Aorus Master 18 – RTX 5080 は 2025 年に主流となるでしょうか?
The Aorus Master 18 is Gigabyte’s take on a modern gaming laptop with an 18-inch screen, and they pretty much nailed it on their first try.
Yes, the chunky laptop is big, can get loud, and will raise some eyebrows in the boardroom, but with the stellar MiniLED display, a ton of ports, and performance that matches the somewhat aggressive styling, you are well-covered for your virtual entertainment needs.
It also seems like the mobile RTX5080 might be the sweet spot for powerful mobile GPUs in 2025 since it performs very well, even compared to its bigger 5090 sibling, while actually being quite a bit cheaper at the same time.

Honestly the rtx 5080 is reasonably priced. the omen max with a core ultra 9 and rtx 5080 and 64gb of ram is only 3000 while the rtx 5090 balloons to 3800 for 15 percent better performance
The master 16 is priced at $2500 for a 5080 and an 240hz OLED Screen
Are Gigabyte back after screwing up the Aero line in 2021?
So there is no new laptop comes with ports in rear like previouse gen Legion?
Waiting for the Razer Blade 18 review, given that they finally added a numpad.
Another super helpful review thank you. I’ve got the 2023 IPS 4090 Blade 18 and wondered if you think one of the mini led 18 inch options will feel like a worthwhile upgrade this year ?
Yeaaa that’s laptop is too loud for my liking
Meiner kam heute an 😀 bin gespannt. musste unbedingt durch die Trump Zölle doch noch schnell einen kaufen /= man weiß ja nicht wie es sich entwickelt
9955hx3d vs 285hx when?. Sorry for asking
Why there's no amd x 3d cpus i don't know while having similar tdp and temp as the Intel hx ones
Finally… aorus master 18.
Thank you.. now I will concentrate on watching..
very big improvement this year from Gigabyte
1100$ cheaper than 5090 for like 20% less performance, thats for the scar18, for aorus seems to be 1k cheaper.
Its just not worth getting 5090 unless you are rich
There is a big difference in 2.5k mini vs 4k mini uhd display in laptop? Example aorus master 18 and msi Titan 18hx
When you review the 5090 version of it?
You are running this cpu at 95w? In all test?
Gigabyte is such a mystery when it comes to cpu/gpu/fan control in linux.
Pitty that there are no connections on the backside – especially for the bigger cables for power supply, HDMI and ethernet. I understand the problems with the cooling but at this price there should be a solution for it. What helps the best design when you have permanently at least this nasty power supply cable in the view. I rely like this laptop but the distribution of the connectors is a reason for me not to buy it. Luckily there are other manufacturer on the marked like Acer or Alienware which sees this as I do ….. Also for the audio connector they found the worst place they could find – at least for right hand mouse users.
Hi sorry to ask again but I think u are from Germany and they had the IPS panels for zephyrus. Did you manage to see it in person ? Is it good enough for so old technology ? As mentioned previously I’m battling myself between ips and oled screen for zephyrus. I could snatch a 5070 ti for 2999 from Spain , the IPS / oled amd 2024 variants cost like 2599 euro as of now.
Why you not tested it in silence mode? Or its no silence mode there?
Still waiting for the neo 16 full review. especially with the oasis mk2 combo.
I'm thinking to buy the scar, but what u say , is this better or the scar , especially for the screen, I don't need to upgrade my ssd to 6tb cause thats just alot and it cost money to upgrade, it's not free , so what u say , which is better
I'm loving my Aorus 16x 5080, but does anyone know how to unlock the advance menu in the bios? Are we going to be able to overclock / under volt? Coming from a MSI 18 raider HX , that was one of my favorite features.
Can this laptop hold on for over night neural network training? 10+ hours GPU usage maxed out? continuously? did you test this?
Is the letter "C" shown during the noise test referring to temperature?
Does the WASD part of the keyboard get really hot like my MSI Vector?
Hey NotebookMaster, please help me decide.
Lenovo Legion 7i Pro with RTX 5090 for €3560 or ASUS ROG Strix Scar 18 with RTX 5080 for €4000?
The only thing that bothers me a bit about the Lenovo is the OLED screen being quite reflective, but otherwise I think both are awesome.
seeing this makes me glad i went with the MSI Raider A18HX AMD Ryzen R9-7945HX3D with the rtx 4090, its just such a beast and gives me no reason to upgrade for a good bit.
what would you say impressed you more, the strix scar 18 or aurus master 18? im looking to buy one of the 2 just so lost which is the better option. i am a data analyst so sql and python and powerbi and a gamer. i mostly play competitive game but story mode games i never really use ultra settings i usually go medium high as i dont see the difference much and love to see smooth fps. would the 5080 or 5090 be the better option?
What's the price?
No nice to see so much room for expandability.
Oof, PWM. I feel like my eyes will be suffering in this era of OLED and MiniLed based displays.
Best🎉
Is an alienware 18 Area-51 also in line for a review anytime soon?
That was loud I’m looking for the best performance and silent gaming laptop
Still no Rammstein? You must be a Frenchman in disguise. 😎
18 is the new 17, 16 is the new 15. Which is good.
Gonna buy new laptop this spring, no good 18" options on the market for me so far. So it will be 16 most likely.
(just big screen, fast cpu, as silent as possible)
