Taipei--MSI has continued to make breakthroughs in cutting-edge gaming notebooks. Not only have its top-of-the-line GT series gaming laptops snatched the Computex 2012 Best Choice, MSI has won recognition from the global media, winning Best Media Choice several times. MSI has also continued to push the envelope in terms of high performance and functions, while keeping prices affordable. A prime example, the GX60 gaming laptop, offers serious gamers the best of both worlds--performance and affordability. It packs the latest AMD platform with A10-5750M quad core architecture, built-in HD8650G performance-grade DirectX11 for superior video resolution, AMD's top end, new generation HD7970M discrete graphics card, as well as MSI's Eyefinity triple-screen output to name just a few of its features.
This GX60 laptop with souped up processor also comes with the newest limited edition of Hitman Absolution, including the game serial number, so you can download a legal copy. In addition, the GX60 comes in a limited edition Hitman Absolution box with a mouse pad that has a Hitman Absolution themed design and hot key cheat sheet printed on it to help you get the hang of the game as quickly as possible. It also includes a SilverBaller dog tag, not available for sale on the market, produced in limited quantities especially for players who purchase the Hitman Absolution limited edition MSI GX60 laptop computer.
More power to you
Eric Kuo, associate vice president for global sales, MSI Notebook, pointed out that there is no question that the upgraded GX60 being promoted by MSI has the best price to performance ratio of any serious gaming notebook in the world today. In addition to packing AMD's latest APU A10-5750M quad core processor, AMD's top end HD7970M 2GB discrete graphics card, and MSI's Eyefinity triple screen output, it also sports a durable SteelSeries keyboard designed specifically with the extreme gamer in mind, a Killer Gaming Networking card, twin SSD Super RAID with mSATA interface, Audio Boost (the best headset sound output solution for laptops) with AMP and a gold-plated earphone jack for unmatched signal and sound quality, as well as up to 16GB of primary memory.
Better performance and visuals
AMD's new gen A10-4600M quad-core processor: MSI's latest generation gaming laptop, the GX60 comes equipped with AMD's newest A10-4600M quad-core processor. This upgraded APU increases overall system performance by 10~15% over earlier versions, while optimizing power saving and heat dissipation.
The latest built-in AMD HD8650G display chip saves power, while providing superior DirectX11 high resolution display performance as well as three graphics output interfaces--Mini Display Port, HDMI, and D-Sub--to provide the industry's only Eyefinity triple-display full HD output with synchronized, identical resolution or unsynchronized, varied resolution options to greatly broaden gaming field-of-vision. It supports up to three full HD monitors at the highest resolution settings and meets the requirements for multiple screen output with high performance for multiple users. What's more, the latest HDMI 1.4b and Display Port 1.2 broadband interface offers super high 4096 x 2160 resolution, making the GX60 ideal for medical applications and professional graphics designers.
New gen AMD HD7970M 2GB display card: MSI's new GX60 gaming laptop packs the latest high-end AMD HD7970M 3D discrete graphics card with 256-bit frequency and 2GB GDDR5 display memory design and supports ultra-high quality resolution DirectX 11, racking up some P4700 points on the 3D Mark 11 DirectX11 special effects performance test.
In addition, it plays load-heavy 3D games as smoothly as silk even when set to ultra or full HD resolution. Take the limited edition Hitman Absolution as a case in point. With the A10-5750M processor, the HD7970M display card, and the AMD series display card optimized for the game, the GX60 runs at 25 more Frames Per Second (FPS), even when at full HD and using Ultra settings, than products of its competitors, giving you a much smoother game and superior price to performance ratio.
In most non-heavy load situations, the GX60 utilizes the HD8650G's internal display feature to provide power-sipping energy use when using multiple screens, but when running heavy-load 3D programs, such as games, the system automatically switches to the HD7970M's top-of-the-line display card which handles the most detailed games with ease, giving you more realistic sound and visuals.
Super RAID architecture offers ultra-high speed data storage performance: MSI's newest GX60 gaming notebook computer with AMD platform features Super RAID technology developed by MSI with optional SSD for maximum performance. The RAID 0 high performance accelerated architecture doubles the GX60's storage capacity and throttles up hard disk reading speeds to more than 900MB/s--some 10 times faster than traditional single core 7200 RPM HDD. This not only greatly reduces boot up speeds, it is also more than enough for read-writing and ripping large quantities of data as well as for the complex high-load graphics of the latest games, keeping you one step ahead of your opponents.
Peripherals designed for extreme gaming
SteelSeries professional gaming keyboard: Responding to the need of gamers for a keyboard designed just for you, MSI collaborated with leader in gaming peripherals SteelSeries to equip MSI's newest generation gaming laptop with a keyboard designed just for them. Not only is it twice as durable as traditional keyboards and the responsiveness of the keys like that of desktop computers, the Windows start key has been relocated to the right side of the keyboard to greatly reduce the likelihood that you're going to hit it accidently in the heat of battle.
Professional Killer Gaming Networking: It's not uncommon to lose when playing online games, because of slow network transmission. The GX60 comes with Killer Gaming Networking which greatly reduces latency/ping in LAN games to ensure smooth online gaming and eliminates incorrect commands resulting from network lag. The enhanced online performance keeps you a step ahead of your foe, so you can come out ahead.
MSI Audio Boost solution: MSI's Audio Boost sound technology ensures that gamers can also enjoy superior wrap-around stereo sound when using headphones on their GX60, because it employs the gold-plated Gold Flash audio jack which boasts ultra-low resistance, unparalleled conductivity, enhanced antioxidation, better transmission performance, and reduced noise to give you cleaner, crisper stereo sound reproduction. In addition, the embedded power amplifying chip (AMP) ensures top-quality stereo sound in high-end earphones, so you can hear dialog with comrades-in-arms more clearly and what's happening around you in the game and from which direction. The audio solution is ideal for serious gamers and music lovers alike.
USB 3.0: The MSI GX60 also sports the latest USB 3.0 port with transmission speeds of up to 4.8Gbps--10 times faster than USB 2.0, so a 4.8GB HD DVD movie is transferred in a mere 8 seconds. Power transmission has also been ratcheted up 80% to 0.9 amperes to greatly enhance data transfer and recharging performance on external hard drives, flash drives, and various handheld devices.
