Question from Kai: Asked on 03/04/2009 Hi, in reviews for the GT725-087UK I read on the internet it contained 2 blank DVDs (to make backup discs), a MSI branded backpack to carry the laptop in and a gaming mice.

Question from sleek: Asked on 27/03/2009 Does the quad core version have the black/silver colour scheme, like in Germany?
Question from Dav0s: Asked on 26/03/2009 In addition to SteveF's answer on RC's question: it also has a BluRay-drive.
It says 'Available for pre-order', any idea when it's delivered? Because the -087 mentions 'stock due 6th of april'. Is this the same for the -210?
Question from RC: Asked on 25/03/2009 Hi, what's the difference between the -087UK and -210UK? Is it just in the CPU, one being dual core while the other one is quad core?
Also I have seen other web stating the -087UK as 1680x1050 being the maximum resolution instead of 1920x1200, can you confirm which one is correct? Thanks
Question from Crunchie: Asked on 25/03/2009 Hi, Im interested in this laptop. I see that stock is due on 30th March. Have these all been snapped up yet or will some still be available? And is the due date correct considering the duel core is due a week later? Thanks
Question from JP: Asked on 23/03/2009 Hi, im interested in buying a msi gt 725 210uk laptop. It will be used mainly for playing games such as Empire Total War, Crysis etc. Would you recommend this machine, or do you think i would be better suited to a different model? Cheers.
