We still lack information about the configuration details. It is certain that today will carry an ULV Core i7 (probably the i7-620UM) and NVIDIA GeForce 310M in parallel with an Intel GMA chipset. The rest of the configuration, based on a chassis UL80 should embark classics HDMI, VGA, 3xUSB Microphone, Headset, Ethernet and an SD card slot.

Asus is also vague on over clocking the processor. Indeed, the new Core i7 has the abilities over clocker automatically as needed (or reduce their consumption at maximum), it does not know if the Turbo 33 will feature the game. The big change compared to the previous generation remains the automation of power management. When the machine is not requested, the processor will reduce its maximum frequency, and the display will be managed by the integrated Intel chipset. Once the need for felt power (Games, HD video), the processor increases the frequency and the display switches to the dedicated NVIDIA card.

With this technique, Asus announces 12h maximum autonomy (in power saving mode), and the possibility of parallel power play (albeit by making concessions).

Little aside on this model and automatic failover announced. We sincerely hope that efforts have been made to ensure smoother operation and no longer hold to software problems. Indeed today, the series UL80VT, it is impossible to switch from one card to another if some common applications (Live Messenger, Steam …) are launched … There are more practical.

This UL80JT we expect a lot should reveal a bit more in the days and weeks ahead we will keep you informed of his arrival on the market.

Mixture of aluminum on the outside and matte black inside, the lines of NX90 not leave anyone indifferent.
Some love and others detest.

The design of the screen is not unlike that of a TV. The speakers on either side of the deck enjoy a bigger size – four to five times by Asus – than other phones on the market. The sound rendering should be particularly careful, the NX90 also have an amplifier designed exclusively to accommodate the constraints of restitution of a laptop.

Another feature of NX90 its dual touchpad located on both sides of the keyboard, novel systems to date. The question is whether the efficiency is really improved compared to a conventional touchpad. A video is available at Engadget, but it does not really realize the grip available.

But design is not the only benefit of this notebook outside standard. The configuration is also up to the expectations of demanding users with an Intel Core i7 processor, graphics card NVIDIA Geforce GT 335M, Up to 1.28 TB of disk space or a Blu-Ray to enjoy High Definition on the slab 18.4 inch Full HD. The NX90 is also equipped with USB ports 3.

The price has not been disclosed, but it’s a safe bet that it will be like the other products of the B & O.
