For too long, extreme gaming rigs from Dell, Alienware, Falconware, Voodoo, etc. have been denied to Asia consumers. People have to contend with shooting and looting on what are essentially entertainment desktop replacements like Sony VAIO VGN-AR48GP and Toshiba Qosmio G40.
Though the ASUS G2S is one of the few gaming-focused rigs, nevertheless dual graphics cards in portables were unheard of.
Darius Chang, CNET Asia says that " All these changed when Dell decided to bring in the XPS M1730. Possibly the first in Asia to offer two Nvidia GeForce 8700M GT video cards in the base configuration, this XPS ups the ante by also making it one of the few to include an option for PhysX graphics support.
If the graphics processing unit (GPU) is the cream giving the game its pretty looks, then the PhysX engine is the cake which changes the way we interact with the virtual world. Though it's by no means a budget system like the Inspiron series, we were surprised that this XPS came at a competitive price point. "
