And here goes another PC manufacturer upgrades its products and adds the hot Intel Core 2 Duo (Merom) processor onto its configuration. The Rock (cool name, btw) now presents the Merom-edition of its monster gaming laptop, the Xtreme CTX Pro series. There are three models in this line-up, but let’s take a look at the most powerful (and most expensive) one, XCTX-PRO-T76. Measures 397 x 294 x 44mm and weighs 3.9kg, this 17-inch notebook offers an Intel Core 2 Duo T7600 (2.33GHz) processor, a 1GB of DDR2 RAM (2×512MB), a nVidia GeForce Go 7950 GTX graphics card with 512MB of VRAM, and 100GB of 7,200rpm SATA HDD. (incl. VAT), the laptop is also equipped with a dual-layer DVD burner and come with pre-installed Windows XP Home Edition operating system.

Back to the graphics engine, the usage of nVidia’s GeForce Go 7950 GTX makes it possible for the laptop to deliver ultra-smooth, high-definition H.264, WMV, and MPEG-2 movies with minimal CPU utilization low power consumption, thanks to nVidia PureVideo technology. Witth it, Rock’s Xtreme CTX Pro notebook is ready for the future too with H.264 HDTV decoding hardware acceleration built in.
