PRESS RELEASE

CITY of INDUSTRY, CA (October 7, 2014) - CyberPower Inc. www.cyberpowerpc.com, a global manufacturer of custom gaming PCs, gaming laptops, and performance workstations, today announced the Fangbook Edge, a slim notebook gaming system that packs revolutionary processor technology from Intel and NVIDIA into a slender enclosure that is less than one inch thick.

Equipped with a powerful Intel Core i7-4870HQ processor with Intel Iris Pro Graphics 5200, and the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970M graphics card, the Fangbook Edge packs a lot bit of muscle inside a 0.78-inches thick enclosure that weighs 4.36 pounds. 

The Fangbook Edge is as lean as high-end gaming notebooks get, but does not compromise energy efficiency over high performance. The 4th Generation Intel Core i7-4870HQ processor sips power when idle or under general workloads, cruising at 2.5GHz, and then kicking up to 3.7 GHz when you need it. 

The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970M outperforms previous generations by a wide margin and features all-new technologies that enhance the overall gaming experience. Combining the groundbreaking efficiency of NVIDIA's Maxwell GPU architecture with NVIDIA Optimus Technology, the GTX 970M provides high-end desktop level performance in games, while the integrated Intel Iris Pro Graphics 5200 takes over when high-end performance is not required. Support for the next-generation DirectX 12 graphical API means the Fangbook Edge is ready to take on the super-detailed games of the future.

The Fangbook Edge will be offered in two models the Edge 1080P and the EDGE 4K with 3840x2160 resolution. The 15.6" Full HD (1080p) LCD panel on the Fangbook Edge is clear and crisp with a wide viewing angle that makes use of embedded DisplayPort technology. Compared to previous interfaces, eDP provides a more efficient and technologically advanced link between the graphics card and notebook display, which leads to greatly reduced power consumption. 

DisplayPort also delivers the promise of 4k to your living room. For those gamers who demand even higher resolution than HD, the Fangbook Edge 4K can be configured with a 15.6" UHD panel with a staggering 3840x2160 resolution.

The Fangbook Edge has all the input and output flexibility needed from a high-performance gaming PC. With 3 high-speed USB 3.0 ports, an SD card reader, HDMI out, mini DisplayPort/Thunderbolt 2 port, audio jacks, an RJ-45 jack, MiraCast wireless display technology, and the best wireless connectivity available via Intel 7260 Wilkins Peak 2, the Fangbook Edge is capable of being a desktop replacement.
