Didn't the chap say 3400 discrete on the video? not 2400?

cah
…3400 discrete…
Yep - he says it is 3400 based…

…but we nudged the tpyo manager and had confirmation back that it supports DX10 - not DX10.1 - so 2400 is accurate

In all, it was one of the more amazing demonstrations I've seen over the past 30 years in this industry - got to the point where you weren't sure if the second one would ever stop

Be interesting to see what Intel launch next in this space

I really enjoyed the feature as well. Really unsure however about the claim it will play back a full length blue ray film from a fully charged battery… Be very interested to see that tested later on at some point!
