Cool gaming laptops from CeBIT: Acer Aspire 8930 and Clevo M980NU



Apart from netbooks which are gaining a substantial popularity over regular sized laptops in the recent years. Gaming laptops have also been popular, most likely because of their advantage in being able to move abouts whenever necessary. What we have below are two of the latest gaming laptops revealed by Acer and Clevo at the CeBIT this year.

As for the specs fo the Acer Aspire 8930, its a 18.4-inch that boasts Intel’s new Core 2 Quad Mobile Q9000 CPU, 4GB of DDR3 RAM, a 500GB 7200 SATA hard drive and NVIDIA GeForce 9700M GT graphics with 512MB of dedicated video memory. It will however cost $1800, which is quite alot for an Acer. Check out some pictures of the Acer Aspire 8930 below

Clevo’s M980NU is another rather large gaming PC also sporting a 18.4″ LCD. The LCD features full HD with a 1920 x 1080 pixel format. You will know when this beast is powered on because there are blue LEDs everywhere. Notebook Check took a preproduction model for a ride and checked the massive 18.4″ LCD. The LCD showed a decent brightness of 220 cd/m2 in the middle but they did mention that light fall-off toward the edges were a bit pronounced. Contrast ratio was a very good 595:1. This monsterous machine has dual Nvidia GTX 280M with mobile quad-core CPU support, so you gamers will know what that means - hybrid graphics modes! What’s strange is that nothing has been mentioned on how much memory it will come with, but we suspect nothing short of 4GB of RAM. In addition to this, the M980NU is also equipped with three HDD ports, touch sensors, HDMI, TV turner and fingerprint security. The M980NU to me is probably not just an incredible gaming PC but an entertainment heaven!
