Samsung Refreshes Series 7 Gamer Laptop with 3D Display, Yellow Paint Job
Samsung's getting ready to reboot its flagship gaming notebook, the Series 7 Gamer, with a funky fresh yellow paint job, 3D display, and new internals built around Intel's Ivy Bridge platform. As reconstructed, the Series 7 Gamer will sport punchier graphics and faster storage that ventures into solid state drive territory, though it will still feature a 1TB hard drive for storage chores.
Specifically, Samsung's Series 7 Gamer boasts an Intel Core i7 3610QM processor clocked at up to 3.3GHz, 8GB of DDR3 memory (upgradeable to 16GB), AMD Radeon HD 7870M graphics, 128GB SSD for the OS, 1TB HDD for secondary storage, 17.3-inch SuperBright Full HD 1080p (1920x1080) LED panel with 3D support, backlit keyboard, improved cooling, and Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit all wrapped in a bright yellow chassis, according to the company's Samsung Tomorrow blog.
The Series 7 Gamer will ship in Asia on August 14th for 2.99 million Won, or about $2,650 when converted to U.S. currency. No word on when Samsung plans to ship the refreshed laptop in the U.S. and other territories, or how much it will cost stateside when (and if) it does.
