It'll be available in Hong Kong by the end of the month. Top-end model only comes with a Radeon HD 6470M 512MB apparently. Kinda hope that's only a typo, but for that price, I'm not entirely optmistic we'd see a 6630M anytime soon.

Starts at $970 in the U.S. and even the lowest model comes with a 6470M GPU. In fact there is no option to get one without from what I can see. Selecting the top end processor unlocks the ability to upgrade the gpu to a 6630M.

its very over priced

I think its pretty chinsy to offer up a "$50" graphics upgrade when you ahve to pay for a $200 i7 processor which most people don't need.

yes exactly why i have to pay extra 200 in processor i dont need if they can fix this i think the price would be good enough

Hmm looks good... might be time to replace my ancient ASUS yay!

Is this going to have auto-switching between the integrated and AMD GPUs or a manual switch? I'm getting conflicting information on the web.
