How's does the 130w 3080 perform compared to a 130w 3070?

I had the 16 "shared" vram version. 130w vs a 3070 140w would have similar performance, problems with this unit is the firstly the software, it's janky af, sometimes it doesn't work , or resets to default settings after restarts , also has a lot of Chinese lettering in the software too. Second . The keys seemed small or/and to close together making weird to type on , third no mux . For this price point you'll be better off with a 3070 with 140w Tdp with a qhd, maybe around 17" screen

8GB 3080 - other Aorus models have a 16GB 3080.

I actually liked this laptop for the most part. I returned it just because of FHD. I just can't take 1080 screens anymore. Beyond that, honestly it was a great laptop.

Bought a Legion 7 3080, which was amazing, but it had a bad panel and they couldn't replace it.

Now I'm waiting for a Prometheus XVII 5900/3070, which will be awesome if the screen isn't bad. We'll see.

It's something else to consider.

I prefer a 17" QHD screen, but it's not a fit for everyone.

Not really a comparison.

17" @ almost a $1000 more for similar specs.

It's not. The XVII with a 3070 has a mux switch. The gigabyte does not.

Performance wise the Prometheus 3070 will out perform this laptop in almost every sense with a significantly nicer screen. I just bought one for $1700.

A Prometheus 3080 with 1tb drive 32gb ram is 2800. Also. It's a 17" where this is a 15.6.

I'm glad you like your laptop, but they do not compare well in this thread.

You're correct, it's not a good comparison. The XVII, even with a 3070, is significantly better for less. No comparison.

As I stated, the gigabyte is a great laptop. Very solid. One can't go wrong with this laptop as long as one is happy with a FHD screen.

Honestly this is a much better deal:

https://www.eluktronics.com/Prome...XVI-3080BF

Same exact panel (literally) as the legion 7. 5900 + 3080 165 hz HDR.
