EVGA is now shipping the the SC17 1080 gaming laptop.
The new EVGA SC17 1080 is only slightly changed from its predecessor, the SC17 1070. It still features an overclockable Intel Core i7-7820HK Kaby Lake processor, 32GB (2x16GB) DDR4-2666 memory, a 256GB M.2 PCIe NVMe SSD, a 1TB 7,200RPM HDD, and a 17.3” 3840 x 2160 IPS display with Nvidia G-Sync onboard.
The SC17 1080 now packs three USB 3.0 ports, in addition to the USB 3.1 Type-C port, giving it enough connectivity to run an Oculus Touch setup, which the SC17 1070 lacked . Making this rig a mobile VR gaming powerhouse.
Both the CPU and GPU are overclockable using EVGA’s Precision XOC Mobile software or a hotkey preset (SC mode or downclock with EOC hotkeys), and the keyboard’s LED backlighting can also be controlled using the company-branded software.
The EVGA SC17 hits the scales at 8.93lbs.
The EVGA SC17 1080 is available now on EVGA’s website for $3,000.
