Hands-on with Asus ROG G752 and GeForce GTX 1070 (or holy crap this thing is fast!)

▤ Summary

You already know the GeForce GTX 1070 is a tremendous value because, well, you’re getting original Titan X performance at less than half the price tag. Nvidia claims up to a 76-percent jump over a GeForce GTX 980M from its new GPUs, and I’m seeing pretty much that with our results. Moving on to an actual game, Tomb Raider Ultimate also opens up a wide gap—the closest GeForce GTX 980 laptop is about 30 percent slower. Even though our review of the desktop GTX 1070 said its comfort zone is at 2560x1440 resolution, I decided to hook up our ROG G752 to a 4K panel to see how it performs. To be fair to the Asus laptop with its quad-core chip, our GPU zero point uses an 8-core CPU, which 3DMark factors into its final score.
