The 17.3-inch Eurocom P7 Pro is based on the latest 15.6-inch Clevo P750ZM design we introduced in the Eurocom P5 Pro Extreme. As mentioned in our previous review, these systems are designed to handle LGA1150 socket desktop processors with overclocking potential. The end result is a performance level that’s higher than even the best gaming laptops currently available from Alienware, Asus, or MSI. Let’s see how far we can push this top-tier Eurocom console.
Clevo is moving away from the bulky, boxy and boring look of past models in favor of something more modern, but not too outlandish to the point of sacrificing any accessibility. Barebone manufacturers are still using heavy-duty ABS matte plastic to provide a more professional and sturdy quality compared to the aluminum solutions that other gaming laptops might use. The outer cover and palm rest are lightly rubberized to provide a more premium feel rather than just hard plastic. However, this does attract fingerprints and grease more easily. The bottom edge tapers very noticeably, making the laptop look thinner than it actually is As a result, its front edge is only 16mm thick, while its rear edge is 38mm thick.
The build quality is very good considering the size of the device. The base is sturdy and doesn’t twist or cause major warping when pressure is applied to the center of the keyboard. The hinge can reach a maximum angle of 135 degrees, so the display won’t wobble when typing. Applying pressure to the center of the cover will still cause some slight warping, as will twisting the display from side to side, but it’s mostly minor enough to not be a cause for concern. The bezels are slightly smaller, but feel thicker than the Eurocom X7’s thin plastic bezels.
Compared to other popular 17.3-inch gaming laptops, the Eurocom is thinner and smaller than the MSI GT72 and the particularly thick Asus ROG G751. Some laptops are indeed thinner, such as the Alienware 17 R2, but this Eurocom comes with a more demanding CPU and cooling system than the models listed here. In fact, the P7 Pro weights about the same as the GT72 (3.85kg vs 3.82kg), despite the obvious size difference between them. communicationWLAN comes standard with Intel 7265 supporting 802.11ac, Bluetooth 4.0, and dual-band (2×2) connectivity up to 867 Mbps. Qualcomm Killer 1525 options are also available for more gaming-centric features and optimizations. We had no issues with our Intel M .2 module when connected to our home network.
AccessoriesEurocom comes right out of the box with a quick start manual and a driver and utility CD. Also included are extra screws and some thermal paste. Carrying cases, VGA adapters and other cables are available directly from the dealer.

Compared to competing models, the P7 Pro’s brightness and contrast are just as good. The Alienware 17 R2’s display is slightly better overall in terms of color accuracy and grayscale, and requires no calibration. Alienware 17 R2 battery lifePairing a 65 W CPU with a 100 W GTX 980M without Optimus will naturally result in excessive battery life. Under optimal conditions, we were able to squeeze out a little over 2.5 hours of idle time in battery saver mode at lowest brightness. Runtime will be reduced when using Wi-Fi or playing games, but only by an hour or so at most.
The removable 82 Wh lithium-ion battery pack has a slightly smaller capacity than competing 17.3-inch gaming models. For example, the Alienware 17 R2 has nearly 20% more Alienware 17 R2 battery power. The benefits of owning an Optimus are clear from the comparison chart below. We can easily say that the Eurocom P7 Pro is the best 17.3-inch gaming laptop in terms of raw performance and features. You won’t find a laptop anywhere else that has a standard LGA1150 slot, an MXM 3.0b slot , and PCIe x4 expansion all in one package. Its respectable CPU overclocking potential, excellent Boost performance, and customizable fan controls are just gravy on the otherwise solid Clevo platform. Tinkerers and hobbyists don’t need to look elsewhere for end-user customization and extensibility.
Meanwhile, the new Core i7-5775C far outperforms the current mobile champion, the i7-4980HQ, in multi-core benchmarks, and its extensive overclocking headroom puts it very close to the more power-hungry Core i7-4790K.
There’s room for improvement, such as adding dedicated macro keys, additional legacy ports, and higher-capacity battery options. The 1080p display is great, but not as impressive as the rest of the notebook. TheEurocom P7 Pro’s short battery life and loud fan noise while gaming are also obvious drawbacks of this type of system. Even so, these are minor quibbles in what is an excellent, stable, and expensive gaming system.
We can easily say that the Eurocom P7 Pro is the best 17.3-inch gaming laptop in terms of raw performance and features.
