Pardon my ignorance, especially considering I don't care for laptops or keep up on their evolving form factor or hardware capacities; but what the *** is an ultrabook?

It is likely a certain company's "brand" of certain form factor laptop

Looks like Intel's nonsense...
Looks like an aborted fetus between a laptop and a tablet ~_~

Wow... way to make an *** of myself on the new page.

I probably wont update anymore after this. Unless WoW updates again but they just did that with Cata so I doubt they will. More interested in playing older games anyway.

Just as a nostalgia throw-back now, since I kinda miss it..

I had a gtx 460. And holy god. You could overclock and run that thing through hell and not have a problem.

Probably still the most impressive card I've seen price vs. performance ..

I remember all my old GPU's over the years. My first one was a 64mb GeForce MX440 in a prebuilt pc I got for school back in my early/mid teens that I eventually upgraded to a Geforce 6800 (AGP cards LOL!),then I hand built my first gaming pc with dual GeForce 7900 GTX's (512mb models,like a baller!) and then moved onto another hand built pc (current one) with dual GTX 690's.

But yeah bart the GTX series 1xx to 3xx were lackluster as ***,till the 4xx series came around,the game completely changed

I never had the luxury of updating my gpu too much [really bad] until I snagged a 460.

Then I got into overclocking, and bumped it up by 30% overall in total clock speeds. AND IT STILL didn't get insanely hot. Not even rocking some ultra awesome cooling unit. Couple stock fans and 2 randomly placed ones I bought.

Was the ASUS version, still feels like the best buy for the money I ever made.

Nuff said lol

Power efficiency (not just wattage,but performance per W) really took off at the 400 series onwards. And its still going strong. One of nvidia's strong points too,not including their sheer *** brute power at the top end

Bottlenecking from PSU,I'd say maybe a 680

Bottlenecking from CPU,probably a 690 or titan,if even at all.

22 inch LED monitor they've produced for me has held up so far. It ain't a tv but it's been pretty grand to me. :x
I just got a 19 inch LED monitor from them a few months back, I love it.

Who needs ASUS tv's when you're rocking 3 of these bad boys

Some things though,cant be an actual tv. Not just sizewise,but specifically natural (loldynamic) contrast and black levels on plasma tv's get me harder than an old school joystick

Yes it has the expansion, apparently if the enhanced versions of 1 and 2 do well enough they might be making BG3.

I hope so. I played the ones on PS2 (not sure if its the same as PC) and I loved it. I also loved the Champions of Norrath series.

It's completely different from the PS2 ones... While I liked the PS2 ones I think they should have ditched Baldurs gate from the title and just gone with Dark Alliance since the world is the only thing they have in common really. If you are looking for a game that can honestly hold up the title of "old school hard core" baldurs gate is what you want though. I highly recommend going into settings and changing from "Normal" difficulty to "D&D Hardcore" just to make everything proper.

Save often to because perma death can happen in any battle... and even just a regular death is kinda a *** to deal with.

Panasonic is the only way to roll for my tv's <3

ASUS are the only monitor I'll buy. I just wish they had a 30" 2560x1600 with decent spec
