The right-hand edge features the power button, which lights up red when turned on, along with 4 dedicated buttons.
The 1st button switches between the Intel GPU and NVIDIA GPU, the 2nd button turns the Fans up to 100% (caution, loud), the 3rd button launches X-Split and the 4th toggles through different keyboard lighting configurations.
The underside is roughly a 50:50 ratio of a tough plastic chassis and venting for the immense cooling required. The heatsinks inside feature 9 copper heatpipes to help dissipate the heat produced by the i9 CPU and GTX 1080 GPU, both of which are capable of pushing out around 150w of heat, each.
The left edge is dominated by a massive heat vent, which is a bit of a theme with the GT75, to ensure heat build up isn’t a problem. There’s also three USB 3.1 Gen. 2 ports and four 3.5mm audio jacks.
The right is pretty similar, with another two USB 3.1 Gen. 2 ports, an SD card reader and a Kensington Lock, which will be vital if taking this to any kind of public event.
The rear unfortunately doesn’t house any USB Type-A ports; even one would have done in this instance, for a mouse or pointing device. However, we do get an HDMI 2.0 port, capable of 4K60. A USB 3.1 Gen. 2 Type-C (Thunderbolt), Mini Display Port and Gigabit Ethernet. The round socket with four pins is the power connection from the two power supplies.
