Want the market's top gaming laptop? Look no further!
Eric Kuo, associate vice president for global sales, MSI Notebook, explains that the MSI GT70 and GT60 gaming notebook sports Nvidia's flagship GeForce GTX 680M--the fastest discrete graphics card available anywhere. The most powerful discrete graphics card ever, the GeForce GTX 680M sports 1,344 CUDAs (Compute Unified Device Architecture)--three times more than the previous generation. Coupling this with Optimus display switching technology enabled the GT70 and GT60 to score P24,000 points on 3D Mark Vantage, shattering the previous record of P16,000 points made by the last generation. In addition, MSI's exclusive Loading Balance technology harnesses Optimus to meet real systems' needs with the power savings mode, so that their battery last for almost four hours when browsing the Internet--about twice the amount of time offered by comparable notebooks on the market, giving it the longest battery time of any gaming laptop in the world. *Actual battery times will vary depending on settings and how the computer is used.

"The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680M GPU on board the GT60 and GT70 platforms doesn't just deliver the fastest frame rates, it also gives notebook gamers the latest innovation in PC gaming", says Rene Haas, vice-president and general manager of the notebook business unit at NVIDIA. "Gamers get the smoothest visuals, life-like physics and next-gen special effects that they can take anywhere thanks to the NVIDIA Kepler architecture and Optimus Technology."

Kuo went on to say that in addition to offering today's gamers cutting-edge graphic display capabilities that have no problem handling the latest online 3D games as well as amazing sound, the MSI GT70 and GT60 also come with unparalleled peripherals, such as professional Steelseries keyboards, industry-leading professional grade killer E2200 Game Networking, the world's fastest read-write Super RAID Dual SSD, and up to 32G of memory, to meet the needs of serious gamers the world over. The GT70 and GT60 also have over 1,000 lighting effect combos and boast explosively crisp sound. These are the result of MSI's Audio Boost sound solution, AMP, and gold flash audio jack exclusively for earphones which come together to bring the next-generation Dynaudio sound technology to an even higher level of perfection. It's no wonder, therefore, why the MSI GT70 and GT60 represent the best in battle laptops in the world today and is the top choice of the world's top extreme gamers--"Top Player, Top Choice!"

Twice the performance, twice the fun!
Nvidia GeForce GTX 680M--the most powerful discrete graphics card ever: MSI new gen GT70 and GT60 gaming notebooks feature the Nvidia GeForce GTX 680M, the most advanced discrete graphics card in history with 1,344 CUDAs (Compute Unified Device Architecture)--three times the number in the last generation's top performing machines. They also come with up to 4GB GDDR5 of display memory for the ultimate in display performance. And it racked up a record P24,000 on 3D Mark Vantage. What's more, it supports DirectX 11 and Nvidia PhysX, so everything from explosions and battlefield destruction to rippling water and wispy sci fi space scenes are depicted in exquisite detail. It has more than enough to handle this year's latest online 3D games.

Optimus offers both superior display performance and lots of battery time: The Nvidia GeForce GTX 680M discrete graphics card offers the most advanced hardware ever and, aided by MSI's own display technology, it offers you unprecedented high definition 3D graphics. The Optimus display technology automatically performs systems switching for vivid pictures, detailed 3D graphics, smooth flowing animation, and crisply detailed images from space. When not handling high load computations, MSI's Loading Balance technology works with Optimus to switch to the power saving mode, so that the MSI GT70 and GT60 can run on battery power for nearly four hours when surfing the Internet--about twice as long as comparable notebooks on the market, giving it the longest battery time of any gaming laptop in the world. *Actual battery times will vary depending on settings and how the computer is used.

TDE technology: The powerful MSI GT70 and GT60 use MSI's Turbo Drive Engine (TDE) technology, so just one touch of the luminescent TDE hotkey located above the keyboard instantly revs up performance. The GT70 and GT60 also have MSI's own powerful Cooler Boost technology; so again, just one touch of the luminescent hotkey above the keyboard kicks in the powerful cooling function to rapidly reduce system temp to enhance system stability.

Intel 3rd generation Core i7 quad core processor: The GT70 and GT60, MSI's new generation gaming notebooks, feature the Intel third generation Core i7 quad core processor. This cutting-edge processing platform employs 22nm production technology, currently the most advanced on the planet, enhancing processing performance by as much as 15% over the previous generation, while saving power and optimizing cooling capabilities. To kick up performance a few more notches, the new generation Intel Core i7 processor supports Intel Turbo Boost 2.0, a technology which automatically allocates processor resources in accordance with processor load, thereby enhancing the core speed of each core to maximize computer performance.

Super RAID design and up to 32GB of memory: MSI's GT70 and GT60 come equipped with four DDR3 memory slots for up to 32GB of memory. They also feature MSI's own Super RAID technology with 256G dual SSD optional. Using accelerated dual solid state drive (SSD) architecture not only gives this machine twice the storage capacity, it also cranks up read speed by some 540% over traditional HDD Raid 0 to as high as 1000MB/s, with write speeds increasing to 800MB/s. In addition to booting up more quickly, it more than satisfies the demand for faster reading capabilities required for the battle scenes and awesome effects of the latest games out there, giving you an edge in the thick of combat. The awesome write speeds increase work performance for individuals that work with graphics, such as designers and film editors, making work much easier. (See table below)
