The Gigabyte Aero 14 laptop measures 0.8 inches thick and weighs about 4.2 pounds. It’s hardly the thinnest and lightest notebook around, but it’s surprisingly compact considering the amount of horsepower it packs.

Gigabyte’s latest 14 inch laptop is aimed at gamers and features an Intel Core i7-6700HQ processor, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970M graphics, and a 94.24 Wh battery for up to 10 hours of battery life (or less, while gaming).

And that’s just the tip of the iceberg… but those premium specs come with a premium price tag. First unveiled in May, the Gigabyte Aero 14 is now available in the US for $1599.

  • 16GB of RAM
  • 512GB solid state drive
  • 802.11ac WiFI

  • Windows 10 Home

The laptop has an HDMI port, a mini DisplayPort, three USB 3.0 ports, and one USB 3.1 Type-C port. There are stereo 1.5 watt speakers, an SD card reader, and an HD webcam.
