Back in February I looked at the Rock Xtreme Ti notebook and found it to be the fastest mobile gaming platform available. Now Rock has given me another machine to look at, packing a similar punch, but built into a smaller (but still far from ultra-portable) chassis. The result is that I've finally got a machine with a top end graphics card inside it, but using a chassis other than the 17in Clevo that I've seen many times before.
The Rock Xtreme XT is admittedly smaller than the 17in Xtreme Ti, but you still wouldn't want to carry it around with you all day, or use it on the move too much. The reduction in overall size is due to a reduction in the screen size. Instead of a 17in widescreen display, the Xtreme XT sports a 15.4in widescreen display. Personally I prefer the idea of a 15.4in screen, since the 17in version is quite massive - also, Rock has been smart enough to spec the 15.4in screen with the same resolution as the 17in anyway.
