The Gigabyte Aorus 17X is an absolute beast. When it isn't pumping out 60fps of ray-traced FHD graphics on its gorgeous display, it multitasks resource-intensive projects like a professional desktop. One of the most powerful gaming laptops we've tested, it's price-to-power ratio makes it an objectively great value - but only if you can stomach the initial price tag.

Gigabyte's impressive Aorus 17 line of gaming laptops distinguishes itself from a lot of competitors with the excellent mechanical keyboard it added to the year's models. That, plus its better-than-average performance and big, 17-inch 240Hz display make it a solid choice as a desktop replacement for the work-from-home, speed-minded gamer. But if you plan to shell out the big bucks -- over $3,000 -- for the higher-end configurations, you might find some of its limitations annoying given the expense.

An expensive beast of a gaming machine, but one with some seriously pleasing specs and plenty of highlights that make it worthwhile to consider if you want a desktop replacement.

The Aorus 17X is expensive and heavy but when it comes down to performance there is no denying this thing is a behemoth. Throw games, work and more at this thing and it will handle it with ease. Make sure you have a comfy set of headphones though as the noise of the cooling solution will drive you mad. Overall the Aorus 17X is a fantastic desktop replacement if you're the type that once went to LANs and hopes to go again in the future. Great showing from Gigabyte here.

This all comes with a cost of course, and it's a high one. Check the widgets on this page for the latest pricing, but at the time of writing you're looking at paying very close to £4,000 or $4,000 to get your hands on this beast of a laptop. In other words, you can buy a decent car for the price of the Gigabyte Aorus 17X, but if you're keen for your hard-earned money to go towards one of the most powerful gaming laptops on the planet, then this is where you want to invest.
