With CeBIT looking on the horizon, IT companies from around the world are creating new PCs and hardware, in addition to updating existing systems, and Eurocom issued a press release to announce a maneuver of the latter type.

Mobile computers, otherwise known as laptops, come in many sizes and various designs, each intended for various things (office use, gaming, multimedia etc.).

Eurocom's Panther 2.0 is one of those that can do all the above, and more, being larger than most and possible to configure with top-tier mobile hardware.

To be more specific, the product has a screen diagonal of 17.3 inches and massive processing, memory and graphics potential.

For those that want to know just what kind of beast this machine can become, the maximum RAM capacity is of 24 GB, while graphics options include even two NVIDIA GeForce GTX 485M video cards in SLI.

The purpose of the newest announcement regarding the Panther 2.0 is to notify prospective buyers that a new CPU has been added as an option.

Said chip is a strong one, the Intel Core i7-990X Extreme Edition, which has a base clock speed of 3.46 GHz and can go to 3.73 GHz with Turbo Boost.

Considering that the 32nm chip has six of those cores, one can easily guess at the massive processing capabilities that the laptop can now be landed with.

"The i7-990X gives our clients a super powerful, unlocked processor that is built for unmatched performance" said Mark Bialic, president of Eurocom.

"Customers can now match the Intel i7-990X extreme processor with AMD Radeon HD6970M or NVIDIA GTX 485M video cards in single or dual configuration for a super computer experience inside a notebook form factor."

End-users willing to pay for prowess can find the product and customize it here. The base price is set at roughly $3,000, but choosing the base specs will lead to $2,477 or so.
