The 15" XMG P504 and 17" XMG P704 can be equipped with the brand new NVIDIA GeForce GTX 870M or GTX 880M cards. Schenker have improved the performance of the sound system and have refined the cooling system in order to create a smoother experience between normal office usage and high-end performance mode.

The XMG P304 offers an optional QHD+ display, this new screen supports a very high resolution of 3200x1800 pixels with crystal clear display. When running more demanding games you can downsize the resolution to 1600x900 without any interpolation, this greatly improves both the 3D performance and efficiency, thus enabling Battlefield 4 to run smoothly at 50-60fps on ultra-settings and maximum anti-aliasing.

The XMG P304 supports high-end CPU's, including the Intel Core i7-4910MQ, it offers two mSATA slots with RAID 0/1 support and an additional 2.5" slot for HDD's. It's currently available with up to 1.5TB of storage. The chassis is robust, service-friendly and fingerprint-resistant and it impresses with a very modern stealth design without being too obtrusive.

Memory upgrades and fan cleaning are both hassle free processes and can be achieved without breaking any warranty seals. Like the XMG P504, the cooling system on P704 has been optimised to ensure the laptop can be run for extensive periods under maximum load without any performance drops.
