Gigabyte zeigt AMD die kalte Schulter, aktualisiert komplettes Aorus- und Aero-Lineup auf Intel Comet-Lake i7/i9-CPUs
Das übliche Spiel: Nachdem Intel die Vorhänge der neuen Comet Lake-H-Mobilprozessoren gelüftet hat, dürfen auch die OEMs ihre neuen Notebook-Modelle für das Jahr 2020 ankündigen. Dabei ist der taiwanesische Hersteller Gigabyte vorne mit dabei und wird nahezu das gesamte Portfolio auf die Intel Core-Prozessoren der zehnten Generation aktualisieren. Dabei deckt der Hersteller ein breites Portfolio ab, konkret geht das Angebot vom Core i7-10750H über den Core i7-10875H bis hin zum offenen Core i9-10980HK.
Wie üblich gibt es dabei signifikante Unterschiede in der Ausstattung im Preis und auch der Leistung. So sollen die 15,6 Zoll großen Aorus 5-Modelle und die 17,3 Zoll-Notebooks Aorus mit Core i7-Prozessoren ab 1.300 respektive 1.400 Euro Dollar erhältlich sein.
Die High-End-Modelle Aorus 15G, 17G und 17X können hingegen auch mit einem neuen Core i9 geordert werden, zudem wurde auch die GPU aktualisiert. So kommen auch GeForce RTX 20 Super-Modelle zum Einsatz. Die Einstiegspreise liegen bei 1.700 bis 2.400 Euro.
Die Modelle Aero 15 und Aero 17 wiederum werden sowohl mit Core i7 als auch mit Core i9 erhältlich sein und bringen ebenfalls eine GeForce RTX 20 Super mit. Die Preise sollen bei 1.600 respektive 2.300 Dollar beginnen, wie bereits im letzten Jahr sind eine OLED- und HDR-Option für das Display verfügbar.
Im Gegensatz zu den inneren Werten bleibt das Äußere unangetastet, das Design dementsprechend gleich. Die Vorbestellung soll bereits in dieser Woche anlaufen, die Auslieferung am 15. April beginnen.

Press release
LOS ANGELES, CA (April 2, 2020) – GIGABYTE, a leading developer of PC enthusiast products, today announced its latest version of AORUS professional gaming notebooks and AERO notebooks for content creators, which boast significant upgrades including a new AORUS chassis design and the most current CPU/GPU generations.
GIGABYTE is the first manufacturer to launch ultra-performance notebooks that feature 10th generation Intel® Core™ i9/i7 H series 8-core CPU and NVIDIA® GeForce RTX 20-series SUPER™ graphics. AORUS has partnered with world renowned G2 Esports to launch brand new gaming notebooks tailored to professional gamers and PC enthusiasts with features such as mechanical keyboards, a 240Hz refresh rate displays, and enhanced cooling technology to redefine the requirements of a professional gaming notebook.
AORUS - Innovative Design for Professional Gaming
In collaboration with G2 Esports, new models include the flagship AORUS 17X desktop replacement notebook, and the AORUS 17G, and AORUS 15G high end models, each tailored to the needs of pro gamers. Upgrades include three 10th gen Intel® processors – overclocking-capable Intel® Core™ i9-10980HK, Intel® Core™ i7-10875H and Intel® Core™ i7-10750H. The i7-10875H, is the first mobile Core i7 processor to feature 8 cores, and 16 threads. In addition to NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 20-series and the GTX 16 series, the all-new flagship NVIDIA® GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER™ and the NVIDIA® GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER™ have been added to enhance media processing speed and gaming performance.
The AORUS 17X, AORUS 17G and AORUS 15G are the lightest notebooks in the industry to feature true mechanical keyboards. AORUS has worked exclusively in partnership with mechanical switch manufacturer, OMRON, to minimize the size of mechanical switches while retaining its quality to create the world’s lightest mechanical keyboard notebook.
“OMRON mechanical keyboards have shortened switch travel distance to an actuation point, capable of matching the input speed of pros. In addition, they offer a phenomenal tactile feel and crisp switch sound feedback, significantly increasing game speed and performance, meeting the precise and rapid in-game control requirements of the pros,” said Steven Chen, VP of the GIGABYTE Mobile Business Center.
First Person Shooter (FPS) world championship tournaments (CS:GO Major & PUBG World Champion) in the recent years have elevated their monitor specifications to 240Hz. With this in mind, AORUS has set this as the standard for the display of all its high-end product series. A 240Hz refresh rate effectively reduces the occurrence of afterimages (ghosting) and broken images (tearing), providing the optimal experience and high-speed visuals required by enthusiasts. To keep up with the latest CPU and GPUs upgrades, AORUS adopted its exclusive WINDFORCE Infinity cooling technology, ensuring that the hardware can perform at its full potential while maintaining stability. The AORUS series forms the pinnacle of high-performance gaming that pro gamers demand.
According to KennyS from G2 Esports, one of the best AWPers in the world, the AORUS 15G’s high portability, high performance, high refresh rate and ultra-light mechanical keyboard help him maintain ace performance in training, gaming and in touring competitions.
AERO - Professional Content Creation Multi-Purpose Application
GIGABYTE’S content creation notebook AERO series has been widely praised since its launch in 2016. Aside from winning multiple awards such as the “2019 European Hardware Association Notebook of the Year” and the “Taiwan Excellence Award”, AERO is a favorite of Jensen Huang (CEO of NVIDIA), who praises it as the model for “next gen high-performance professional notebooks.”
This major upgrade includes enhancements across the entire line. The 15” AERO 15 OLED (Supports 4K resolution and HDR400), AERO 15, 17” AERO 17 HDR (Supports 4K resolution and HDR400) and AERO 17.
“The color display has always been GIGABYTE’s strong selling point,” says Chen. “Most of your average devices for commercial design use display panels with Delta E around 3. Displays with Delta E are considered high standard that people can hardly tell the color difference. GIGABYTE takes it one step further by working with Xrite Pantone, the authority in color display, implementing color calibration and achieves Delta E. Combined with the AMOLED 4K display and HDR True Black high contrast, colors and details can be better displayed, helping content creators flawlessly display their products.”
In addition to CPU and GPU upgrades, cooling has also been improved through the WINDFORCE Infinity technology. AERO utilizes NVIDIA Studio drivers to optimize over 40 editing software packages that content creators often use for improved efficiency.
Equipped with a multitude of connection ports such as Thunderbolt 3, HDMI 2.0, and UHS-II SD card reader, AERO is the epitome of “an ultra-portable notebook with desktop-level performance.”
AERO series also offers 144Hz high refresh rate display to satisfy the different gaming and game development applications. With powerful CPU, GPUs performance and premium I/O interface design, users can play games, stream and surf the internet all at the same time. Its ability to perform multiple functions is why AERO has been dubbed the most versatile notebook.
Pre-ordering of professional gaming notebooks AORUS 17X, AORUS 17G, AORUS 15G and the content creator AERO series are available April 2, with official sales starting April 15. Entry-level premium gaming models AORUS 5 & AORUS 7 are expected to launch in late April. For more information, please visit GIGABYTE/AORUS website: https://www.gigabyte.com/Laptop
