Je magasine présentement un ordinateur portable neuf.

Je pourrais consulter les petites annonces classées pour un usager mais je préfère acheter du neuf.

Pas facile de se retrouver dans ma l’océan d’ordinateurs qu’on m’offre.

Je sais que j’ai besoin de 4 gigs de mémoire, de Windows 7 version 64 bits et Home Edition.

Mais pour le processeur.  Ouf!  Le choix est grand et on y paire sa tête tellement que c’est complexe.

Juste pour Intel il  y a les Core 2 Duo. Quad Core 2.  Quad Core Duo.  Double Core 2.  Dual Core, Dual Centrio…

Pour AMD c’est encore pire quand on lit qu’il y a un ordinateur avec un Triple Core.

J’attends de me débrouissailler pour arrêter mon choix.

A notebook or laptop is nothing but a small portable computer that weighs 2.2 to 18 pounds (1 to 8 kg), that depends on its brand, style, size, material it is made of, and many other factors. Notebooks generally operate on a single main battery or through an external adapter that can both charge the battery and also supply power to the notebook.

Notebooks are adept at performing the same jobs like a personal desktop; the only difference is that they are generally less powerful for the same cost. They consist of similar components like desktop computers and execute the same functions, except that they are miniature in size and suitable for transportable use and effective power consumption. Notebooks usually have LCD and different memory modules. They have a built-in keyboard; input is done through a touchpad or a pointing stick, though an external mouse can also be attached.

There are different categories of notebooks. UMPCs are Ultra-Mobile PCs and are very portable. Since they are of a small size they can fit in a small touch screen while some other models have a minute physical keyboard along with a mouse interface. The other type is Ultraportables which are notebooks and have screens less than eleven inches and have less than 3.7 pounds (1.7 kg) of weight. They are generally used by business travelers, as they are small and light though very expensive. They have an extended battery life and integrated graphics. The other type of notebook is the Sony VAIO FJ76, and Dell XPS M1330 and XPS M1210. Then we have the mainstream notebooks that are more of budget desktops. And if you want desktop power, then you can opt for desktop replacement which can accommodate many performance components.

As far as the processors are concerned you should go for the fastest that your budget will allow. You can opt for Intel`s Centrino that has great speed and also good battery life. Or else you can also go for the economic AMD`s mobile processors whose performance still lags behind Intel. If you intend to watch DVDs on your notebook then go for wide screen ones that offer sharper, larger and great images. The only consideration is that they are not meant for carrying around a lot.

For great system performance it is vital to have enough memory (RAM) that will allow you to run many applications together. Adequate RAM is also essential for image and video editing, graphics work, and 3D gaming. Generally notebooks have a terrible sound quality so it is recommended to use speakers or headphones. These are some of the factors that you need to consider before buying a notebook.

Also keep in mind that like any electronic device, your notebook is vulnerable to accidents as well as system failures. It is recommended to get at least a three year warranty and also some additional insurance.

Health hazards related to using a laptop has been a controversial topic for quite some time. Researches have proved that heat generated from notebooks can raise temperature of scrotum, leading to reduced sperm count. A solution can be using it on a table or keeping it apart from the lap that will enable better cooling of the notebook and also prevent your lap from excessive electromagnetic radiation and heat.

Some of the famous brands that have notebook are Acer that have TravelMate, Ferrari and Aspire models; BenQ; Compaq with its Armada, LTE, EVO and Presario models. Other famous brands are Gateway, HCL, Lenovo, LG, Micro-Star International, Panasonic, Samsung, Toshiba and others.

Rating: 9.8/10

Wow, what a laptop! It is simply stunning what modern manufacturing techniques can produce, and at the $1000 price point, this notebook is quite the bargain. The Asus G51vx comes with the following components, and is the first notebook ever to support a GTX 2– series graphics card. It includes:

-Intel Centrino 2 P3570 at 2.0 Ghz

-Nvidia GTX 260M with 1GB of video RAM

-Windows Vista Home Premium 64 Bit OS with a free upgrade to Win7

-A very nice 1366×768 widescreen display

-1.3 megapixel camera

-4 GB RAM

-Wireless B/G/N

- 6 cell battery

-320GB 7200RPM Hard Drive

————————————————————————————–

Condensed Review:

Pros:

Review:

OS Choices

Anyways, lets get started on this article. The G51vx is a quick machine that starts up in under ten seconds and gets you connected to the internet in under five more. This laptop features a fast-startup mode due to a secondary linux OS called “splashtop”. The secondary linux OS features a browser, skype, mail, and a music player. While I do not wish to be trivial, the linux mode is not very necessary, unless one simply requires a quick boot and nothing else. It should be noted that under the quick-boot mode, the pc operates at a slower speed than when everything is fully booted.

Design and Keyboard

Next I would like to talk about the laptop in general. The outside is white and in the upper center of the lid a logo of robotic origin resides. Look at the pictures to get the real feel of this. The inside of the laptop is all black, with chicklet style buttons on the keyboard. The keyboard itself feels sort of different too, since I am used to a full regular key keyboard. The other item is that this keyboard has a full number pad on the right, which I also feel is unnecessary. Asus could have added larger keys, but I am already getting used to the whole layout. The keyboard also features a backlit option, so for those of you who need to look at the keyboard to type (no offense), the light is there for you.

Gaming Performance

As it is marketed, the Asus G51vx is a gaming machine targeted towards, you guessed it, the gaming audience! As it is, I ran a few benchmarks and the results are as follows. I myself do not have 3dmark06, but according to forums, other owners have posted scores ranging from 8k-9k with stock settings.

On games, performance was always phenomenal, but on CPU-intensive games, performance was a tad lower than usual. For example, whilst playing Mirror’s Edge, I was able to turn up the settings to full, with V-sync on as well. The game played fluently for my two hour long gaming sprees. However, with Team Fortress 2, a more CPU intensive game, my fps decreased so I had to disable AA to get a decent frame rate above the fourties. Older games like Counterstrike Source worked flawlessly, usually racking up 120+ fps on full everything. Half-life 2 and all of its sequels ran at full detail fluently for my long gaming events. I must exclaim that Mirror’s Edge is the best looking game ever! With its vivid colors and beautiful city, the game looks amazing on this laptop. I was blown away by this machine’s output.

Crysis, the gamer’s current benchmark, plays at full detail at 20-40 fps on stock drivers. However, according to forums, the laptop can overheat while playing this game on full detail, so a laptop cooler is a must for a notebook with a GTX 260M inside.

In the future, I forecast that this laptop will be able to play most of the games on full detail until the middle of 2011, when some crazy new GPU architecture will force this beast down. Currently I am waiting for Assassin’s Creed 2, Left for Dead 2, Splinter Cell Conviction, and the Star Wars Online RPG.

Is it Worth it?

YES! This laptop has what every gamer needs to play games for the next two and a half years! You will not find many other laptops with this graphics card and this price point. Other systems to look at would be the Gateway P-7805u or the Asus G71GX, if you are into larger screens. Personally, being a college student, I bought this so I could do my work and relax when I had nothing to do. This laptop will last me the next five or so years.

Verdict:

A Intel planeja encerrar algumas de suas marcas, entre as quais a Centrino para PCs, e se concentrar em número menor de nomes, enquanto expande suas atividades a novos mercados como o de chips para aparelhos portáteis.

A fabricante de chips anunciou na quarta-feira que deixará de usar a marca “Centrino” em referência a chips para computadores pessoais a partir do ano que vem, e vai utilizá-la para se referir a produtos para comunicação sem fio nos padrões WiFi ou WiMAX.

A maior fabricante mundial de chips, conhecida por suas onipresentes etiquetas “Intel Inside”, também anunciou que abandonará as subcategorias de sua marca Core, como “Core 2 Duo”.

“Temos uma estrutura complexa, com marcas de plataforma, nomes de produtos e marcas de produto demais e isso torna as coisas mais confusas para os consumidores e compradores de tecnologia da informação”, escreveu Bill Calder, porta-voz da Intel, em um blog da empresa.

“Hoje a marca Core da Intel tem uma ampla gama de derivativos (como Core 2 Duo e Core 2 Quad, etc.). Com o tempo esses nomes serão abandonados e em seu lugar haverá uma família simplificada de processadores Core”, disse ele.

A empresa planeja reordenar sua família Core de microprocessadores usando um esquema de classificação mais simples (Core i3, Core i5 e Core i7), o que descreveria recursos básicos, médios e avançados dentro da linha Core, respectivamente.

Computadores de mesa baseados no chip Core i7 foram lançados em novembro de 2008. A empresa afirma que chips Core i5 e Core i3 sairão nos próximos meses.

Mas a Intel anunciou que manterá seu esquema geral de marcas mais amigáveis aos consumidores como Atom, Celeron, Pentium e Core.

O Atom serve aos netbooks e aparelhos móveis. Os chips Celeron, Pentium e Core foram projetados para computadores de mesa e laptops, e os chips Core são os mais avançados microprocessadores da Intel.

Các dòng chip mới của Intel sẽ mang thương hiệu đơn giản là Core i3 (cơ bản), Core i5 (tầm trung) và Core i7 cao cấp).

Cụ thể hơn, chip dành cho desktop tên mã Lynnfield sẽ gồm hai phiên bản i5 và i7 còn chip Clarksfield dùng trong máy tính xách tay sẽ thuộc dòng cấp cao Core i7. Arrandale (mobile 32 nm) trước tiên sẽ xuất hiện với thương hiệu Core i3 và dần được mở rộng lên i5 và i7 trong khi Clarkdale (desktop 32 nm) sẽ có mặt với các phiên bản i3 và i5.

“Ngay trong nửa cuối năm nay, sản phẩm Core i5 và một số bản i7 mới sẽ được bán ra thị trường. Đến đầu 2010 sẽ có thêm các sản phẩm i3 được xuất xưởng”, Deborah Conrad, Phó chủ tịch Intel, viết trên website của hãng này.

Song song với việc xuất hiện sản phẩm mới, các thương hiệu cũ như Core 2 Duo, Core 2 Quad sẽ dần biến mất. Centrino vẫn có mặt trên thị trường máy tính trong năm tới nhưng về sau sẽ chỉ được đưa vào các thiết bị Wi-Fi và WiMAX.

“Chúng tôi cũng sẽ vẫn duy trì Celeron cho máy tính giá rẻ, Pentium trong các hệ thống cơ bản và Atom cho netbook. Nói cách khác, Celeron là lựa chọn tốt cho khách hàng, Pentium còn tốt hơn và Intel Core là tốt nhất”, Conrad khẳng định.

…da muss man schon die Intel-Palette auswendig lernen, denn die Notebook-Kandidaten werden unauffällig in die Schublade der Intel Core-Prozessoren geworfen, kündigte nun Marketing-Direktorin Deborah Conrad an. Da die Produktbezeichnung Core i7 bei den Verbrauchern super ankam, wolle man nun “Core i3″ und “Core i5″ einführen. Das erinnert an Auto-Modelle und man weiß gleich, welche CPU die kleinere und langsamere sein dürfte. Begriffe wie Core 2 Duo und Quad sollen konsequenterweise mittelfristig verschwinden.

CENTRINO 2: MAYOR RENDIMIENTO PORTÁTIL

Desde 2003, Intel ha estado lanzando actualizaciones de la plataforma Centrino, manteniendo el mismo nombre y el mismo isologo. La empresa ya presentó las versiones Carmel (2003), Sonoma (2005), Napa (2006) y Santa Rosa (2007) de la plataforma Centrino. Con estos antecedentes, y con el fin de indicar el avance que representa la quinta generación de plataforma Centrino respecto a la anteriores, Intel decidió adoptar el nombre Centrino 2.

Intel has revamped its processor badging and rating system. Consumers are the main target, though business systems will get new badging too.

The new badges include a die (the chip minus the packaging) accent in the upper right hand corner, a prominent main brand (e.g., “Core”), and the modifier (e.g., “i7″).

Intel has also instituted a star system that rates chips from five stars (best performance in class) to one star (lowest performance). “So when a consumer goes into a Best Buy store they can distinguish between Centrino, Core, Celeron, Core 2 Duo, Core 2 Quad,” said Intel spokesman Bill Calder.

That may be a little easier said than done, however. Some consumers (but not including “tech savvy” Giampaolo, of course) will still need help from the sales person to decipher the badging. A daunting challenge in the case of consumer laptops, which are typically plastered with a hodgepodge of stickers from Intel, Nvidia, Advanced Micro Devices, AMD’s ATI graphics chip unit, and other companies.

Intel is in the process of moving to a “pretty aggressive brand simplification plan,” Calder said. “When we launched Core i7, we said we’re moving to a single primary client brand, which is Core. We’re moving in that direction,” he said.

The Atom processor will not get a modifier. In the future, the Nehalem server processor, currently branded only as “Xeon” with a letter and number suffix, may also get new branding to make it more readily identifiable as part of the Nehalem architecture like its desktop sibling the Core i7, Calder said.

New mobile, server chips

Intel updated its processor list Monday with new Core 2 chips for Macbook Air-class laptops and a crush of Xeon processors for workstations and servers.

The number of new processor models is 20 in all.

Intel has introduced new power-sipping low-voltage (LV) and ultra-low-voltage (ULV) processor models for laptops such as the Apple MacBook Air and Dell Adamo.

The new LV and ULV processor models include the 17-watt SL9600 (2.13GHz, $316) and 10-watt SU9600 (1.6GHz, $289). More power-hungry Intel mainstream mobile processors are typically rated at 25 watts or 35 watts.

And over a dozen new Xeon quad-core processors based on Intel’s new Nehalem chip architecture were added to the Intel price list.

Processors in the Xeon 5500 series range in price from $1,600 for the 130-watt W5580 (3.2GHz) to $423 for the 60-watt L5506 (2.13GHz). Intel, for the first time, is also listing each new Xeon chip’s giga-transfers-per-second rating (GT/sec). For example, the W5580 is rated at 6.40 GT/sec, while the L5506 is rated at 4.80 GT/sec.

Other Xeon 5500 series models include the 95-watt X5550 (2.66GHz, $958), the 80-watt E5520 (2.26GHz, $373), and the 60-watt L5520 (2.26GHz, $530).

Intel also debuted the Xeon 3500 series, including the 130-watt W3570 (3.2GHz, $999) and the 130-watt W3520 (2.66GHz, $284).
