Netbook for games!

ASUS is preparing a gift for gamers, or maybe even a “competitor” for mini consoles;)?



With dimensions of 28x19x3 cm and a weight of 1 kg (for reference, laptops are ~ 38 cm long, weight ~ 2.6 kg), this gift can claim the title of best seller.

Judge and see for yourself, an elite version of ASUS Eee PC - ASUS N10






Processor: Intel Atom N270 1.6 GHz
Screen size: 10.2 inches

And now goodies:
discrete graphics card nVidia GeForce 9300M GS ,
320 GB hard drive,
2 GB RAM,
Wi-Fi and Bluetooth network interfaces,
D-Sub and HDMI !

Of course, the GeForce 9300M GS is far from claiming the laurels of the fastest mobile accelerator, but it’s at least 3-4 times faster than the integrated Intel 945 GSE video core, which allows you to play your favorite games.

By the way, the price of the novelty is promised at the level of 700 dollars.

Here is a video entitled “How to play on a netbook”,
I’ll notice it on a regular netbook (in this case, MSI Wind) without a discrete graphics card.

Here about the dual-core ATOM Atom 2-x
As expected, the 2-core version was made up of 2 Atom N270 crystals arranged on one substrate.
