Toshiba refreshes its PC lineup with new mainstream notebooks, a gaming laptop

If you’re going to unveil a completely refreshed PC lineup, you may as well do it the week Intel launches some new processors (and, you know, the week a big computer show is going on). Toshiba just announced a slew of new models, including an all-in-one, a redesigned gaming notebook and mainstream laptops in various sizes. It’d be silly to overwhelm you with details right here, since everything from the designs to the GPUs have changed, but if you follow us past the break we’ve got a neat summary of everything Toshiba introduced today, complete with pricing, specs and a few hands-on photos too.

Toshiba refreshes the Qosmio X875 gaming laptop with a 1TB hybrid drive

Toshiba refreshes the Qosmio X875 gaming laptop with a 1TB hybrid drive

For the most part, the 2013 Toshiba Qosmio X875 gaming laptop is just like the 2012 version. The company just announced an updated version, but the only main difference is that it will now be offered with a 1TB 7,200RPM hybrid hard drive, which uses 8GB of flash memory to help speed up boot-ups and application load times. All told, Toshiba is promising a 3.6x increase in read / write speeds over last year’s model, and that programs will launch up to 30 percent faster. Other than that, this really is the same notebook. Same “Black Widow” design and even the same specs: up to 32GB of RAM, up to 2TB of storage (including a 1TB hybrid hard drive option), a 3GB NVIDIA GTX 670M GPU and an optional 3D display powered by NVIDIA’s 3D Vision 2 technology. If you’re interested, you can get it with the hybrid drive on February 3rd, starting at $1,480.

Toshiba Qosmio F755 arriving August 16th, for $1,699

The Qosmio F750 glasses-free 3D laptop is now called the F755. August 16th is the date when you’ll be able to pick up Toshiba’s latest 15.6-inch media machine starting at $1,699. The notebook packs in a Core i7 processor, 6GB of RAM, and a 750GB hard disk.

Other features include a Blu-ray drive, and GeForce GT 540M GPU. It won’t be able to convert 2D games to 3D out of the box, but Toshiba is working with Nvidia to deliver that feature by November, if you can wait that long. It starts shipping in about two weeks.
