Gateway has just released a 17 inch laptop with the new core i3 processor inside. The laptop comes with everything standard today in a mid range laptop including a light weight of 7.4 pounds, 6 cell battery, 16×9 aspect ratio, 500GB 5400RPM harddrive, integrated graphics, but the real new feature to talk about is the 2.13Ghz core i3 processor. All of this comes in at just the low price of $580 at Besbuy.

The new core i3 processor is part of Intel’s new top of the line 32 nanometer processor lineup with the likes of the Intel corei5 and i7. Even though the core i3 has a clock speed of only 2.13ghz, the core i3?s new architecture makes it able to keep up with similar processors with much higher clock speeds like the Intel core 2 DUO T9500 with a clock speed of 2.66GHz.

This laptop is more than enough to handle any CPU intensive programs like adobe CS5, running a virus scan, or ripping a movie without slowing down your machine to a halt. To read more about the new core i3 processor visit notebook checks article here.
