With high-end desktop performance and laptop portability at the heart of the Metabox P150EM's design, the revolutionary IVY Bridge platform couldn't be a more perfect fit. Rather than just push the boundaries, this time around Intel have exploded out of the gates with a major technological breakthrough in the advancement of micro-processors. Billed as the 3-D Tri-Gate Transistor, the new Ivy Bridge replaces the traditional 2-D Planar transistor, delivering significantly greater performance through a smaller 22 nanometer (nm) structure. The three dimensional design supercharges the Ivy bridge's core processing speed, making it up to 37% faster than previous generation equivalents. Meanwhile, the smaller 22 nanometer structure improves efficiency and reduces the processors power consumption by up to 50%, giving you more mileage from your laptop battery. In addition to this, the new IVY Bridge range features Intel's most advanced onboard graphics chip to date, the HD4000, bringing with it full support for DirectX 11 and double the video performance of the former HD3000. It's not hard to see why most experts are labelling the Ivy Bridge as one of the most important developments of the last 60 years and we are thrilled to showcase its full potential on the ingenious Metabox P150EM.

The System
The Metabox P150EM might be small in size but its phenomenal graphics ability is a massive leap forward in mobile computing. Featuring the worlds fastest laptop video cards, the Metabox P150EM delivers unparalleled graphics power whilst retaining a level of mobility that enables you to have it by your side wherever you go. It is the ultimate high-end graphics system for those seeking mobility.

The Video Cards
NVIDIA Geforce Go GTX 680M & 675MX 4GB DDR5 & 670MX 3GB DDR5
With higher texture fill rates and faster graphics clock speeds the new generation NVIDIA Ge Force Go GTX 680M, 675MX & 670MX deliver up to 40% more horsepower over their previous generation equivalents. NVIDIA's industry leading technology comes standard on both cards, including their trademark PhysX technology which brings games to life with dynamic in-game interaction and ultra life-like animation.

AMD Radeon HD 7970M GPU with 2GB GDDR5
The 7970 is AMD's most technologically advanced graphics card to date.
With a mammoth 2.8 billion transistors and AMD's new GCN architecture
the phenomenal 7970 is
engineered to deliver the ultimate
graphics performance for gamers and
professionals alike. Furthermore, powered by
a set of innovative hardware and software technologies, AMD's App Acceleration gives you enhanced speed and
performance beyond traditional graphics and video processing, enabling you to multitask much more efficiently.

The days of having to sacrifice battery life in order to obtain high-end graphics performance are a thing of the past. NVIDIA's Optimus Technology and AMD's Enduro Technology seamlessly calculates how best to optimise your notebooks battery by intelligently fast-switching between Intels new integrated HD 4000 graphics card and the P150EM's high-end graphics card. The technology works by actively calculating your precise graphical requirements and directing those data streams to the most suitable card for processing. Therefore during less graphically intense applications the dedicated video card is powered off and the integrated HD4000 is activated to handle both rendering and display calls to conserve power and provide the highest possible battery life. As a result, you can focus on doing the fun stuff, like watching a movie or playing a game, with the assurance that you will be getting the greatest performance and longest battery life from your P150EM.

Intel's new Smart Response Technology integrates the use of an mSATA SSD drive to cache data from a regular 7200RPM Hard Disc Drive. By learning the way you use your computer, Intel's SRT technology will adapt to your habits over time and store the most frequently used files in the SSD drive for quicker access. This in turn means you will benefit from the fast performance of an mSATA SSD whilst tapping into the storage capabilities of a regular hard disk. Best of all, an SRT setup will give you the speed and size at a fraction of the cost of an equivalent SSD drive.

The Metabox P150EM offers a full array of vibrant backlit keyboard colours to tailor a look to your exact tastes. There are 3 separate colour zones so that you can customise specific regions of the keyboard for easier visualisation. You will never be bored with your keyboard ever again.

The Metabox P150EM offers a variety of storage options with the ability to store up to two individual hard drives and one Mini PCIe mSATA SSD drive. Choose between speed, storage, or a combination of the two with Intel's Smart Response Technology. The best part about it is that it can be tailored to your exact needs.

The Metabox P150EM features four memory sockets running in dual channel. Upgrade to a maximum of 32GB's DDR3 1600MHZ memory or a blistering 16GB DDR3 1866MHZ memory and unlock blazing fast data transfer speeds that will ensure the CPU is never left waiting for its next command.

The Metabox P150EM features a fingerprint scanner for efficient and secure access to your operating system. The scanners accurate one-swipe detection is all it takes to get you into windows quickly, eliminating the need for memorising lengthy and mundane passwords.
