Posted on 06. Apr, 2011 by LaptopMan in Laptops, Laptops
Want the ability to play Blu-ray movies and play some 3D games with a laptop? MSI has announced today two new F-Series laptops that will have features available to be able to fit those needs. The MSI FX420 and MSI FX620DX will be launched soon with the latest Intel Sandy Bridge processors and AMD Radeon HD 6000 series/Nvidia GeForce GT 500 series dedicated graphics in-toe.
Both the FX420 and FX620DX laptops will come with the option for a Blu-ray player and each comes standard with HDMI output so either model will be able to supply that HDTV in your home with Blu-Ray quality video at your command.
In regard to either models built-in displays the 15.6-inch FX620DX will offer you the choice of a Full HD 1080p resolution or HD 720p (1366×768) resolution LED back-lit screen, while the 14-inch FX420 will have only HD 720p LED back-lit screen. Both 720p and 1080p are good but if you want to watch Full HD content at it’s native resolution then the 1080p display option on the FX620DX is best for you.
Other more classic features that most MSI laptops in 2011 feature like Cinema Pro technology for quick hotkey access to preset display options, or ECO Engine technology for enhanced power efficiency; will all be featured on the MSI FX420 and MSI FX620DX.
