MSI has presented a computer with a very odd but still natural combination of hardware? GX60 is armed with AMD’s latest A10-4600M with integrated HD 7660G graphics, but also the flagship Radeon HD 7970M.

AMD launched the next generation APU Trinity about a month ago, which turned out to have a quite potent graphics processor inside. Before that the new graphics cards in the HD 7000M series for notebooks arrived. MSI has presented the GX60 at Computex, a gaming computer with AMD Trinity A10-4600M and Radeon HD 7970M, which is the AMD flagship for notebooks. This may seem like an odd combination considering Trinity is way behind Intel in raw CPU performance, which is normally used in gaming computers.

The 15.6″ screen has 1920 x 1080-pixel resolution and the computer looks like the older MSI GT60, even if the audio ports are not the right side instead of the left. Super RAID is used with dual SanDisk SSD U100 64 GB drives for a total of 128 GB capacity as the primary system drive, paired with 500 GB mechanical storage. The computer also has a Killer E2200 from Qualcomm Atheros, which will reduce the latencies in games when playing online.

On the whole it looks like the computer has the same specifications as GT70, sans the size, processor and graphics card. There is no information on the price or launch date, but the choice of porcessors implies it will be one of the cheaper gaming rigs on the market, despite the powerful graphics card.
