GIGABYTE AORUS & AERO 2023 Laptop Buying Guide: Which is Best for You?

2023 has seen a large uptick in the number of people that are looking to start using a high-performance laptop. This is thanks to vast improvements that have been made to computer hardware recently with regard to performance and efficiency. People are looking to take advantage of the abundance of new processing cores in the latest generation CPUs and take advantage of the huge leap in graphics performance. 

Purchasing a high-performance laptop is now a fantastic choice for gamers and content creators alike; however, with so many options being available, it can be daunting to know which laptop you should opt for. In 2023, GIGABYTE offers a variety of options of its own. This guide aims to clarify the choices for you, enabling you to discover the ideal laptop that meets your requirements.

Powerful Gaming in a Portable Package - AORUS 17 / 15 

With an ultra-sleek metal chassis as thin as 20.8mm, the AORUS 17 and AORUS 15 laptops have been completely redesigned for gamers looking for a reliable, high-performance gaming laptop that is perfect for gaming on the go. If you are a dedicated PC gamer who travels often, this stylish and slender duo can be a very smart investment.

When it comes to the processing power, they support up to Intel 13th Gen i7 H CPUs. Driving the graphics of the laptops you will find an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 laptop GPU with Dynamic Boost technology to take your gaming even further. If that’s not enough, the AORUS 17 supports 140W Max TGP. 

The laptops also make use of the revamped WINDFORCE Infinity cooling technology. This time the AORUS 17 has a triple-fan design consisting of 6 heat pipes, whilst the AORUS 15 opts for a dual-fan design with 5 heat pipes. These fans come equipped with blades that are up to 50% thinner than previous generations. These changes result in a chassis that is 27% thinner while also providing up to 103% more cooling area than before while keeping the noise level down to a minimum.

Both laptops offer MUX Switch Technology as well for maximum performance. This feature allows gamers to bypass the integrated GPU, allowing the dedicated GPU to take over for higher performance, higher frame rates, and less latency when running demanding games.

Super Lightweight with Discrete Graphics - AERO 14 OLED

Whether you're a content creator in search of a productivity workhorse on the go, a student seeking a portable companion that lasts all day on a single battery charge, or a multi-hyphenate in need of a machine for your multitasking lifestyle, the AERO 14 OLED is the perfect choice.

The AERO 14 OLED is highly portable, weighing only 1.49 kg and measuring just 17mm in thickness. Despite its small size, it is powered by Intel 13th Gen Core i7-13700H CPU and up to GeForce RTX 4050 GPU, which can handle photo and 4K video editing tasks efficiently, making it ideal for those who are frequently on the move.

The laptop is also complemented by a stunning display. The 14-inch 2.8K QHD+ OLED display has a 16:10 aspect ratio, a cinema-grade DCI-P3 100% wide color gamut, and is factory-calibrated and Pantone-validated, just like its bigger brother. The laptop also includes TÜV Rheinland eyesafe® 2.0 and Low Blue Light certifications, giving you a flicker-free viewing experience and easing eye strain.

The laptop is a workhorse, too, boasting a 63Wh battery that can handle the needs of an entire working day upon a single charge. Even when the battery is running low, the laptop can be charged back to 50% in just 30 minutes with fast charging via USB-C.
