mobilenvidia Posted April 10, 2006 Report Share Posted April 10, 2006 A big thanks to marcoland for pointing this out to us :) Arima have a new laptop in the wings. How would this grab you guys : Specification CPU AMD Turion ML-30 ~ ML-42 AMD Turion MT-30 ~ MT-40 AMD Sempron 2800+ ~ 3300+ Packaging UPGA 754 Thermal 35W + 72W ( CPU + GPU ( 36W * 2 ) ) FSB 800Mhz Chipset NVidia CK8-04 LCD Panel 17.0? WXGA ( 1440 x 900 ) 17.0?WSXGA+ ( 1680 x 1050 ) 17.0?UXGA ( 1920 x 1200 ) Base Memory TWO DDR SO-DIMM Slot for 256MB/512MB/1GB Support DDR 333/400MHz Max. Memory up to 2GB VGA Support Dual NVidia Geforce Go 7800 ( Sli , G70M/G71M ) Support NVidia G7xM MXM module w/128Mb/256Mb Optical Drive Combo/DVD-Dual HDD Dual SATA HDD Slots Support RAID40GB / 60GB / 80GB / 100GB2.5? 9.5mm Height Express Card x 1 ( Support both 34 & 54 ) Media Card 1 slot, ( Support SD, SD-IO, MMC, MS, MS-Pro ) Fax / Modem One RJ-11 Telephone Jack Lan One RJ-45 port for Ethernet WLAN One Mini Card Slot support 802.11b/g, 802.11a/b/g TV Out S-Video x 1 USB 2.0 x 4 IEEE 1394 4 pin port x 1 Audio Jack Microphone in, Headphone out AC3 out w/Optical wire jack VGA Out One DB 15-pin VGA Port One HDMI VGA Port AC Adapter 150W Dimension 393mm x 294mm x 35mm~37.5mm Weight 3.8 kg ( 8.56lbs), w/9 cells Li-Ion battery Battery Life Target over 2.5 hours w/12 cells Li Ion battery ( 1 VGA card ) Here is my 2c worth: This is looking to be one very impressive machine. Pro's SLI capable in a 17" screen chassis go7800 capable and probaby go7900GS as well. WUXGA screen capable Full sized keyboard with numeric key pad. 2.5 hour battery life capable with 1 VGA card 8.56lb (3.8kg) light for a power house like this (14lb for 19" SLI Sager machine) Dual core 64bit Turion AMD processor, everything in 1 CPU Dual SATA, RAID capable Hard Drives capable. HDMI out for future proofng Cons I doubt this will take a 7800 GTX or 7900 GTX(power requirements too high) Not the best looking machine, looks like a hostipal (too clinical) Power supply output seems a little low, won't allow for GTX GPU's Here is what I would like to see happen for this machine, to make it a dream machine. This needs a SLI 512MB go7600GT's, it would have decent power and some battery life. It will never beat the Sager NP5950 with SLI go7800 GTX or go7900 GTX so beat it with some battery life and the WUXGA screen. I'm available to do any testing if needed :) To look at the specs from Arima look here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest marcoland Posted April 10, 2006 Report Share Posted April 10, 2006 I'm very glad to give my contribution to this site. :) Thankyou for your acknowledgements! :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest marcoland Posted April 10, 2006 Report Share Posted April 10, 2006 The Packaging is just UPGA 754 :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mobilenvidia Posted April 11, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2006 Ahtec also has this model but with go7800GTX for SLI :) More info can be found here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
__-_-_-__ Posted April 11, 2006 Report Share Posted April 11, 2006 Ahtec also has this model but with go7800 for SLI :) More info can be found here the ahtec is much better, it has a 17 display and SLI 2x7800 GTX. A 17" notebook is complicated to carry around, try a 19"... rolft. By the way... does anyones knows if there are any intel notebook with mxm sli? or if there are plans to built one in the future?

Not until Intel can sort out their chipsets to be SLI capable :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
