Choose a laptop

Hello

Could you help me choose a laptop?
It must be:
(1) compalible Linux (Fedora 10/9)
(2) rather lite
(4) powerful

PS: My laptop IBM ThinkPad is 6 years old. And it still works!

  • Choose a laptop: I have two choices

    I have two laptops to choose from for the first edition and Photoshopping. There will be videos for editing a ton, but nothing for 2 min and nothing fancy, that requires a lot of rendering. I know that these are the most desirable, but the budget has decreased.

    Lenovo Y50

    Intel core i5 4th Gen

    8 GB RAM

    1 TB HD + 8 GB SSHD

    NVIDIA GTX 860M

    and...

    Z710 Lenovo

    Intel core i7 4710MQ

    2.4 Ghz

    8 GB RAM

    1 TB HD

    GeForce 745

    The prices are the same. And I will be upgrading to 16 GB of RAM.

    Then...

    The i7 is better on the z710. That's right Quad Core? But isn't the i5?

    I don't even know the speed of treatment on the y50.  But the 8 GB SSHD adds something important, is it not? And the graphics card is better...

    Which should I choose?

    Thank you!

    The processor is the first and most important.  Certainly the z710 is by far the best choice between the two.

    What I find interesting is that Intel specifications for i7 4710MQ are actually 2.5 GHz

    Here's the info on the dual core i5

    This hybrid drive with the small SSD is of little value and the worst of all the part of the hard disk is a disk 5400 RPM

    Be sure to what z710 you watch: "Z710 Standard models come with 1366 x 768 wide screen resolution." It's under Adobe Premiere standard required.  Also, some the Z710 I watched the 1 TB drive is also 5400 RPM.  If you get this in any unit you will find t strongly suggest upgrading to an SSD (good).

    These units have USB3 ports.  If you get one of the best USB3 Flash Drives and you do the upgrade of the disk internal SSD, you'll have a pretty decent first computer editing for most of the media of 1080.

    It depends on the purpose of your laptop (eg. portability vs gaming). With respect to the components, peple might disagree with me, but I recommend to choose configurations Intel Centrino. This means that the a mobile processor from Intel, Intel Chipset, Intel Graphics and Intel wireless adapters.

    The reason is that that Intel components usually work out of the box with Linux, Intel still provides open source drivers, even for the acceleration hardware 3d. Even if the yield is low compared to ATI or Nvidia.

    I don't know, however, if a Toshiba laptop is the best solution. Computers laptop Toshiba have a large number of soft keys, etc. then you might be required to do a lot of tweaking.

  • This laptop is good for games like WoW or the Sims 3?

    I want to get a new laptop around the mark of $400 - $800 or less may be possible (but I doubt it) that can operate computer games and is good for other things.

    Does anyone know a good laptop, I could get?

    Hello

    If you want to use the laptop for games, I recommend buying one with an external graphics card. Means the graphics card should not be a part on Intel CPU (Intel HD GPU) but you must choose the laptop with a chip graphic ATI or nVidia GPU.

    See the Toshiba product page for more details on laptops equipped with such GPU

    Hi Yann,

    Try the following.

    Download the installer of IDT relevant Audio of the Yolaine below and save it in your downloads folder.

    IDT Audio Driver - Windows 7.

    IDT Audio Driver - Windows 8.

    One time finished, open windows control panel, open Device Manager and open sound, video and game controllers.  Right click on the IDT device and select uninstall - also, you should get a command prompt to delete the current driver, check the box allow this and then proceed to uninstall.

    When you're done, shut down the laptop, unplug the AC adapter and then remove the battery.  Press and hold the Power button for 30 seconds.  Reinsert the battery and plug in the AC adapter.

    Robinet tap away at the key esc that you start the computer to launch the Start Menu, and then select f10 to open the bios menu.  Press f5 to load the default values (sometimes it's f9, but the menu below indicates the correct key), use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and press ENTER.  Press f10 to save the setting and still use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and press on enter.

    Allow Windows to fully - charge it will automatically load an audio driver, but let just this complete.  Then open your download folder, right-click on the IDT Installer and select "Run as Administrator" to launch the installation.  Once this done, do a right-click the speaker icon in the taskbar and select playback devices.  'Speakers and headphones' left click once to highlight, and then click the Set Default button - check if you now audio.

    Kind regards

  • What do you think of this laptop?

    Choose a laptop as my only one I did by a month ago has turned to a point of sale.  Here are the configurations: DV4T series, operating system WIndows Vista Premium 32 bit processor is the processor Intel Core Duo Processor P7450 (2.13 GHz) hard drive 250 GB SATA 5400 RPM hard drive and graphics card has 512 NVIDIA GeForce 9200 M GS.  Is this good?  Please let me know what you think.  Thank you in advance.

    If that's all you want to do any new laptop on the market well fills the Bill. Seriously the current material is incredibly strong and able to multitask with ease, computers even 2 or 3 years ago. In fact, I disagree on the Intel graphics. I have Intel graphics card on my laptop because I do graphics stuff that requires something better, but recent versions of Intel Graphics Media Accelerator are more then good for everyday and very stable and reliable computing. I agree to stay away from nVidia graphics right now if you can, but go with Intel or ATI and you will be fine unless you pick up a habit of game in this case, you want the ATI card.

  • HDMI is not send the signal on external monitor once the laptop awakens from his sleep

    I have my TV as a second monitor for my laptop. I connected via HDMI. Once I leave my laptop a little past in mode 'sleep' and the screen loses the connection.

  • Can anyone recommend a new laptop for CS6

    I need help to choose a laptop to run well on Win7 or Win8 CS6.  I would also appreciate advice on how to set it up, given the limitations compared to a desktop computer.  Thank you.

    Wayne,

    I don't think that I can recommend specific models for you because they are usually specific to each region. What's available here not necessarily may be available here where you come.

    However, the main things you should look for in your specifications:

    • Core i3 / i5 / i7 CPU (clock speed, better performance)
    • Good amount of RAM (support at least for the right amount for future updates) - 8 GB or more for Photoshop CS6
    • The most important hard - bit disk - consider get a SSD – or if this isn't an option, look for players with RPM more high for lower latency
    • If you are a designer, liked the screen, better experience. Or buy an external display and connect your laptop to the
    • Video card - again, more important bit - look at a "dedicated" - minimum 1Gig video card, I would recommend 2 GB of video RAM

    Other than that, all the other features of series shouldn't really matter.

    I accidentally installed a Windows V-Touch Server on my windows pre-installed on the book Ultra from Toshiba. I reinstalled windows, but now all drivers are missing.

Also, I remember there was a utility manager Toshiba where the software has been found and updated via this tool do not know if it was the name of the tool, but it was in the windows task bar.

  • Satellite A80-154: Questions on BIOS/cooling

    Dear Sir or Madam,

    I recently bought a Satellite A80 154 of the German retailer "Media Markt" for only EUR 1299,-.

    Although the general impression of the laptop is fine, I have two questions that make me think back to the seller. The questions are:

    (1) cooling system is too strong, in particular Linux, which is my main platform. However, the problem occurs on Windows, where I am able to slow down the CPU frequency (but not GPU) with an average success in terms of reduction of sound intensity.

    (2) bios of a laptop is by Phoenix and not Toshiba, which I expect to find (it's a big problem for me, since the Linux kernel for Toshiba laptops support is much better than that of Phoenix BIOS).

    Here are my questions:

    Toshiba selling different versions of the Satellite A80 154? (for example a good market with Phoenix bios and more expensive with a Toshiba bios and improved cooling). If they did, I would invest the additional EUR 300,- and buy one directly from Toshiba (if possible at all). I also ask, because I tried to update the Bios with version 1.70 - WIN (is this Toshiba BIOS?) from the BIOS download site unfortunately without success (he complains about the size of the bad bios).
    Is it possible to operate an A80-154 with BIOS Toshiba (and this would reduce the level of noise)?

    Sincerely yours.
    Martin Spindler.
    PS: Will to sell Toshiba laptops supports the new standard MXM in the near future?
    PPS: Please respond directly to the [email protected]

    [Edited by: admin]

    Hello

    1, on the volume of the cooling system, I can only advice you the Toshiba Power Saver or 4.23 SPEEDFAN tool.

    2, which has your BIOS model depends on the series of products. If you want a Toshiba BIOS, you must choose a laptop as the M40 Satellite, Tecra M3, Tecra A4 or Tecra M4.
    You can also ask your local dealer or test it!
