Origin Unveils the Super-Powered EON17 Gaming Laptop
Posted in: gaming, laptop, Today's Chili, video games
Origin made news a few weeks ago when they released their combination XBox 360 and gaming PC, The Big O. Now the company is at it again with the Eon17, a high-end gaming laptop with a laundry list of gaming hardware that you’d traditionally find in a full-sized PC.
The Eon17 features a 17-inch 16:9 LED backlist display, an optional six-core Intel Core i7 980X processor, up to 24GB of memory, and up to three hard drives. The Eon17 also has HDMI inputs and outputs so you can show your movies and gaming on a larger screen, and can be configured with two NVidia GeForce 480M graphics cards in SLI mode.
Just for good measure, Origin also crammed a Blu-Ray burner and combo drive into the laptop case, along with a full-sized keyboard and a touchpad that supports multi-touch gestures. However, like many other gaming laptops there’s no doubt the Eon17 will be heavy and not really meant to use on your lap at all. Pricing starts at $2,499 and goes up depending on how many of the listed features you want in the one you order. Orders start shipping in October.
