In an AMA in Reddit, Robert Hallock of AMD said: “Ultra-thin notebooks are awesome to carry, but nobody in their right mind would confuse one for a gaming notebook.

External GPUs with standardised connectors, cables, drivers, plug’n’play, OS support, etc.”

They already informed that they might rock the Game Developers Conference next week! AMD has promised us the next-gen ultra-thin gaming laptops which may be powered by Thunderbolt 3 connectivity to give upto 40gbit/s bandwidth.

Specs – Intel® Core™ i7 4xxx, NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 960M, 15.6-inch 4K/UHD 8.2 M colours.

A couple of days or rather a week or two ago, Razor has revealed their external GPU system for their Blade Stealth Gaming Notebook with 4k touch display for the smoothest portable gaming experience. We should wait a week for the Game Developers Conference 2016 to happen and AMD should tell us something good about their ultra-thin gaming laptops.
