Thinnest notebook from GTX 980 launch lineup is Aorus X7 DT:

While it's not yet listed on Aorus site, it's quite likely chassis would be same/similar to its older sibling Aorus X7 Pro:

This was 2x GTX 970M SLI model, pretty slim at ~23 mm with 3 kg weight.

I wonder though how well cooling will work with GTX 980. All previous Aorus models kinda struggled with cooling, and that was with less powerful GPUs (albeit SLI).

Out of announced notebooks, the least weird ones are MSI GT72 and Clevo P775DM:

Pity they didn't include also 15" sibling of that Clevo chassis (P750DM). That one would be pretty awesome.



From your reference:

The first notebooks with the GTX 980 GPU will come by the end of this month. [1]
