Officially anounced at Computex Taiwan:

ASUS W90: Guinness World Records' Fastest Notebook:

"ASUS announced the W90 has been recognized by the Guinness World Records as the fastest notebook. The system scored 20324 3DMarks in 3DMark05.
ASUS is proud to announce that the ASUS W90 has been recognized by the Guinness World Records as the fastest notebook in the world. Powered by an Intel® Core™ 2 Extreme QX9300 processor and equipped with an ATI® Mobility Radeon® HD4870X2 graphics solution with 1GB of GDDR3 VRAM, the ASUS W90 achieved an unprecedented 3DMark06 score of 20324 at a recent overclocking gathering in Norway. This announcement comes shortly after the ASUS W90 clinched CNET's coveted Editors' Choice award. In the review, CNET's Joshua Goldman, the reviewer, said the multimedia powerhouse delivered "mobile gaming performance [that] is tough to beat", pointing out that the W90 had "outpaced all other notebooks in the processor-intensive performance tests" he conducted when running in overclocked mode.

The ASUS W90 sports an exterior design reminiscent of high performance sports cars. Head-turning looks aside, it provides users with the absolute best in multimedia entertainment and gaming. The setting of a new Guinness World Record solidifies its reputation as the epitome of extreme performance and irresistible style."

***BREAKING NEWS***


8 April 2009, W90VP-A1 Review

The Ultimate W90VP-A1 Review


8 May 2009, From the News Wire Desk of Ken Lee, GenTech Computers.

It's OFFICIAL folks! The W90Vp is NOT limited to a mere 6GB of DDR2 memory!

Today, Ken Lee tested my Patriot 4GB memory modules, and is happy to report, a stable W90Vp with 8GB of DDR2 ram.

BUT, it gets better! Ken then placed one of the original Hynix 2GB modules in the third remaining memory slot, and BINGO..... a stable 10GB DDR2 W90Vp!

Ken further believes this notebook should easily handle 3 of these Patriot 4GB modules, so it appears the W90Vp is going be a 12GB DDR2 powerhouse!

Test Memory (found fully compatible & stable):

Patriot Signature 4GB 200-Pin DDR2 SODIMM DDR2-800 (PC2-6400) Laptop Memory, Part#: PSD24G8002S

***UPDATE***

13 May 2009, Fellow NBR member and W90Vp-X1 owner, mkinasz, installed and tested 3 sticks of this Patriot memory..... and reports the following:

"W90Vp is very happy with the 12gb, posted fine and Vista recognizes it all."

(RE: page# 652, post# 6513 - Screenshots on page# 653, post# 6525)

Awaiting further testing and reporting from Ken Lee at GenTech, confirming 12GB compatibility and stability.

Nah, as much as respect this machine, I'm actually gonna stick with my current system for a while. What I'm waiting for is a 17 inch system with a Lucid Hydra chip and OC support for the CPU. I'm a big guy, but an 18.4 inch notebook would just be too big for me.

Anyways, this is all about you now. You said you are an owner, so let's see some CPUz, GPUz, HWmonitor screenshots and some test runs.

Go.

[Tyo]

now lets just see what options and prices canadians will have and we will know if I'll b buying locally or taking a trip to US
my gfs brother will b so happy, when I get this I'm giving him my gateway as a present but he doesn't know it yet

[Madmech]

Asus said Canada release will be about a week later then US

Might be driving to the States lol.

[ichime]

Btw, I just checked out Newegg.com, which has it on sale already and the price for the X1, for what it's worth, is phenomenal. $2200 basically for a T9600 + these cards...it's even a better bargain than the M17/Whitebook/W840 given the specs.

I never would have thought a high end Asus would have such a price per performance ratio.

[fallingcat]

is it more worth it to wait for the quad setup over the T9600 ???

[Templesa]

Ordered paid and waiting. Come on Newegg!
