Rep: (75)
It was necessary to buy a laptop for home, mainly for printing and to be able to display video, but large enough. In general, the task was difficult, given the budget framework of 10000r, and the choice between there was a difficult one between amd e series and intel celeron. But since I already have a computer with a sandy bridge, and I especially liked the hd3000 video accelerator, which seems to be not very warming up. Well, and probably in favor of buying this particular laptop, its staffing with peripheral devices, such as usb 3.0 (including 2 pcs.) And hdmi, as well as stereo speakers, almost all beeches for this price, has one speaker.

The main advantage as it seemed to me when buying this is just the limit of the case, in other reviews they wrote that you can even get to the processor simply by removing the back cover, alas, it is not that you need to disassemble the thermal paste. But the g580 turned out to be much stronger and less bend under load, which is already good when carrying, say when it is taken with one hand. I was pleased that the design of the hinges was even more compared to the 560/570 series; now they seem to be stronger, there is no feeling that the cover will fly off the root. With all the ease of opening the lid, opening the lid at the beginning, then in the middle it opens already harder, but on my specimen it can lean more at a small beech movement, very unpleasant. When you close the lid, it goes very down and slaps, it seems that the screen may crack. The design of course, like all lenovo, is very boring and the principle is the same as two or three years ago, except it can be noted that it is very thick for its filling and has a lot of free space. By the way, his weight was pleasantly pleased, not much different from netbooks with a similar screen size, but like the power supply, which is generally weightless for me. Well, the main disadvantage of any manufacturer is that only the lower part of the lid is matte, the rest is glossy, apparently the Chinese think that gloss gives steepness and high prices, I have long noticed this among many manufacturers.

According to technical performance, it is difficult to say something, you can immediately say that the drive was set to the one that I saw only in the 90s, when reading a disk it vibrates wildly and makes a lot of noise, writes double-layer discs. The processor warms up to a maximum of 50 degrees in non-resource-intensive applications, while the cooler does not make noise, in general, the heating mode is similar to my i5 sandy bridge processor. The touchpad recognizes several movements, the scrolling is not very well implemented, with the finger on the edge of the touchpad. In the second slot I immediately delivered 4GB of RAM, I worked for a little more than an hour from factory charging, I lived with installed Windows and 4 hours with active use, which is not bad for a budget laptop.

I haven’t done tests in games yet, I don’t even know what to check.

Photos will be later.

RC_Gremlin, And how about a laptop with noise? What is the cost of a Wi-Fi adapter?



Rep: (2)
I will join the discussion a little off topic: I have a Z580. About Lenovo, I can say that the quality is very good, it is in the top 5 selling laptops among HP, DELL, ASUS, ACER. The design is very to taste, especially white. The disk was divided into C with a volume of 420 GB and D with a volume of 26 GB on which there were setups of firewood and stock programs. And now the question: It was Win7 HB moved to Ultimate, but to the D drive (throwing the firewood in C and formatting). Is it possible to pull out the media button control interface from HB? It was just that Pts was convenient (a window popped up, for example, when you click Fn + F5, a window opens with the choice of what to include: WiFi or BT) in the new Windows, this is not there, maybe you need a thread to install software from lenovo?

Intellectual fan, noise control
This is from the sticker, and by experience in games it does not make much noise even at high temperatures (i3 2300 MHz, Intel HD 3000 + Nvidia 630m)

It works very quietly, the noise level at 60 degrees rises a little, but you need to try to warm it up. wi fi atheros adapter with n protocol support.

That's just what I did not notice.) Stupidly high speed at a certain temperature.

And now the question: It was Win7 HB rearranged to ultimate, but to the D drive (after first throwing off the firewood in C and formatting it). Is it possible to pull out the media button control interface from HB? It was just that Pts was convenient (a window popped up, for example, when you click Fn + F5, a window opens with the choice of what to include: WiFi or BT) in the new Windows, this is not there, maybe you need a thread to install software from lenovo?

I don’t know, I didn’t have this on the disk with firewood, no auxiliary prog, pure firewood, I updated everything else through the driver genius.

It should probably be added that the matrix is ​​better than in hp 6b54er, the viewing angles delight, and especially horizontally, but the colors and brightness are weak, the pixels are the same. The quality of the speakers is nothing special, but loud enough to watch a movie on a laptop in order to arrange it on my own at 3 meters.

About the matrix, but I'm probably not in the topic. I have another laptop. Viewing angles in comparison with the HP ProBook 4530s are simply gorgeous, even the glossy screen does not glare strongly. And I have the speakers "Dolby Home Theater", if you have the same, the sound quality is very good + speaker panels in the full length of the laptop. By the way realtek

It seems to be stated on the case, but there are only two of them, although quite large ones.

In this new Windows there is no, maybe you need to install a thread from Lenovo to create an interface?

When I bought, there were disks with firewood and Windows. When the installed Windows was demolished, it delivered software from the manufacturer (lenovo g560). You can also swing firewood from the lenovo website

Lord I also bought this model in Yulmart in Vladimir for 10650 riders — quite pleased with the device for such money! Preloaded W7HB, quite a lot of programs from Lenovo. I think the model justifies the means, it works perfectly silently! WiFi suite!

Rep: (75)
So I installed windows 8, the laptop began to work even faster, usb 3.0 is more secure. Video subsystem more brightly, the main difference is noticeable in loading time. There were no problems, mine did not even install firewood from the Lenovo website, downloaded from the driver genius and through the update center in Windows.

TestedCounter Strike: Source
The Steam version of the game, the last one to date, has 4 GB of memory added to the laptop, it costs windows 8 enterprise x64.

Maximum settings in the built-in benchmark:
Attached Image

All the settings are unscrewed to the maximum, it is quite possible to play, but sometimes there are jerks, it is not completely bad for a beech, which is sold at a netbook price and does not heat up and does not make noise.

Same settings, but anti-aliasing is disabled and anisotropic filtering is reduced to 2x:

Here, as a strange picture twitched and clearly sags the number of frames

Turned off anisatropic filtering to trilinear and turned off buffering:
Attached Image

Now more than playable, there is a margin for anisotropic filtering and smoothing. The picture goes very smoothly.

Counter Strike: Go
Then I didn’t tease the game and the computer, turned on the game with bots and tested on the config with all the low and high textures.
Attached Image

The game runs fast, a drop in frames below 35 and lag bali are noticed only when a bunch of bots came out of the opposing team (6 people).

I did not see the difference, I concluded that the main problem is our artificially slowed down processor, it can turn out what to do with it in the future.

Also suggest that you can test further, there is still l4d, l4d2, splinter cell conviction, metro 2033, serios sam 3.

That's what I saw first in the game, I think those who played on a more powerful PC, the game was remembered differently, but on the box there is a picture for a word of similar quality.

In general, the number of frames from 30 to 50 pleases.

In general, it is clear from the built-in counter what kind of fps in the loaded moments of the game, but nevertheless you can play more or less calmly. Not too bad for a typewriter I did not expect, five years ago Intel had integrated graphics much worse.

My advice to those who want to play a bit is to add 2000-3000r and buy a laptop either with the same processor or with a built-in video discrete video, the result will be much better compared with geforce 610 and 520 (one chip) at work. While hd 4000, what is in the processor I5 and i7 will have the same results or even the geforce 630.

For more impressive results due to the features of the embedded video, I recommend to buy two fast and 4GB modules, this will be enough for the next 3 years. I have two of them, but they are different and at the same time they are asymmetrical, which slightly lowers the speed and adds lag (the same situation was on the older processor).

Good day!
Three months ago I bought a G580 with a 630 card, 4 meters of memory, 2.5 Gigahertz, without a system, on a mountain. Sam put Win-7 Ultimate 64 and added the bar to 4 meters Samsung. Everything fell without problems. Well, he hesitated me 5-7 times a day on the BSOD throw out! :-( The most annoying is that there is no systematics, every time a new mistake. It may fall out during the game, or maybe during operation, or maybe even during idle time ... Firewood is fresh EVERYTHING except BIOS - I don’t know how to update it There is no conflict, no viruses, there is a great desire to get a sledgehammer. :-(
Help not to make a crash test ... Mozh, that missed where?
PS: In general, the model is not thrilled, not to say cooler - before this was Toshiba Satellite, it worked for 5 years without problems until it was drowned. And I was looking for a replacement for Toshiba, but it was not available ... :-(
