LG unveils new XPION R20, S20 Core 2 Quad desktops

The details have emerged today on a couple new LG "high performance" desktops in Asia, so if you've been lying awake at night wondering when a new XPION would be hitting the scene, perhaps this evening you'll rest a little easier. The R20 is a slim form factor desktop PC featuring a 2.33GHz Intel Core 2 Quad CPU, 3GB memory, a GeForce 9500GS GPU, and a cooling system "based on Multi Direction Platform Cooling, which also makes it run fairly quietly." Even less is known about the S20, aside from the fact that it's a standard-sized desktop, sports an Intel Core 2 Quad 2.66GHz CPU and a GeForce 9600GT GPU. That's all we have at the moment, little dude. So just try and relax -- you'll know more as soon as we do.

Core 2...?

Those are so last week... literally...

[rock99rock @ Nov 17th 2008 9:13PM]

Ain't that a pip?

[Flashpoint @ Nov 17th 2008 9:18PM]

I got someting big and black she can lay on her thigh.

[chrise524 @ Nov 17th 2008 9:26PM]

Ya, where are the i7's?

[Shinigami @ Nov 18th 2008 1:16AM]

Core 2 life has been prolonged to 2011, its going to be "so last week" starting Jan 5 2012. Literary.

PS: I bet these PCs will be overpriced...

[youngstunna @ Nov 17th 2008 9:03PM]

sure they're last week, but that probably means their price will drop. its not like they're garbage processors now.

[Skrying @ Nov 17th 2008 11:23PM]

No, the Core 2 prices will not change except for the very high end ones most likely. Middle and low end based Core i7 processors won't appear on the market till mid 2009 at best. This means the Core 2 Duo and Quad are the best processors in their respective markets. Really, the big news here is why an OEM computer launch is worth any news when they just appear to be glossy knockoffs of Dell computers likely made in the same plants...

[Metkis @ Nov 17th 2008 9:04PM]

I know it has been said before thousands of times, but...


Does she come with it? :D

[JStro @ Nov 17th 2008 9:15PM]

Yes, only if you (and only you) order one right now. Not only will she personally deliver it to you, she will also give you a swift kick to the nuts for being such an idiot.

[Metkis @ Nov 17th 2008 9:20PM]

Aww, no need to resort to the tusslin'. It's a Monday night and I know we all have a full week ahead of us. Why have a little fun eh?

[lawyer bird @ Nov 17th 2008 10:52PM]

I bet that's a nice box

...not so sure about the computer.

[xconan @ Nov 19th 2008 2:02AM]

wasn't she the model for the samsung lcd display? nicer shot this time around...

[The Joker @ Nov 17th 2008 9:07PM]

That chick looks like a chipmunk.

[Metkis @ Nov 17th 2008 9:12PM]

I've never seen a chipmunk with those legs before.

[tom @ Nov 17th 2008 10:47PM]

It's recession, LG is broke. They can afford hot chicks. Chipmunk face is all they can afford.

Life's (not so) Good

[linuxamp @ Nov 17th 2008 11:02PM]

1) She's very cute.
2) Wasn't she working for Samsung before?

[Rotaryfan @ Nov 17th 2008 11:37PM]

models should be more than slightly attractive broheim. I've never seen an ugly american model.

[Metkis @ Nov 18th 2008 1:04AM]

Linux, how the hell did you remember that...

[James @ Nov 18th 2008 2:04AM]

Linux do you save all of the pictures of cute Asian girls engadget uses in its posts? You know there are other sites out there that specialize in what you want.

PS

If you do please forward them to me i dont feel like sifting through all the apple posts trying to find them.

Thank you

[NHAnimator @ Nov 18th 2008 8:05AM]

"That chick looks like a chipmunk."

Insert random "nuts" joke here.

[Str1ker @ Nov 18th 2008 3:12PM]

@linuxamp: are you sure it's the same girl? All asians do look the same you know (males and females together)

[dude @ Nov 17th 2008 9:08PM]

Hello Dave...

[)ROFL( @ Nov 17th 2008 9:13PM]

Meet my ladyfriend.

[aznofazns @ Nov 17th 2008 9:11PM]

"if you've been lying awake at night wondering when a new XPION would be hitting the scene" ...

more like lying awake at night wondering why I haven't scored a chick like that... probably 'cause I spend my time reading this blog.

[austin @ Nov 17th 2008 9:41PM]

eh. her eyes are spaced kinda far apart.

[dj @ Nov 17th 2008 9:13PM]

I'm not too sure she's of this planet.

[tony @ Nov 17th 2008 9:15PM]

butter face

[blaze @ Nov 17th 2008 9:24PM]

lmao i agree 100%

[cesium @ Nov 17th 2008 9:32PM]

Yep, for sure

[aznofazns @ Nov 17th 2008 9:37PM]

Oh come on guys, I think she's cute. Besides, I bet none of you have girlfriends as attractive as her.

[schtum @ Nov 17th 2008 10:58PM]

I'm pretty sure that's an 8 year old's head photoshopped onto a grown woman's body.

[ugg.tryptophan @ Nov 17th 2008 10:41PM]

choosy beggars

[xor24 @ Nov 17th 2008 10:48PM]

aznofazns you are so right mine is way hotter then her.

[DT @ Nov 17th 2008 10:59PM]

Ha, that's what I came here to say... total butter face!

(and yes, mine is MUCH better... legs and all)

[irdepesca @ Nov 17th 2008 11:04PM]

you know what they say...

pics or ..

[giuliop @ Nov 17th 2008 9:17PM]

Does XPION stand for XP dominatION?

[Vegetable @ Nov 17th 2008 9:36PM]

Isn't this the same girl who sat with the LCD screen a few days back? The one they chose specifically because of her small size giving the viewer the impression that the product is smaller than it really is?

[Vegetable @ Nov 17th 2008 9:38PM]

Er, bigger.

[ED @ Nov 17th 2008 10:57PM]

That's what she said.

[Rekit @ Nov 17th 2008 9:39PM]

I don't know who I'm more jealous of... the girl, or the computer.

Christ, I'm a geek.

[michas_pi @ Nov 17th 2008 9:40PM]

She looks amazing.









And the computer looks pretty good, too.

[Michael Scrip @ Nov 17th 2008 9:43PM]

Is the shiny black plastic phase over yet?

That stuff scratches too easily.

[Mac @ Nov 17th 2008 9:47PM]

Which one :)

[Shiz @ Nov 17th 2008 9:45PM]

Ya she does have a chipmunk face.....those cheeks can probably store some good nut.


Oh, and the computers are nice although the processors are SOOO last week.

[Valicore @ Nov 17th 2008 9:52PM]

Does anyone else find this hilarious? Nothing makes me want to buy a computer like some random Korean chick with a "Come meet my computeru, baby." And actually, she does look kind of like an alien.

[Cybergypsy @ Nov 17th 2008 10:00PM]

Yawn...............

[Shawn @ Nov 17th 2008 10:20PM]

I like that lady
Isn't she lovely, fellas?
Let's move to Japan!

[blaze @ Nov 17th 2008 10:26PM]

u mean Korea...
jeez u ppl are so ignorant of the asian cultures

[linuxamp @ Nov 17th 2008 11:06PM]

@blaze I know all about asian cultures but you gotta admit, she does look Japanese.

[Rotaryfan @ Nov 17th 2008 11:36PM]

Flop.
