There’s also an NVIDIA GeForce GT 730M or GT 650M graphics card with 2 GB of VRAM, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 4.0, 1.3 MP web camera, a card reader, USB 2.0 and USB 3.0 ports and D-Sub and HDMI outputs. The entire device weighs 1.59/1.69 kilograms and measures 339 x 233 x 18.5-21 mm.

The Gigabyte U2442F Extreme is likely to run Windows 8 just like the other U2442 models. As of now pricing is unknown.
