Toshiba launched its Qosimo X305-Q706 and X305-Q708 line of laptop PC's. The systems come configured with with two GeForce 9800M GTS cards in SLI configuration, plus an integrated GeForce 9400M for when you want some peace and quiet, or need battery life over performance for day-today work.
Toshiba has tnow taken it's place in the high breed Gaming laptop market, alongside Dell and HP. Toshiba has trumped the competition though, by releasing a more versatile system with three GPUs. This system not only allows gamers the power they need, but for those with more modest needs of prolonging life during an endless work day, Toshiba allows power conservation to prevail over performance, by switching the the third GPU . Competing models rely on lowered GPU setting to relieve the strain on a battery, but the three GPU configuration promises to outperform the competitors in this area. In addition, three GPUs could help to speed up performance running GPGPU apps. Toshiba’s vice president of product development for Toshiba’s US digital products division, Carl Pinto, was quoted on CustomPC explaining that Toshiba ‘wanted to deliver an extreme-performance gaming machine that gives gamers a complete, non-compromising system in a laptop form factor.’ He added that ‘The combination of the NVIDIA GPUs and chipset allowed us to achieve a high level of performance, quality and flexibility that our customers are asking for, at a competitive starting price.’
Priced at $1,999 in the US, the Qosimo X305-Q706 are not for the casual user with modest needs. The system has a 2.2GHz Core 2 Duo P8400 and 4GB of RAM, while the X305-Q708 is configured with a quad-core 2.53GHz Core 2 Extreme QX9300 CPU. For the gamer on the run, looking for the best of both world between daily work and the need for a gaming fix, Toshiba holds the answer.
