CES 2016: Latest ROG Gaming Laptops
The lucky people at CES 2016 in Las Vegas got to play around with the latest range of ROG gaming laptops (amongst other awesome new gear). For those of you who couldn't make it, don't worry, we're not going to let you miss out. Here are the four (and a half...) gaming laptops on display, each with distinct advantages but they all stay true to the ROG gaming spirit. To have a great experience, a bigger display is always better, that's why there are three 17-inchers and one 15-inch here. Take a look to see which one has your name all over it!
ROG GX700
For those who need the best, this incorporates the world's first liquid-cooling dock which will not only cool but boost the performance of your laptop. This is not for the faint-hearted and (like any other dock actually) not for your lap - it is the conduit at your battle station where you can turn your laptop into a desktop-like beast. On the go, you get incredible gaming power from the overclockable i7 CPU with GTX 980 graphics. And at home, you get desktop-level performance by simply docking the laptop. Only a laptop with GTX 980 graphics like the GX700 here is VR-ready.

If you want to pull out the big guns at the next lan party, a handy carry case to hold everything is included.
ROG G752
For serious gamers who require serious hardware, G752 packs the power to run every game you throw at it, pure and simple.

G752 comes in three flavors - G752VL with GTX 965M, G752VT with GTX 970M and G752VY with GTX 980M. While G752VY (left) is the ultimate beast out of the three in terms of performance, G752VT and G752VL (right) have a slimmer profile and are lighter for portability.

It seems that while Linus was checking out the new ROG XG2, he also stumbled into a secret project (you can skip to 3:00 for it), we wonder what it could be...
