Light and ­phenomenally thin,the MSI X400 is definitely for those on the go who wish to make a statement with their gadgets. Overall, the MSI X400 is a revolutionarily designed machine and brings the appeal back to laptops considering the flourishing netbook market. The X Slim Series wins because of its weight and portability. The MSI X400 is worth considering for those of you who have problems with small 10in netbooks as the MSI X Slim Series comes in various screen sizes starting from 13in.

Intel Graphics Media Accelerator (GMA) 4500MHD: Onboard (shared Memory) GPU built in the GM45, GE45 and GS45 chipset (Montevina). Because of two more shaders and a higher core clock, much faster than the old GMA X3100. Still not advisable for gamers (DirectX 10 games not playable or only with very low settings).

Lower end of Graphics Cards for users who want to play games. New games should run on these cards, but only with decreased details and mediocre resolution.
