Mobile powerhouse maker Eurocom has today introduced the Fox series B5100M and B7110, a couple of gaming notebooks that make use of the Nvidia Optimus technology which enables almost instant switching between integrated graphics and the discrete GPU, depending on needs….
Last we heard from Eurocom, it was touting its massive, workstation-class X8100 Leopard “laptop,” and its now back with a pair of models that are considerably more consumer-friendly — and gamer-friendly, specifically. Those include the 15.6-inch B5100M FOX and 17.3-inch B7110 FOX, which each pack NVIDIA’s Optimus graphics-switching technology (complete with a GeForce GT330M GPU), and a range of other fully customizable options that cover the mid to high-end your choice of Core i3, i5 or i7 processors, up to 16GB of DDR3 RAM, and support for two hard drives for up to 1.6TB of storage, to name just a few options.
The new 15.6-inch (B5100M) and 17.3-inch (B7110) laptops feature 16:9 LED-backlit displays (Full HD on the latter), a Core i3, i5 or i7 processor, up to 16GB of RAM, a maximum of 1.6TB of storage space (via two HDDs), a DVD or Blu-ray drive, a GeForce GT 330M 1GB card, a 9-in-1 card reader, a 1.3 megapixel webcam, a HDMI output and a 6-cell battery.
Of course, prices will vary wildly depending on the config, but you can grab the base 15.6-inch model for $999, or the 17.3-incher for $1,199.
