WE’RE BIG FANS of 15-inch laptops. They’re large enough to give you the screen real estate needed to play games without squinting, but not so large (looking at you, 17-inchers) that they require a special gaming laptop backpack to lug around all day. They’re the form factor that lets a portable gaming machine feel portable.

Asus’s ROG Strix GL502VS delivers on portability. Measuring only 1.18 inches (30mm) thick, it’s one of the thinner GTX 1070 laptops we’ve tested, fitting into a new breed of portable pixel-pushers that don’t require massive jet engines to cope with the heat output of mobile graphics chips.
