Asus X77 laptop update to feature Intel Core i5 CPU, Radeon HD 5730 graphics


Gaming on a laptop is not something I enjoy doing personally, but I do know that there are a lot of people out there who do enjoy doing this. So I can understand why anyone would be excited over hearing that the Asus X77 laptop, a 17.3-inch screened monster that is currently available for anyone with a heart for gaming and a very deep pocket, will get an upgrade this coming January 2010 to include an Intel Core i5 430 processor and ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5730 graphics.

The particular GPU mentioned above has not yet been revealed by AMD and will likely be a less powerful version of the Radeon HD 5750 and 5770 GPUs. Other specs include two 500GB hard drives, 4GB of memory, eSATA, HDMI-out and a native resolution of 1600x900. Pricing info is not yet known at the moment, though it will probably be around 1000 Euros or about 66,500 Pesos.
