Toshiba Launches Laptop With Three GPUs

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on from the battery-killers dept.

arcticstoat writes to mention that Toshiba's latest line of high-powered laptops has three GPUs included. Both the Qosmio X305-Q706 and Q708 come with an integrated GeForce 9400M for day-to-day processing tasks but have a pair of GeForce 9800Ms in SLI that kick in when you need the extra horsepower. "The [Qosmio] X305-Q706 costs $1,999 US (£1,257) in the US, although we haven't seen any UK pricing on the laptops yet. The system comes with a 2.2GHz Core 2 Duo P8400 and 4GB of RAM, while the costlier X305-Q708 comes with a quad-core 2.53GHz Core 2 Extreme QX9300 CPU."

    Slightly paraphrased: Won't anyone think of the environment?!

    That's not a serious comment, it's a joke converted to a Slashdot post. It's entirely conceivable - and, in fact, likely - that the parent poster will need to obtain a different, better sense of humor.

    I had to make a few substitutions but I fixed it.
