The Asus UL30VT is a thin and light notebook with a 13.3 inch display. It features a convenient switchable graphics option which allows you to use either the discrete NVIDIA G210 or the integrated GMA 4500MHD. The discrete GPU will come handy when performance matters. And when you want to conserve battery life you can switch to the integrated graphics.

The UL30VT isn’t much different from the UL30A. But unlike the later, the former comes with a discrete GPU option. In overall aesthetics and keyboard layout the two notebooks aren’t much different.

The Asus UL30VT is powered by a 1.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo SU7300 processor. The processor can be overclocked. Up to 4GB of DDR3 RAM can be installed. The machine runs Windows 7 Home Premium.
