The CX623, the 15.6" laptop with discrete graphics card recently added to MSI's Classic series arsenal, just hit the market.

Equipped with the latest Intel Core processor and the nVidia GeForce 310M discrete graphics card (DDR3 1GB VRAM), the CX623 offers the best multimedia processing capabilities out there. What's more, the CX623 comes with MSI's own color film print coating with cross-hatch design and MSI's chiclet keyboard, accentuating its minimalist, stylish exterior.

MSI Marketing Director Sam Chern explains that the CX623 employs the latest Intel Core processor with nVdia discrete graphics card and MSI's exclusive GPU Boost technology. The nVdia GeForce 310M discrete graphics card enables the CX623 to automatically detect the load status of applications currently being used and to perform intelligent dynamic switching between the discrete graphics card and integrated display chip. It works hand in hand with MSI's ECO engine power saving technology, which allows you to select from among five power management levels, so you use just the right amount of power for the task at hand, allowing the CX623 to strike the ideal balance between quality multimedia performance, processing performance, and maximum battery life.

New generation power saving technology
Intelligent GPU Boost technology: The CX623 offers MSI's own intelligent GPU Boost technology which finds a balance between performance and battery life. Aided by the nVidia GeForce 310M discrete graphics card, the GPU Boost technology detects the graphics performance load status of the application currently being used and automatically switches between the discrete graphics card and integrated display chip, so when the system is performing high resolution tasks, like 3D games and graphics processing, the GPU Boost automatically selects the discrete graphics card mode to provide optimal image processing performance. When you're doing less power-hungry tasks, like word processing or cruising the Internet, the system switches back to the integrated chip mode to optimize battery life.

ECO engine power saving technology: The CX623 comes with MSI's exclusive ECO engine power saving technology which allows you to select from among five power management levels—Game, Film, Presentation, Word Processing, and Turbo Battery, automatically adjusting image brightness, on/off switch, and sleep mode settings, maximizing battery flexibility to give you the most battery time per charge.
