    Hi all,

    I saw on the MSI website that the GT60/70 is going to be available with 675m and 680m. Any Idea as to if the laptop can be available with our beloved 7970m?

    From what I have read, it seems that MSI will only have the high-end nVidia parts.

    evlmangesh,

    I have tested the Dell 7970M in the MSI GT70 and so far no great results (fan stuck at 100%, can't install Clevo or Dell drivers for switchable graphics)

    We need AMD to release some proper drivers for Enduro first...

    Actually the laptop was introducet at E3 , but I dont think its a good choice cause it will come with a wery week amd processor which is uncoparrebly slover than a three generation old i3 processor

    This is about the GT60, not the GX60.
