NVIDIA’s mobile graphics strategy accidentally disfigured today by Eurocom from side to side with report of its X8100 Leopard mobile workstation notebook.

The system currently has the alternative of a GeForce GTX 480M that would most probably replace the 280M as NVIDIA’s fastest notebook graphics. It does not come into view to be a mistake as it is portrayed by, a much superior 2GB of video memory on one chip, and the newer 40 nanometer procedure used on newer GeForce chipsets, the Fermi architecture.

If precisely explained, the 480M may be really power starving as Eurocom orients 100W powers draw. Whether that refers to the entire power utilization of the system or immediately the graphics core is not obvious.

The PC designer affirmed honestly that.
“It expects the new hardware to be available in June and may have provided a clue as to the broader launch. NVIDIA has usually followed a pattern of launching only one or two high-end notebook graphics chipsets at first and following these up with lower-powered chipsets a few months once the design is efficient enough to fit into thin-and-light notebooks.”
