New Graphics Card for Gaming Laptops
The new Nvidia GeForce GTX 560M graphics card is made especially for gaming laptops. New laptops from makers like Asus feature 3D graphics made possible by the powerful new card. It comes with a choice of Intel Core i5 and i7 quad-core processors, and a twin-fan design to dissipate all the heat generated from running graphics-intensive games. The pricing hasn't been announced yet, but this should be revealed along with other details in the near future.
Another new gaming laptop from MSI is the GT683R, which starts at $1,599.99. It makes use of the new Nvidia card and also offers 12GB of RAM, a 1TB hard drive and a full HD display. Toshiba is offering a pair of new Qosmio gaming laptops as well, one featuring 3D capabilities and the other without. The 3D version of the Qosmio X770 features a 1,920×1,080 17.3 inch 3D screen. Both systems will launch this quarter in Europe, but a US release date has yet to be announced.
