Qosmio G40 PQG40A 00Y014 Laptop Reviews

The next model in Qosmio G40 PQG40A 00Y014 Mainframe line up of home entertainment oriented notebooks has arrived. Two huge equipment were plotted for the G40 before Qosmio G40 PQG40A 00Y014 Mainframe release; Qosmio G40 PQG40A 00Y014 Mainframe was to be built on Intel’s latest Centrino platform and Qosmio G40 PQG40A 00Y014 Mainframe was to contain and HD-DVD-RW drive; a step up from the most contemporary Qosmio G30′s HD-DVD-R drive. Even if, even as the G40 can map a new Centrino platform, Toshiba has resolute to hold back on the HD-DVD-RW drive due to a lack of HD-DVD-RW media in Australia.

An Intel T7500 2.20GHz CPU with an 800MHz front side bus is at the sensitivity of the Qosmio G40 PQG40A 00Y014 Mainframe and Qosmio G40 PQG40A 00Y014 Mainframe is coupled with 2GB of DDR2 667MHz RAM. One of NVIDIA’s new 8600M GT graphics cards installed, supporting DirectX 10 and with 512MB of record RAM at Qosmio G40 PQG40A 00Y014 Mainframe disposal.
The G40 is certainly an evolutionary step up, rather than revolutionary, with many of the changes diagonal towards HD-DVD playback. As well as a showy fix the G40 now has a four lecturer logic, counting two ordinary speakers privileged than the keyboard and two tweeters mounted into the bezel nearly the cover. There’s also a subwoofer, and ordinary level bass sounds fantastic, but starts to wain at privileged volumes. Meanwhile the bracing 17in cover offering a resolution of 1920 x 1200 looks wonderful and has an brilliant viewing angle. The two lamps grant fantastic draw a distinction and brightness. Surveillance The Matrix in full 1080p HD was a pleasure on this machine.
HD-DVD recordable discs initiation from 15GB in their most basic form, but boost in size with dual layer or dual sided discs. We were able to burn 13.9GB of data to a blank Verbatim 15GB (1x recordable) disc in 58 summary. This time is on par with the before models.
A dual digital TV-tuner has been installed, which allows you to view both normal and HD/digital channels. The release card allows one channel to be watched, even as recording another at the same time, or recording two channels at once. Two 200GB hard drives grant bounty of recording interval and may possibly be set up in a Raid array for superfluous speed or data wellbeing, even if our assess model had neither in house. It also sports a 2 megapixel camera (built into the cover) for record chat; a step up from the 1.3 megapixel cameras found on most additional notebooks.
Throughout our benchmarks we saw no marked enhancement in the performance of the G40 over also built G30 models, even if it performs well, nonetheless. This was a modest surprising as we’ve seen brilliant results from additional notebooks by the new Intel platform. In WorldBench 6 it scored a total of 79. In our MP3 encoding test it was able to chat 53 summary value of WAV records to 192Kbps MP3 records in 77 seconds with iTunes and 119 seconds by CDex. iTunes is quicker than Cdex as it uses both cores of the CPU even as Cdex can only utilise one.
In gaming tests Qosmio G40 PQG40A 00Y014 Mainframe survived but should not be painstaking an aficionado’s gaming machine. By 3DMark 2006 at the default settings it scored 2850. In 3DMark 2001 SE it nailed a notch of 21654 screening it’s competent of running newer sports meeting but will handle grown-up sports meeting with ease. In FEAR, by the maximum feature settings at a resolution of 1024 x 768 it achieved only 24 frames per second, which is playable but only just. At decrease settings it should run quicker.
The new look of the Qosmio G40 PQG40A 00Y014 Mainframe is more animated than its predecessor; the keyboard and the surrounding area of the chassis is colorless, even as the rest is a glossy piano black. Between the cover and the glowing LED buttons the G40 illumination up like a Mack car at nighttime, even if they can be twisted off at the push of a pin.
Qosmio G40 PQG40A 00Y014 Mainframe still a honestly generous notebook, weighing a levelheaded 5.5kg with its power give – which gives it more of a desktop-substitution suspicion. Qosmio G40 PQG40A 00Y014 Mainframe also clearly has home entertainment as a key design consideration. With the lid open it looks and feels very much like a notebook, even if with the lid closed, it takes on a more set-top-box aesthetic than additional notebooks. This is primarily because the optical drive is front loading, which makes it more accessible when placed in a cupboard with your additional AV gear.
Disparate the before models the volume control cannot be accessed with the lid closed, but Toshiba supplies a full-sized Media Center remote control with the unit. Also supplied is an IR extender, which can be placed in line-of-site of your remote, even if the bulk of the unit is obscure behind a cupboard door or additional obstruction.
A 3.5mm AV to RCA AV cable adapter also ships in the sales package, allowing you to connect the G40 to a signal logic receiver or TV. Even if, if you want to get the best audio and record feature from this CD beast an HDMI productivity is unfilled on the back edge and an S-Record port is also on place forward. Naturally a VGA port is unfilled for connecting to a notebook mind. Overall we found Qosmio G40 PQG40A 00Y014 Mainframe quite conveniently designed to act as both a notebook and an entertainment unit.

When the lid is open the volume can be controlled via a generous silver dial on the left of the keyboard. Another silver control pad on the right of the keyboard is the AV controller. Privileged than the keyboard are a set of media joystick counting skip track, stop, play/intermission and confirmation. There’s also a digit of shortcuts for TV, Media Center, brightness record-out and one to the Dolby virtual surround signal settings, a map that enhances the signal for virtual 5.1 audio.
Aside from the media ports the G40 also has five USB 2.0 ports, one mini FireWire port, a PC Card and an Express Card slot and an S-Record input. A fingerprint scanner is located between the mouse buttons and the power pin is just privileged than the volume control.
