World’s greatest mainboard manufacturer, Taiwanese company ASUS has just launched its new 15” UltraBook during this year’s IFA event in Berlin, Germany. The quality mobile system is not quite as slim as its “Prime” brothers, but it comes with much more performance and a bigger screen.

The company has updated the screen to a high-quality FullHD IPS panel and the keyboard is just like the one used on the famous ZenBook Prime.

Intel’s Ivy Bridge-based Core i7 CPUs will power the new model, but we don’t have the specific information on what version will be integrated.

What we do know is that there will be an optional Nvidia GeForce GTX 650M GPU available and there will be two 2.5” storage bays, which we think is absolutely great.

This allows buyers to order configurations with up to two 256 GB SSDs included or a 128 GB SSD and a 500 GB HDD.

We believe that all notebooks and netbooks should come with two 2.5” storage bays.

Keep an eye on this space, we’ll be back with more information as soon as it is available.
