MSI has unveiled a new X-Slim series 14-incher, the AMD-based X430. Unlike the previous X410, which was based on the venerable Athlon Neo MV-40, the X430 offers a bit more CPU/chipset combo.

The X430 will ship with Athlon Neo X2 dual-core processors and it also got a new, more power efficient RS780MN+SB710 chipset with Radeon HD3200 integrated graphics.

The rest of the spec remains unchanged. 14-inch 1366x768 glare screen packed in a 349x234x24.5 mm chassis weighing around 1.5kg with a 4-cell battery. An 8-cell unit is optional. The X430 features 2GB of DDR2 667 RAM, up to 500GB storage, draft-n wireless and optional Bluetooth and optical drive.
