    Well lets see, I can tell you that we will be carrying it for sure. It'll be a 1366x768 11.6" Laptop, should be able to hold the quad cores (don't know for sure yet), have a GT650M in it (Non user upgradable). 2 SODIMM Slots, and have at least one mPCIE slot for WLAN/BT. Don't have a read on battery life yet. There are also a few other features we can't talk about yet =)

    Man, if I can get some info on battery life for this I'll definitely have to jump on it. My fiance is looking to replace the x220t she's had tons of problems with. I may just replace my x220 as well if the 650m ends up being as powerful as it's rumored to be. 4-6 hours of battery life would be a minimum though since I can get 8-10 now.

    @blacky: well what do u expect in a 11.6" screen? ^^ afaik theres only sony out there offering a 13" laptop with FHD resolution. so 1366x768 is actually quite alright in this case :)

    cheers

    Rumor on the block says 6 hours on battery if you are in UMA mode (No nV). For the screen, the only thing close is a 13.3" 1920x1080 that is eDP. These are still LVDS, once we really move into eDP screens (Probably next year) then you will see pixel density shoot up. But there are some other things we may be doing with this model ;)

    I think 1366x768 is fine for 11". It's the 15.6" laptops with that resolution that is an atrocity.

    Will this be an undervolted cpu or a full cpu like the Lenovo x220?
    also the clevo site is saying 4gb ram, I doubt it will have 1 dimm slot so hopefully our resellers could bump this to 8. at least :D

    since he said that it should support a quad, I would guess 45w tdp

    Looks like it will be duals only. Top TDP on this model is 35W. So yea =) Don't worry about the post earlier.

    As in now it will blow away the current m11x even with the same hardware upgrade later on, the m11x is just too big IMO :) (although Alienware is so mainstream people will still buy it thanks to shiny colors)

    Certainly only 1366x768 and it is certain on Dual core only. These are fact on this model. Sorry.

    These rumors are really starting to get outta hand 11.6" 1080p quad core IB with 10000 vantage mark score... It's not going to happen this year. I wish it would and I would happily pay a pretty penny for it. But let’s be realistic here.

    My prediction is that it will come out with the standard 11.6" 768p screen, the slower nvidia 630m and option for i5 3427u or i7 3667u (17 watt dual cores) this would be more in line with how current tech is advancing. (plus seeing as intel confirmed the delay of their dual core mobile IB, we won't see these in our homes until early fall)

    The 10000 score comes from the specs that were leaked a while back, something along the lines of... 650m 10000, 660m 14000, 670m 20000, 675m 25000. I don't remember the exact numbers, I do know the first two are what were said in the leak. And we have a slide that says 60% improvement over 555m. Considering the 635m = 555m, I would hope the 650m is 60% faster.

    The brand is Terransforce, based on Clevo Notebooks. GPU is integrated on motherboard, no MXM slot.

    They are comparing size using an iPhone 4.

    AND to quote "不過650效能也介於550M跟555M之間而已 其實不算很突出 畢竟是配DDR3的卡 真正要等 要等28NM的GPU", GT 650M performance is only somewhere between GT 550M and GT 555M, not very impressive as it comes with DDR3 VRAM only. You really have to wait for 28nm GPU.

    One poster also says that 10000 score is achieved with Physx on.

    GPU clock is 810MHz, the same as shader clock.

    It is an issue that GPU-Z gets the core clock using fermi rule(shader clock/2).

    It´s really worth to have one, though a bit heavy and with a glare screen, but overall impression is very good.....

    All we can say at the moment is that this model WILL be available for sale soon.

    Sager and the resellers will have it. However, NDA is still in force. :)
