It's based on Intel's Core i series ULVs with integrated graphics. Lenovo hasn't given any info regarding the ThinkPad X1 carbon's GPU. Probably because, it's an ultrabook and not a gaming laptop.

It is not a multimedia device. It is a business ultrabook. Probably the GPU is not worth special mentioning and hence, the details are not provided on the official webpage of the Thinkpad X1 Carbon: http://www.lenovo.com/products/us/tech-specs/laptop/thinkpad/x-series/x1-carbon/ Good aspects are the option 3G, which means, you don't need to carry a 3G dongle or search for a WiFi connection to connect to the Internet. Another interesting aspect is, the laptop does not have a regular ethernet port. Instead, you need a USB to ethernet adapter to connect to Wired network. Having only two USB ports appears to the norm of the day as soon on this high end laptop. Unfortunately, you have to depend on a USB hub or more wireless enabled peripherals to connect more devices. Techtree: Looking forward for a hands-on review on this device from you sometime soon.
