Maingear,the gaming pc maker has announced its new gaming laptop eX-L 17 and is one of the most powerful notebooks on the market with a choice of Core i7 processors and high-end GPUs from Nvidia and ATI.Maingear is pushing its new eX-L 17 custom gaming notebook as “the most powerful components crammed into any 17-inch notebook,” and while the folks at AVADirect (who make similar claims from time to time) might care to quibble over stats, we’re quite sure gamers would be happy with either.The eX-L 17 starts with either an Intel Core i5 or Core i7 processor, pads it with DDR3 memory, and a choice of three video cards: ATI’s Mobility Radeon HD 5890, Nvidia’s GeForce 285m, or Nvidia’s more business-oriented Quadro 2800m for engineers and artists who happen to be closet gamers. Buyers also get a choice of solid-state drives, a 2.0-megapixel webcam, and a full 1080p LED-backlit display
