Sony vaio vgn-bx Battery

Alienware deserves special recognition, if only for a bit of innovation unmatched elsewhere in the field. Its Graphics Amplifier hooks in through the back of the 17 R3, letting you add your own PCIe-based card to supersede the laptop’s GPU. Of course, the graphics card is purchased separately, and given the GeForce GTX 980M inside of the 17 R3, a GeForce GTX 980 Ti is really the only sensible step up, so add $650 to the laptop’s $3,300 price tag.In Unigine Valley and at 1920x1080, the upgrade yields 55%-higher average frame rates. In Metro Last Light, the jump is 42%. More important, stepping up to Nvidia’s fastest GPU makes it possible to game at the 17.3” panel’s native 3840x2160 resolution. We’re not sure that fact alone is worth a big price premium, particularly when you don’t get G-Sync support. But if you want a desktop replacement on the road and an even sweeter gaming experience when you get back home, Alienware’s 17 R3 is in a league of its own.Enthusiasts unwilling to compromise performance but still concerned about mobility should give Acer’s Predator 15 a look. It retains the potent GeForce GTX 980M with an ample 4GB of GDDR5, pairing it to a Core i7-6700HQ processor and 32GB of DDR4-2133 memory. The platform’s monster specs are rounded out by a 512GB Samsung SM951 SSD and 1TB HGST Travelstar—the most generously-sized storage subsystem in our round-up. Aesthetically, this is 100% a gaming notebook. Its W, A, S, D, and arrow keys sport red bezels; everything else is backlit in red; and the 10-key pad off to the right is backlit in blue. A gaming mode button next to the touchpad turns the control surface on and off, simultaneously toggling Windows key functionality. Its LED is green by default, so you end up with a somewhat discordant color scheme. More egregious is the Nvidia G-Sync monitor support sticker on the palm rest. The Predator’s 15.6” FHD panel isn’t G-Sync-capable. Rather, if you connect an external screen imbued with the technology to the DisplayPort output, G-Sync will work. Gotta be careful with that marketing…

Smaller still is Gigabyte’s P34W v5, which valiantly does battle against the Razer Blade. In many ways, the P34W v5 is actually a better platform. It benefits from a more modern Core i7-6700HQ processor, an NVMe-attached 128GB Samsung SSD plus a 1TB disk drive, and 16GB of DDR4 memory. You even get a USB 3.1 Type C port, three USB 3.0 ports, GbE, HDMI 2.0 out, and a card reader. And Gigabyte’s platform sells for $600 less, landing right around $1,800 for the configuration we reviewed. But its chassis isn’t as sturdy, you lose touch functionality, and the panel “only” offers QHD resolution (that’s sarcasm—2560x1440 is plenty, verging on retina-class pixel density from 16 inches away). We did discover that Nvidia’s own Game Ready notebook driver woouldn’t install, though. Updates need to come from Gigabyte instead. Lastly, the trackpad’s right- and left-click buttons are fashioned from a single piece of plastic that rocks on one side or the other. Varying travel across the buttons makes for an inconsistent experience.

Shave $500 off of the P34W v5’s price and you get Lenovo’s Y700 Touch. There are actually several different configurations ranging from $1,100 to $1,700, but our review unit lands at $1,300. It’s armed with a Core i7-6700HQ, GeForce GTX 960M, 16GB of DDR4 memory, a 128GB Samsung SSD, a 1TB hard drive, and a touch-enabled FHD display. Naturally, that GPU is the Y700’s biggest bottleneck, so don’t expect smooth frame rates in the latest titles at 1920x1080. Dial back the detail settings, though, and you should be able to strike a balance between performance and graphics quality. Outside of games, Lenovo’s Y700 Touch is an exceptional general-purpose machine. The 15.6” form factor and 2.88kg weight are mobile enough, while the red-backlit keyboard is a pleasure to type on. Lenovo’s fit and finish is consistently solid. And although there’s a bit of flex in the lid, you’d never guess that this is a value-oriented laptop by looking at it.

Many of the conclusions drawn in laptop reviews are subjective. They depend on a reviewer’s preferences, and it’s unavoidable that we’ll have differences in opinion. Wherever possible, though, we rely on benchmark data to evaluate the quantifiable aspects of performance.Each of the samples in this round-up was loaded with a gaming suite, including Unigine Valley, 3DMark, Metro Last Light, Tomb Raider, GRID 2, and Thief (all of which have a benchmark function). Each test runs three times, and their results are averaged. Plugged in to the wall, we disable G-Sync before generating frame rate data. Away from it, we leave Nvidia’s Battery Boost technology set to its default 30 FPS ceiling, if only to gauge whether a graphics system can maintain that frame rate.Our battery life test involves calibrating every notebook’s screen to 120 cd/m² brightness and running Unigine Valley at 1920x1080 in a loop until the power source is depleted. Each system is set to its Balanced power profile with sleep mode disabled.

Where necessary, the notebooks are also disassembled to confirm configuration and expansion options.Some online stores give us a small cut if you buy something through one of our links.

MSI’s latest Stealth Pro is their first slimline gaming laptop to use the new Maxwell-powered GTX 970M graphics card, and it makes this machine one of the fastest gaming machines I've ever balanced precariously on my lap. That I can even do that without melting through the flesh of my thighs is testament to the efficiency of Nvidia’s latest graphics technology and the cooling in MSI’s svelte 20mm thin laptop design.We’ve already seen MSI’s GT72 with the GTX 980M inside it producing some impressive gaming performance figures and, while the GS70’s GTX 970M is demonstrably slower than its (literally) bigger brother, this slimline machine can still be considered a gaming heavyweight.

The GTX 970M uses the same GM204 GPU as the GTX 980M, but has considerably fewer CUDA cores inside. The top-end chip comes with 1,536 cores versus the 970M’s 1,280 and it also has a sub-1GHz clockspeed. When you compare that to the desktop version, the GTX 970, the mobile part looks weaker still. The desktop chip has a full 1,664 CUDA cores, a 25% improvement over the mobile part.Nvidia is claiming its newest mobile Maxwell cards are capable of almost matching the performance of their desktop brethren—that’s quite an ask. It would require a completely linear performance scale to hit the touted 75% gaming speed they’ve been promising. Like the GT72 that Wes has been playing with, I’ve only seen performance figures from the GS70 that show the GTX 970M hitting between 65-70% of the gaming frame rates of the desktop equivalent of the card.That might make you think I was a little disappointed with the performance of this bright red MSI machine. But, considering it’s the fastest gaming notebook I’ve personally tested, that’s certainly not the case.

The GS70 is around 10-15% quicker than a competing Asus G750 with Nvidia’s top last-gen mobile graphics tech inside. That the second-tier mobile chip can top 30FPS in Metro: Last Light at its highest 1080p settings is excellent—the GTX 880M by comparison was languishing in the late 20s.Impressively it’s also quicker, and quieter, than the dual-GPU Aorus X7 v2 I recently tested. Granted, that machine is only using a pair of 860M GPUs, but it’s also essentially the same price as the GS70 and noticeably behind in gaming performance terms and overall spec.But straightline gaming performance isn’t the only benefit Nvidia are trying to achieve with the mobile Maxwell architecture. The second spin of its BatteryBoost tech wants to free you from the need for a mains connection when gaming on a laptop.Part of this is ensuring the manufacturers don’t hobble battery-based GPU performance, but there is also a new GeForce Experience (GFE) element. Maxwell’s efficiency means it can operate with lower energy demands (the 970M has a 75W TDP compared with 110W with the 870M) and that’s important when you suddenly only have 100W coming from the battery to power the entire system.

The GFE component is able to create a specific per-game settings profile, automatically applied once you’re unplugged. With a configurable maximum frame rate cap (set at 30FPS out of the box) the GPU will only use enough power to hit that level and waste no more. Sure, you’re not going to get the full power of your GPU, and lose some visual bells-and-whistles, but you’ll still be able to game away from the plug socket. For a while at least.The issue is that BatteryBoost still only delivers a small amount of extra gaming time. Using GRID 2 as a test I got just 42 mins of play time out of the GS70 at my standard settings. With BatteryBoost enabled that rose by only twenty minutes. What you get out of the new settings varies by game, and the GS70 did manage to push over the necessary one hour mark, but that doesn't deliver the freedom we need to not worry about always being plugged in.

The new Maxwell graphics card isn’t the only thing that sets the MSI GS70 apart, and I’m not talking about the shocking colour scheme. This is the peak of MSI’s Stealth Pro range. From the quad-core i7 CPU and mass of memory to the twin 256GB M.2 SSDs in RAID, it screams quality. The build quality is also excellent. There’s no give or rattle in the solid Steel Series backlit keyboard and, while I’m no fan of trackpads without discrete buttons, it’s as responsive as any I’ve used recently.It all comes at a price. This is the top-spec GS70, so you’re looking at a price of around $2,300 / £1,730. Whenever I test laptops like this I can’t help but think about the desktop I could build with that cash. You can pick up lower-end versions of MSI’s GS70 for a more reasonable price, however, still with that excellent build quality and, importantly, the GTX 970M.MSI have created a rather impressive, slimline high-end gaming machine in the GS70 2QE Stealth Pro, but it has done so with a high price tag to match. If you don’t want the heft of something like the bulky GT72, but still crave the gaming performance, then the GS70 is a great shout. But you might need to re-mortgage first.

MSI’s impressive GS70 is easily the quickest laptop we’ve tested so far, and it’s all down to the Maxwell-powered GTX 970M inside. The gaming performance is well in advance of the top Nvidia GPU of the last generation and is also able to offer improved battery life thanks to GFE too.Gaming laptops finally have the power to deliver great gaming experiences, and recent hardware advances like Intel's Skylake and Nvidia's GTX 980 (a desktop GPU now capable of running on notebooks) make this a good time to buy. But the endless variety of gaming laptop models makes shopping tough. We've spent months researching and testing them to sort out the best. Here they are.We've completely overhauled our best gaming laptops guide with three new models for 2016. Our new favorite is the descendant of last year's best gaming laptop. If you’re accustomed to seeing the most expensive product finishing in first place, our top choice is going to be a shocker. Asus’ G752VT-DH72 isn’t the quickest notebook in our round-up. Frankly, it’s not even the best-built. But it demonstrates a genius in component balance that’d be easy to overlook, if not for the seven other machines we’re comparing it to.
