3D notebooks are gaining traction, and gamers now have a few more options to choose from. AVADirect have picked up the ASUS G51JX-3D and the Clevo W880CU W860CU 3D, each toting NVIDIA’s 3D Vision technology(that uses shutter glasses) and various CPUs from Intel’s Core i5 and i7 ranges.
Both the G51JX-3D and W860CU 3D have 15.6-inch HD displays and NVIDIA graphics cards – a GeForce GTS 360M 1GB on the ASUS and a GeForce GTX 285M 1GB on the Clevo – while the former gets up to 6GB of DDR3 memory and the latter up to 8GB. The ASUS is outfitted with a Core i7-720QM processor as standard, but there’s more flexibility with the Clevo: that can have any of a range of Core i5 and i7 chips, together with optional SSDs.
Both systems come with a pair of 3D Vision glasses, and the Clevo can be custom painted (for a fee). The ASUS G51JX-3D starts at around $1,600, while the Clevo W860CU 3D starts at around $1,800.
