Samsung’s new 700G7A gaming laptop announced at Gamescon is a beast. Really. Packed with a Core i7 running @ 2 GHz, 16 GB of RAM, a 17.3 1920 x 1080 display and monstrous AMD 6970M GPU w/ 2 GB RAM mean this is the laptop to take gaming — if size is a concern. While there are certainly more powerful gaming laptops on the market, they either (1) only last ~20 minutes on battery power or (2) are as thick as a 1980′s book on nuclear physics. The 700G7A by comparison is pretty slim as far as gaming laptops go.

A shipping price in stock configuration of $2600 is a lot of money for sure. But you get what you pay for. Not to mention, miniaturization costs money.
