NVIDIA could launch the GTX 1080m and the enthusiast version of the GTX 1080 and GTX 1070 for laptops in Q3 2016 with the possibility of co-existing with each other.

Earlier reports have claimed that there would be no GTX 1080m but the Aorus X7 Pro has already been revealed to sport even two of the cards inside the gaming laptop through SLI. Others now claim that NVIDIA will also launch the GTX 1080 and the GTX 1070 for laptops just like what they did with the GTX 980 in 2015.

One of the main problems of today's laptops is that they do not perform as well as their desktop counterparts. There are some exceptions but the user should be willing to pay an absurd amount of money to get a good device.

The Aorus X7 Pro is one of those exceptions with its 17.3-inch 4K screen and 120Hz refresh rate plus 5ms response time, TweakTown has learned. With two GTX 1080m cards inside, there is no doubt that it could reach up to 100 frames per second even on the most taxing games.

Additional specs include PCIE SSDs, 64GB DDR4 RAM and a quad-core Intel Core i7 Skylake processor. It also features the RGB Fusion keyboard that allows users to customize the lighting colors.

NVIDIA is also set to launch the GTX 1080 and GTX 1070 for gaming notebooks and laptops, WCCFTech reported. They could be more powerful than the GTX 1080m considering that they will not be dumbed down version of the desktop cards.

The laptop cards will still have the same number of CUDA cores, texture units and raster devices. Perhaps the differences will be seen in the clock speed and the memory type as the 1080 for laptop will only have GDDR5 instead of the desktop's GDDR5X.

NVIDIA fans will just have to wait for the $2699 Aorus X7 Pro to confirm if the GTX 1080m does exist this summer. The GTX 1080 and GTX 1070 for gaming laptops are expected to be released through third-party manufacturers in Q3 2016 but the notebook models may be teased earlier than usual.
