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. With the retail price of £1749 (incl. VAT), the laptop is also equipped with a dual-layer DVD burner and come with pre-installed Windows XP Home Edition operating system.
