T510 i7 - 620 m option! but... 4MB L3?

So I want to buy this T510, but go through the comparison process I would like to understand why they have chosen to offer this config. during the generation of the process i.e. i7 - 620 m with 4 MB of cache L2, FSB to 1066 MHz. and not a 6 MB L3.

Direct competitors offer the i7-720QM with 6 MB L3 FSB.

It's maybe just a little different. but I want to know before making a decision of Lenovo based.

The other 3 units of comparison are:

HP dv6t, Studio from Dell, Toshiba satellite A500-st6647(these are all Costco website based purchase options)

All have dedicated graphics 512 MB or better.

There is no doubt the overall T510 is a far superior unit @ $500.0 more average in the generation of customers options.

Main question still exists... is the config. I7 - 620 M with 4 MB of cache L2 that Lenovo offers a good choice at $500 more.

Thanx in ADV for your entry

The i7-720 is a Quad core, so 6 mb L3 would be similar to 3 MB L3 on a dual core (not quite, but it's not as much of advantage that it would seem).

The 720 vs 620 would be to you and your use.  The 720 will clearly have a performance advantage (treatment), but if you frequently use the battery, it will give you much less battery life.  The 620 also manages a bit cooler as well.

I'm biased towards the Lenovo (ThinkPad) since I've had a great experience with them, love their quality of construction and reliability (durability) long term.  I've had nothing that good experiences with this T500

Good luck, whatever you choose.

  • Hi, im using ff 8.1 and when I use drop drop-down options, but it does not change when I select an option.

    So im using this site and I'm not sure if this problem occurs with other website because I had not everything, but I select the drop-down list in the box, the options appear, I select an option, but it does not actually use my option it just goes back to default. This site is like an interface to fill, so I need to save it to the end, but firefox does not allow me to do so either.
    It works on google chrome thin so I doubt that it is a problem with the site. I just installed firefox 8.1 and have not changed the settings or applied in the addons.

    Starting Firefox in safe mode and disable the correct hardware acceleration of the problem.

    Dear sir\madam

    I am using the windows 7 every time I am double clicking in the drive and the folder open in the new window only. I even changed this option in the FOLDER AND SEARCH option, but it is futile his does not work. Friends by saying: it is a virus. Please help me solve this problem.

    Thanks and greetings

    I am not sure, I've not had the problem myself, but a quick search found this - http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-files/folders-open-in-new-window-despite-folder-option/5fba3897-7655-4068-8992-2d8b20063b3f

    Good reading and see if you think it's the same problem. If so and the choice of folder option certainly does not work for you, there are a few things to try to make up a batch file and it works from a simple sfc/scannow (I have not tried but it is marked as answer).

    It will be useful.

    If you suspect a virus, update your anti-virus software and run a full scan, then download, install, update and run a scan complete with (free) malwarebytes. Just run as free on demand, no need to check for any trial etc.

  • I tried to disable "remember passwords for sites" option, but when I exit Firefox and returned, the option is enabled. The solutions page do not help.

    It is a general problem I have with the saving options. It only started a few days ago.

    I lived it in 37.0.2 and 38.0.5.

    Help page https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-to-fix-preferences-wont-save

    contains several solutions. I tried them all and they do not work.
    Please notify.

    The two suggested solutions were things that I had already tried without success.

    Finally, what works after much trial and error:
    1 back up all my favorites.
    2 uninstall Firefox.
    3 reinstall Firefox but important! not begin immediately after installation!
    4. run firefox.exe Pei from the command window.
    5. in the Profile Manager, delete all the existing profiles and create a new.
    6. start Firefox, import bookmarks and set the options.

    The options will now be saved!

  • Under folder disappeared with the emails. E-mails can still be found with search option but does not display text

    A bunch of my subfolders to sort my email disappeared, which has been brought to my attention when TB tried to sort my mails and said that the subfolder does not exist. I've recreated the subfolders with the same name as before and when I entered the new subfolder I was surprised to see that all the past E-mail were in it. However, when I opened the email body of emails were empty. (I even tried to syntax highlighting for white text as suggested in the line, but nothing)

    I used the "search for emails"options to try to find, using the title of the emails as search parameter, that is to say "received for your PalPay payment" and the search results gave me the results of all the missing emails with the full text of each e-mail. " However, when I went into individual emails (or open emails as option in the list) the text was not yet there. It must be here somewhere because the search option is to find.

    I tried to delete the profile (global-messages - db.sqlite) in the hope that he would bring back the text but it did not work. Most of the emails that are empty is financial in nature and I would like to return.

    Help!

    Thank you, John Jaeger

    Thanks for trying. Cannot find missing files anywhere. Returned in time machine and pulled the 'old' if only lost a couple of weeks of mail. in these files.

    Thanks again

  • When you use Itunes on my Ipod Touch 5 generation, the Ipod is no longer automatically past from one song to another. This seems to be a novelty. There is a button on the RIGHT side of the upper third of the screen where you can choose options but go n0.

    When you use ITunes on my Ipod Touch 5 Gen, running IOS 9.2, he has recently stopped automatically switch a song on one album to another while listening to ITunes. I discovered a button with 3 points to the RIGHT side of each title of the song which, when typed gives a different options for example then played, add up to the next etc.. If you use these all this seems to get worse with more choices that appear. I know that sounds incredible, but I have owned several Ipods that I use just for listening to music. Mine is a 32 GB version that can store a large number of albums, most of which I bought and loaded into my Ipod. A few albums that I downloaded from ITunes. How can I get it from my Ipod to listen to music in the ITunes application without having to select one of the 55 options?

  • Meta Refresh does not refresh the menu drop-down select options but don't check the boxes... IE works without error (Max FF issue)

    Drop-down list not update even if the html code was changed using the meta refresh tag. The problem has been resolved by deleting the name of the list in the html code in the part of my page refresh. It's a php script, so I can do but with html directly, I don't see a way to solve the problem for others finding this a problem, FF should not do this.

    Example:

    < select name = "page_header_color" >

                 <option >blue</option>
               <option >green</option>
               <option selected >red</option>
               <option >black</option>
               <option >silver</option>
             </select>
    

    whether refresh properly changed to this:

    < select name = "" >

                 <option >-------</option>
             </select>
    

    the script modifies the page preceding between the discount and the 'real' html that resolves this problem, otherwise FF does not update the drop-down lists at all, but it is updated check boxes and everything.

    You must reload and bypass the cache to reset the choices made through selection and from the drop-down list boxes.

    Otherwise the selection are reloaded from the cache, so a meta reload does not work either (can work if you reset the through an onload event).
