Just as we knew it would, MSI has formally announced pricing for its newfangled GX70 and GX60 gaming laptops — the world’s first machines to ship with AMD’s Richland A10-5750M (2.5GHz – 3.5GHz) within. The 17.3-inch GX70 offers up a 1,920 x 1,080 native display resolution, AMD’s Radeon HD 8970M on the graphics front, a 750GB hard drive, 8GB of DDR3 memory, a Blu-ray Disc drive, Bluetooth 4.0 and Killer’s E2200 networking technology. You’ll also get a SDXC card slot, HDMI 1.4 socket, 720p webcam, a 9-cell battery — likely good for about 89 seconds of use — a backlit keyboard and a frame that’s 2.17-inches thick and 8.6 pounds. If none of that frightens you, you can plan on parting ways with $1,399.99 to call one your own. The (slightly) more petite GX60 boasts a 15.6-inch panel (still 1080p, though), a 7.7 pound frame and a $1,299.99 price tag. Otherwise, the specifications are essentially identical from its big brother, and both should be shipping any moment now.
