Technical Express

Right after the debut of the popular Tablet PC in 2003, MSI launches the first available model, MEGABOOK M510C, which not only uses the latest Intel Centrino chipset to increase excellent performance and wireless Internet access (Wi-Fi) but incorporates a 4-in-1 card reader, high-speed optical storage drive and IEEE 1394 and USB 2.0 ports to let you fully enjoy the modern digital life with the wireless Internet access.

A Perfect and Quiet Cooling System

The 15" high-brightness LCD monitor and slim chassis in pearl white lets the MSI M510C look elegant and stand out from the crowd. Furthermore, MSI's exclusive H.T.M. and CoreCell™ technology can automatically detect the system and set the best operational frequency for the processor, which easily make the long-time system running quiet and cool. Meanwhile, through controlling fan speed and power circuit frequency, the system will stay with stable temperature to achieve stability, high performance and durability.

PC Alert4 can detect system temperature, the status of voltage, fans and all other key components onboard. If any problem occurs, it will alert the user to correct the problem, reducing the risk of system damage. If the system temperature stays low, the CoreCell™ chip will slow the fan speed automatically to reduce the noise and boost the audio quality.
