Eurocom Panther is a notebook with a desktop soul

The Eurocom Panther 2.0 mobile gaming station isn’t exactly mobile, especially when you consider that this 17″ monster is no featherweight contender at 5.3kgs. Basically, you won’t appreciate lugging this around wherever you go, as we’re pretty sure you ought to have a game plan in mind, moving this as little as possible whenever you arrive at your destination and having it set up for a gaming experience outside of your home. A couple of NVIDIA Fermi GPUs will provide graphical crunching power, boasting base processors that are SLI’s GTX 480M with an Intel Core i7-980X processor to keep things chugging along nice and smooth. Needless to say, the Core i7 which was mentioned is the desktop variant, so it isn’t a typo you’ve spotted. You can be sure that this will heat up much faster than you would expect it to, making it more suitable to be placed on a table when in use rather than on your lap, if you treasure your family jewels at all. No pricing details were attached, but we do have its specifications located right in the extended post.
