I bought a model with i3 on board. Overall pleased to pick up a bit hard for the price comfortable komplektuhu. The most favorable option - DNS 2 weeks for the second campaign launched on the laptop, now the price of 30 thousand, while taking into account all bonuses 27. Took out, relying on the small size (first picked up the 13 "model, but then I saw this in the store to fit for . work filling all the necessary connectors are present, are fairly convenient to the minuses -. speakers directed downwards, are muted on a soft surface Although best laptop is not put on something soft -. the bottom right there is a cooling air is drawn If the laptop on your lap -. it air will also overlap, although this is a problem only when the heavy load on the system and still squeak Many complain about it -.. real laptop emits a squeak somewhere in the middle of the board is particularly audible sound in silence, when the fan is not spinning..

I put a memory bar in the laptop, an NVMe drive for the system, and a HDD for junk instead of an SSD. I installed Win10LTSC, the drivers almost all tightened themselves. Memory bar with built-in work in dual channel mode. Overall satisfied.

You can easily get to the insides - just unscrew the screws in the back cover (10pcs), under the additional piece of iron on 3 screws - memory, WiFi, PCIe and a processor. Whoever has a discrete video card will be there too =) No hidden screws, you can also change the thermal paste or clean the radiator without any problems. I like it.

The battery may well hold for 7 or more hours. For three hours of browsing the web with parallel work in Excel, the charge fell by 40%. I don’t know if this is a good indicator in 2019 - before that I used an old netbook, the battery of which initially lasted 3-4 hours on the Internet.
A useful trifle: with a charge of less than 20%, the power indicator turns orange - you immediately notice that the battery sits down if the full-screen application is running at that time.

I do not understand why manufacturers in 13 "and 14" shoved 1920x1080? You have to use scaling, which is an extra hemorrhoid in old programs. I think 1900x600 here would be just right. 1366x768 is not enough - I used 11.6 "so. By the way, the scale of the store was 150%, changed by 125%

i3-8130U and integrated graphics is enough for undemanding games. I tested it in CSGO - at 1280x720, with a minimum salary and with bots on a small map it gives out about 70-80 fps. If you really want, you can)

Calhoon Congratulations on your purchase: drinks:. I also look at 330s ... only 15-inch. There is an old Asus on 14 "with HD resolution, I saw in M.video 330s 14" with AMD-process ... I liked the touchpad, the finger slides well, the model is pleasant in general.
I just think i5 8250U 1.6GHz, 8GB, 128GB SSD to take ... 1000 difference between it and i3 8130U 2.2GHz, 4GB, 1000GB, 128GB SSD ... there is no backlight and no HDD, but 8 GB of RAM at once.

xXx-ray, The DNS model with i3 was cheaper than other stores. I have enough for work, I didn’t want to lay a big budget. In the DNS, he is now generally worth 30, the share is the second week

Good afternoon. Also I bought this model, like totally. But there is one thing - an adaptive brightness control. Because we put only the driver from the manufacturer (standard with intel support for uhd 620 is not installed, and sends to the manufacturer) is not present bar intel hd graphics. How to disable the adaptive backlight do not know, annoying awful, on a dark background diminishes, on a light adds brightness. In the setting of the power plan is also no point adaptive lighting. Does anyone have any thoughts? It may have solved the problem?

kilyak, look for this adaptability in services and disconnect.

Try these patches
intel_panel_to_context_menu.rar(370 bytes)

intel_panel_to_system_tray.rar(603 bytes)

kilyak, this is the so-called "display energy saving technology."
Turns off in the control panel ->Intel graphics settings, or a similar menu item by right-clicking on the desktop.
In the factory system, this item was, in the new installed system, there is also

Yes, and the driver is installed normally

Tell me, please, where did the driver come from? At me LSB one single and all shakes. Development date 08/27/2018. There is a Windows application Intel HD Graphics Control panel, but there is an error at startup - check the driver and try again.

By replacing the driver in the device manager, the latest Intel driver is installed on any laptop without any problems, and the control panel has now migrated to the store, because Microsoft made Stewood make it in the form of UWP, it began in November. Well, or try the above patches.

Calhoon , tell me, that is, you can not simultaneously install ssd and hdd in the laptop?

noliker, possible, but SSD needs formatNVMeM2. SATA in laptop one.
I set it up - a regular SSD will now go to the desktop computer)

I bought it in dns, now I'm looking for 8GB so-dimm ddr4. On soldered timing CL14 10-10-10-14. Which is better to choose so as not to underestimate performance? Interested in as always the name and approximate price

mmbugs watched the timings under load? I showed 17-17-17-39, I took the corresponding in terms of parameters in the same dns for points from buying a laptop

Fit this unit on NG! Everything pleases EXCEPT the speed of downloading files from torrents and a cloud-3 GB for about 1h40 downloads. The torrent client installed from the Windows store, and from the bit torrent site, both of them download the same dick. I cling to the same router asusovskiy old netbook 2012, downloads all the same for 25-30min .....

Teftelkin,
I keep a hundredth stable. this is the maximum of my tariff. Everything sways fast. Those firewood that were put automatically with a dozen. You can also try to go to Power Options - Configure the power plan - Change additional power settings - Wireless adapter settings - Power saving mode - Set maximum performance both on the mains and on the battery

1) Internet speed


2) network download speed

Thanks for the advice. He brought everything to the maximum speed in the settings of the wireless network adapter, it's still there. By downloading a maximum of 480kb / s return of 0.9KB / s ...... such things

It's good to be stupid))))) After setting the maximum speed, I forgot to reboot, now all the rules, the speed went right!
HardFreim-Respect and Respect for advice.

Here is a small video about the laptop shot, maybe someone will be interested :)
