Reviews for the Asus GX800VH Prototype

Asus ROG GX800VH review - the world's most powerful gaming laptop?
Source: Euro Gamer Archive.org version
If you have to ask how much the GX800VH is, the chances are you won't be able to afford it. Prices aren't clear yet, but in a world where the previous model featured a single GTX 980 and sets you back anything up to 5000 Euros, we can't imagine it will be any cheaper. It's hard to imagine that these systems find an audience when a dual Titan X Pascal desktop system would probably be cheaper, but all the major manufacturers have their own massively expensive flagships too. Clearly there is an audience.

Because of the large TDP of 45 W / 55 W, the CPU is only intended for large laptops.
