MSI has released its latest entertainment-oriented notebook, the FX600 which has arrived in North America. This 15.6-inch device will target those who juggle between entertainment and productivity, where it will run off an Intel Core i5 processor, aided by MSI’s Turbo Drive Engine (TDE) technology which is capable of delivering a powerful multimedia experience that was developed in partnership with sound system expert THX. Apart from that, the inclusion of NVIDIA’s GeForce GT 325M discrete graphics card (with 1GB of display memory) enables the FX600 to switch between integrated and discrete GeForce GPU automatically, maximizing the use of your notebook’s battery life, depending on what you’re going to use it for. It is interesting to note that MSI has packed in Cinema Pro technology which offers optimal graphics, where a touch of the Cinema Pro hotkey will kick in the film mode for higher resolution instantly, where richer colors aim to maximize the cinematic experience. You can also go High Definition (HD) with its integrated HD webcam, offering 720p HD video quality – just make sure your connection is fast enough to deliver a smooth performance when talking to someone halfway across the world. Expect the FX600 to retail for $899.99 a pop. The full system specifications are available in the extended post.[Press Release]
