THE GT680: MSI GAMING LAPTOP MEETS INTEL SANDY BRIDGE




Now that Intel have finally made the second generation Intel Core a.k.a the “Sandy Bridge” family of processors official (more on that later today), it is time to brace the release of products based on them. One of them is the new MSI GT680 laptop which belongs to MSI’s long running gaming laptop series.

Powered by the new 2.0GHz Intel Core i7-2630QM quad-core processor, the Intel Turbo Boost 2.0 technology within it is able to kick its speed further; up to 2.9GHz. On the graphic side of the business, the 15.6-inch laptop is equipped with enthusiast-level and DirectX 11-ready NVIDIA GeForce GTX 460M GPU with 1.5GB of GDDR5 memory. Combined them with the laptop’s four memory slot that are able to hold memories up to 16GB, what you have here is a gaming laptop that is able to excel the industry standard 3DMark test with a score of more than 18,000 according to MSI.
