CITY OF INDUSTRY, Calif. – March 30, 2011 – MSI Computer Corp., a leading
manufacturer of computer hardware products and solutions, today announced that it
has resumed shipments of the GT680R notebook, its 15.6” full HD desktop replacement gaming
unit powered by the refreshed second generation Intel® Core™ i7 2630QM processor.
MSI’s GE620 notebook, a slightly lighter sibling to the GT model designed for the
casual gamer, will also be shipping soon with the 2nd generation Intel Core i7 2630QM
processor.
MSI is also introducing its “MSI Quality Assurance Program” for all MSI notebooks equipped
with the second generation Intel Core processor chipset purchased in the U.S. In
response to the recent recall of the Intel 6 Series chipset, the “MSI Quality Assurance Program” addresses any outstanding customer
concerns around product quality with an additional one-year extended warranty for
all MSI Sandy Bridge notebooks.
Separately, the Better Business Bureau has honored MSI with an A+ rating,
the organization’s highest grade for reliability. This exemplary grade represents
the BBB's degree of confidence that MSI is operating in a trustworthy manner.
“MSI is dedicated to provide outstanding customer service,” said Andy Tung, vice
president of sales for MSI US. “We want our customers to know that we are doing
all we can to ensure their highest satisfaction as we have resolved – and continue
to move beyond – the Intel 6 Series chipset issue.”
All MSI notebooks sold in 2011 in the U.S. that use the updated Intel 6 Series chipset
will be eligible for the one-year extended warranty, including the GT680R and GE620,
as well as other new models, including the FX420, FX720/FR720 and CR640/CX640. Customers
must register their MSI laptop within 30 days of purchase to qualify for the one-year
extended warranty. Online registration can be completed at: http://www.msimobile.com/productreg/productlogin.aspx.
