    Aren't they're going to be 980m and 970m versions of the GT72S as well?

    I'm thinking the "S" nomenclature will be just for the GTX series

    I remember seeing 970m and 980m GT72S models on MSI's site. But there's been screwy stuff gong on the last few days with spec changes and stuff.

    It's always good to wait for a launch until getting g model numbers and exact specs stuck in your head.

    MSI always launches several SKUs, so I doubt we will only see a single GTX980 variant. Considering there was even a titan with dual 965m somewhere, I will not be surprised to see 970m/980m/980 variants for their high end laptops.

    So now you know the S is for the chipset supporting PCI-E raid ;)
