Gigabyte Aorus X3 Plus R7 Gaming Notebook Review

Synthetic Benchmarks


3DMark Firestrike

Straight away, the X3 is putting out great scores, running faster than the Samurai, which also sports the same GTX 1060. Of course, the GTX 1070 equipped P56XT from Gigabyte is a bit faster here, but that’s to be expected.

Unigine Superposition 1080p Extreme

Again similar results, with the X3 sitting in the middle with a respectable score of 2259.

PCMark 10

I’m starting to see a patern here. All these systems have the same i7 CPU, so they’re scoring quite similar. However, factoring in memory speeds, storage and cooling all effect the overall performance. Either way, this is a rock solid score and tells us the X3 is going to be a great all-round day-to-day system.

WPrime 32M and 1024M

Interestingly, the GPU may be sitting in the middle of the charts, but the CPU put out our fastest WPrime scores. This tells me it’s likely cooling the CPU a little better and able to maintain a higher clock speed for longer.

Cinebench R15

Cinebench scores are all aobu the same here, with very little difference between any of the notebooks tested.

Handbrake MP4 to MKV Conversion 4K

Another competitive score for Handbrake. Sure, not many are going to use a gaming notebook to transcode 4K video files, but it’ll get the job done if needed. Just be prepared for a noisy fan, as this is a very demanding workload for any system.

As a child still in my 30's (but not for long), I spend my day combining my love of music and movies with a life-long passion for gaming, from arcade classics and retro consoles to the latest high-end PC and console games. So it's no wonder I write about tech and test the latest hardware while I enjoy my hobbies!
