Archived: July 5th 2006 We are proud to say that we now carry a Type II GeForce 6600 with 256MB DDR! We are still looking for bèta testers, so if you have a laptop with a 6200 or x600SE GPU in a Type II slot, drop us a line! Dedicated bèta testers can count on heavily reduced prices if they choose to buy the card they tested!

CEBIT Gazette: Shuttle will use MXM in XPC X100! Shuttle is working on a new, even smaller Shuttle. What makes it interesting is that it will use an MXM card for it's GPU needs! With the x1400, the MXM family will get a member of the latest generation and the continuation into the future seems more and more set. The XPX will feature a a 1.83GHz Core Duo processor, 512MB of RAM, ATI Mobility Radeon X1400 graphics, 250GB SATA II HDD, digital audio, 802.11a/b/g WiFi, a memory card reader, DVI, and TV out. Rumor has it that a x1600 will also be available. And it's a looker, too! Update: A representative of Shuttle confirmed that the MXM module is Type II. One downside: it will only be available in the complete system, it will not be sold as separate cards... Bummer!

CEBIT Gazette: MSIMSI has decided to jump in the MXM pool. They launched the beautiful L745, which features a MXM Type II card. MSI plans a range of MXM cards, both ATI and MXM, to complement this notebook, all MSI made. Don't be fooled by the identical looks of the L7xx series of notebook, they are all based on different motherboards and do not feature MXM. As a sign of MSI's belief in MXM, the Geminium technology demonstrator was on display. What tech actual use of a desktop cards with two MXM's in SLI is, we don't know but here's a picture anyway.

CEBIT Gazette: ECSWe already knew the 910 features MXM technology, here's a picture. Based on either a 6600 or a 6800 card, this notebook packs quite a punch...
And punch is also what you'll get from the new G610. Based on the newest NVIDIA and ATI GPU's there's another keyword: choice!
Or at least at purchase time. While asking if the cards will be available in any way, the ECS representative looked at me as if I said dirty things about his mother. |
