  • The Intel Core 2 Duo Extreme Mobile X9000 processor is by far the best all around gaming/enthusiast processor I have ever seen. It runs fast right out of the box, but when overclocked the monster inside comes out and crushes everything in its path w...

  • Intel Extreme processor. Best mobile nVidia graphics to date. 4GB RAM. Excellent LED accents with customizable themes and colors. SLI configuration. Dedicated Ageia PhysX card.
