Testing
We tested the Gigabyte Aero 15X v8 using 3D Mark, Cinebench R15, Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Wildlands, Ashes of the Singularity Classic, Middle-earth:Shadow of War, Far Cry 5 and Rise of the Tomb Raider to give both the CPU and GPU a through workout.
CPU and Gaming Performance
The combination of Core i7-8750H and GTX 1070 Max-Q delivers impressive Full HD performance with typical frame rates around 70fps. There is no doubt in our mind the Gigabyte Aero 15X v8 is a serious gaming laptop, and added to that the Cinebench R15 score tells us that it can also be used for work such as video editing.
