Origin launches the EON 17-X for gamers

Origin launches the EON 17-X for gamers:

To many the EON 17-X from the USA based Origin is a desktop replacement, but to the serious, gamer this will be essential kit for mobile gaming with specs that beat most desktop computers along the way.


Origin have beefed this laptop up to the max with the very fast Intel Core i7-3960X six core processor complete with a 15 MB Cache and it can be clocked at a massive 3.3 GHz, but with Turbo Boost it can go up to 3.9 GHz. This makes it the fastest and of course most expensive processor option available for the EON 17-X.

The best thing to do with this machine is start with the base model, it comes with the 17.3 inch full HD 1080p wide LCD display with an 16:9 Aspect Ratio and with a 1920 x 1080 of pixel resolutions. The base unit is powered by the Intel Core i7-3820 with 3.6 GHz to 3.9 GHz with Turbo Quad-Core processer offering 10 MB L3 Cache and the graphics option with be a single 2 GB GDDR5 NVIDIA GeForce GTX 580M graphics card.

This is by no means a small or light laptop with the dimensions for height being 2.22 to 2.39 inches, width 16.50 inches and depth at 11.26 inches. While it weighs in at a hefty 12.1 pounds with the Polymer Smart lithium-ion battery 78.44 WH that will offer just sixty minutes of power, so this is not going too far.


While the base model of the EON 17-X will have a starting price of under $3,200, if the buyer decides to upgrade and configure the laptop to top of the range settings the final price is likely to be over $7,300!
