AORUS 17X laptop with 16-core Alder Lake-HX series processor

No official announcement has been made by Intel about the introduction of the new Alder Lake-HX series processors, but that did not stop GIGABYTE from trying to list the new AORUS 17X laptop with an Intel Core i9-12900HX 16-core processor. This is a new series of Intel processors based on the desktop silicon class with 8 functional cores instead of 6 cores, and is now available in the Alder Lake-H / P series laptop.

The new GIGABYTE laptop with Intel Core i9-12900HX CPU will probably be the company’s flagship gaming product. The 16-core Intel processor with a boost frequency of up to 5.0GHz sits next to the RTX 3080 Ti laptop with a 130 watt TDP.

This Nvidia GPU is based on the latest GA103 laptop graphics card technology. This system is based on the HM670 motherboard and has 64 GB of DDR5-4800 RAM. The new GIGABYTE AORUS 17X laptop, which weighs 2.7 kg and has a display with a resolution and refresh rate of 1080p 360Hz, is by no means a lightweight product designed for easy carrying.

The 280-watt power supply that comes with this laptop will probably add to its overall weight. Intel has not yet officially confirmed the release of its Alder Lake-HX series processor, but the company is expected to confirm the release of these products in an official announcement soon, possibly in May.

According to some previous speculations, the Alder Lake-HX series of processors will be designed and released for mobile workstations, but with the news of the new Gigabyte laptop using the sixteen-core Intel CPU, it is now clear that These CPUs will also be available for high-end gaming systems.
