Dell XPS M1730 Review

As I mentioned in the review of the rather awkwardly named Rock X770 T7800-8800, there are always going to be people that don't see the point of the gaming notebook. In that instance the Rock was the perfect tonic, thanks largely to the GeForce 8800M GTX - the first DX10 mobile solution worth the name. However, today I'm looking at a notebook that would doubtless confirm to those sceptics that they were right all along.
On paper, at least, the Dell XPS M1730 ought to be a great gaming machine. As standard it comes equipped with two 256MB GeForce 8700M GTs running in SLI as well as the "World's First" mobile Ageia PhysX chip, which is intended to provide independent physics acceleration for gaming. It has a 17in, 1,920 x 1,200 display, is available in a variety of colours and a bit like a Christmas tree, or the front of a house (depending on your locale), it's adorned with various bits of colourful lighting. So, what's the problem?Well, to set the ball rolling it doesn't help that various quarters have hyped the machine to a level that's completely unwarranted. Claims such as the ability to play a game like Crysis at "full resolution" and "with ease" aren't so much ridiculous, but laugh out loud hilarious when you consider that even far more powerful desktop systems struggle. Throw in a few arbitrary numbers from 3DMark06 and it's a recipe for a lot of misleading headlines, which does nobody any good at all.

The Dell XPS M1730 is truly a gamers laptop and for a true gamer only. Our review can actually end here, but it won't.

If you have all the money in this world, you can perhaps buy Dell XPS M1730. For a hefty price tag, Dell has genuinely filled this model to the top with fabulous features.

Starting with the Dual SLI graphics, NVIDIA's exclusive system for multi-GPU solutions resulting in faster rendering of graphics, with this machine you are able to take any of the latest games by their horns. The strong gaming score that Dell XPS M1730 battery has achieved, on Quake and F.E.A.R for example, as verified by majority of the online review websites, speaks for itself.

Gaming experience is also enhanced with a built-in 10-key pad allowing you to use your normal in-game configuration. Dell has also taken the first step to integrate Logitech's GamePanel LCD in a notebook. It's positioned just above the keyboard and presents essential information for the gamer.

The LCD screen it comes with is meant for games. It's a 17" UltraSharp Widescreen UXGA offering lower refresh rates for less ghosting, and bright vivid colors with a high resolution. If you take this laptop to LAN parties, it certainly will stand out amongst the other computers with its backlit keyboard.

The screen itself offers a high-definition 1920x1200 resolution and the speakers are phenomenal, though a little more bass would be nice. Despite all of the features we have seen in this machine that weren't expected, there are a few features we did expect that aren't included. For instance, a lot of powerful notebooks like the HP Pavilion HDX9003TX and the ASUS G2S have HDMI ports included, and we've even seen a trend towards e-SATA ports in the latest releases. It seems a shame to not include these in such a powerful unit.

As well as some media controls, the XPS M1730 has Dell MediaDirect, a media centre-type software, which can be run prior to launching the operating system. The main advantage is the ability to watch movies, listen to music or view photos within a few seconds of hitting the MediaDirect button, rather than having to wait for Windows to load.

Naturally in the benchmarks we saw good scores, particularly in the gaming tests. In WorldBench 6 the Dell XPS M1730 scored 85, a very nice score, though not quite as good as Dell's own XPS M1330 notebook. In 3DMark 2006 it scored a very powerful 8033, more than enough to run most current games to run with medium to high quality settings. 3DMark 2001 SE got blitzed by a score of 27,792.

In the encoding test it also did well, achieving scores that are beginning to show notebook CPUs are comparable to desktop CPUs. Using iTunes to encode 53 minutes worth of WAV files to 192Kbps MP3 files took just 75 seconds and in Cdex (which uses only one core of the CPU) it took 110 seconds.

Battery test results weren't all that impressive. In our DVD rundown test, where we loop a DVD until the xps m1730 battery drains, the XPS M1730 lasted only 69 minutes. However, it's clear this desktop replacement is not designed for long term battery use, so it isn't a huge flaw.

Review of HP Pavilion DV6000 Series

HP's Pavilion dv6000 series of laptop computers are geared towards multimedia enthusiasts who don't want to sacrifice performance away from their desktop. Available with Intel Core 2 Duo processors, this laptop family offers excellent power in a reasonably-priced package.

Hewlett Packard is one of the most prominent manufacturers of notebook computers today, and any trip to Best Buy will make that abundantly clear. Well, as of this writing, one of the notebook PCs they have on sale right now at Best Buy is the HP Pavilion DV6000. I picked one up a couple months ago for $800. I was in Best Buy a couple weeks ago and it was on sale for $749. So, this is certainly an affordable notebook PC. So, how does it perform in everyday use? Let’s check it out.

The Pavilion ships with an Intel Core 2 Duo, with processing cores on a single chip, so they're great for multitasking and handling intensive tasks. They're both 64-bit processors, so they're well-suited for the Windows Vista Home Premium operating system installed on these laptop computers. HP packs these laptop computers with a healthy 1GB of DDR2 memory, enough to run Vista without stuttering.

The Specs
In my eyes, the DV6000 series battery is proof that PCs are affordable as hell today. These specs compare quite favorably to my desktop, all in a sub $800 notebook.
AMD Turion 64, dual core processor
2 GB DDR2 memory
15.4″ WXGA High-Definition HP BrightView Widescreen Display (1280 x 800)
256MB NVIDIA(R) GeForce(R) Go 7200
160GB 5400RPM SATA Hard Drive
LightScribe SuperMulti 8X DVD+/-RW with Double Layer Support
1.3 Megapixel Webcam with mic built into screen
Altec Lansing speakers built in
3 USB ports, ExpressCard/54 Slot, Video Out, Integrated Consumer IR, 1 RJ-11, 1 RJ-45
Windows Vista Home Premium
Now, when you look at this unit on HP’s website, you will see there are different spec configurations for this model. The above happens to be what I have in the unit I am typing this review on.

There's a built-in Webcam and microphone for videoconferencing and Web chatting without the need for any additional hp compaq business notebook 6910p battery equipment. And the 15.4-inch widescreen display delivers a large and sharp image for watching movies or having multiple applications open in tiered view. There's even a remote control that lets you control movie watching or music listening from a distance--and it fits snugly into the Express Card/54 slot when you're on the go.

While I have not had the wireless problems many have been complaining about in the comments, I have had another problem - the battery (maybe). The battery seems to not accept a charge anymore, and Windows says “plugged in, not charging” when I hover over the battery icon in the taskbar. So, HP is currently sending me a new hp pavilion dv600 series battery and we’ll see if that fixes it. I guess this is the kind of thing you deal with when you buy cheap notebook computers.

As with most laptop computers, the integrated graphics share video memory with the main system RAM, so these portables won't be the best gaming machines. The AMD models offer NVIDIA GeForce GO 6150 graphics over Intel graphics, so you'll get some gaming performance boost, but video memory is still shared. In addition to a modem and network interface, these laptop computers feature 802.11b/g wireless so you'll be able to find an Internet connection almost anywhere.

At just over six pounds, these laptop computers are more desktop replacement than ultimate portables, but most users will feel the performance benefits outweigh those extra couple of pounds. If you're looking for great multimedia performance in a moderately priced laptop, the HP Pavilion dv6000 series battery is a nicely rounded mainstream portable computer.

What is the difference between Ni-Cd, Ni-MH and Lithium Ion batteries?

Batteries in portable consumer devices such as a laptop, camcorder, and cellular phone, etc., are typically made using either Nickel Cadmium (Ni-Cd), Nickel Metal Hydride (Ni-MH) or Lithium Ion (Li-ion) battery cell chemistry. Each type of rechargeable dell latitude d500 series battery chemistry has its own unique characteristics:

Ni-Cd and Ni-MH:
The main difference between the two is that Ni-MH battery (the newer technology of the two) offers higher energy density than Ni-Cds. In other words, the capacity of a Ni-MH is approximately twice the capacity of its Ni-Cd counterpart. What this means for you is increased run-time from the hp pavilion dv9000 series battery with no additional bulk or weight. Ni-MH also offers another major advantage: Ni-Cd batteries tend to suffer from what is called the "memory effect". Ni-MH batteries are less prone to this problem and thus require less maintenance and conditioning. Ni-MH batteries are also more environmentally friendly than Ni-Cd batteries since they do not contain heavy metals (which present serious landfill problems). Note: Not all devices can accept both Ni-Cd and Ni-MH batteries.

Lithium Ion
Lithium-Ion (Li-ion) has become the new standard for portable power in consumer devices. Li-ion battery produces the same energy as Ni-MH battery but weighs approximately 20%-35% less. This can make a noticeable difference in devices such as cellular phones, camcorders or notebook computers where the acer aspire 3000 battery makes up a significant portion of the total weight. Another reason Li-ion batteries have become so popular is that they do not suffer from the "memory effect" at all. They are also environmentally friendly because they don't contain toxic materials such as Cadmium or Mercury.

HP Pavilion ZX5000/ZV5000/ZD8000 Review

The HP Pavilion zv5000 includes Harmon Kardon speakers, a 3.5 hour battery, a 5 in 1 card reader, and a slew of software applications. Unfortunately the machine only comes with a NVIDIA GeForce4 440Go GPU so it won’t be up to snuff for hard core gamers.

The HP Pavilion zv5000 series battery notebook is intuitive and easy to use, offering versatile mobility that lets you integrate audio, photography, video, and the Internet for the ultimate in personal entertainment. With the fastest Intel processors, wired or wireless connectivity, and entertainment software, you can easily and quickly create, access, and share photos, movies, and music with your friends and family. With a premium on value, the HP Pavilion zv5000 is loaded with features for rich multimedia. You can select a 5-in-1 digital media card reader for transferring files from other devices quickly and easily to your notebook. Plus you get HP Image Zone software for organizing, editing, sharing, printing, and storing photos and video clips. The zv5000t notebook PC features great contrast, sharp images, and true color via the ATI MOBILITY RADEON 9000 4X IGP graphics with 64MB of shared video memory. Pavilion zv5000 notebook systems offer high-quality, integrated, 16-bit Sound Blaster Pro-compatible audio, Harman/Kardon integrated speakers, and an optional widescreen display option. Equip your zv5000 notebook PC comes with a DVD/CD-RW combo drive and you'll have everything you need to watch movies, record music, download photos, or surf the internet. For a little more, upgrade to record movies or connect wirelessly. The pavilion zv500 battery includes several ports: three for USB 2.0, one for FireWire (IEEE 1394), and one for S-Video TV out, and an expansion port for the new HP notebook expansion base (sold separately), which lets you connect your peripherals with one cable, elevates your display to eye level, and includes a wireless keyboard and mouse.

Specifications:

• Processor: Pentium 4 3.0GHz with hyper-threading technology
• RAM: 512MB shared
• Video Memory: 128 shared
• Video Card: ATI Mobility Radeon 9000
• Display: 15.4 WXGA widescreen (1280 x 800)
• Hard Drive: 60GB EIDE 4200RPM
• Optical Drive: CD-RW/DVD-ROM Combo
• Networking: Built-in LAN and Modem
• Wireless: Built-in 802.11g
• Battery: Lithium Ion
• Audio: Built-in harman/kardon speakers with 16-bit Sound Blaster Pro-compatible card
• Peripheral Connections: 3 USB 2.0, 1 IEEE 1394 (FireWire), 1 PCMCIA, 5-in-1 Digital Media (support for Secure Digital, MultiMediaCard, Memory Stick, Memory Stick PRO and SmartMedia)
• Weight: 7.9lbs
• Dimensions: 14.3” long, 11.6” wide, 1.8” height

First, it's not a lightweight - pretty close to 8 pounds all by itself. I'm guessing that the bag with all the accessories I carry around with it comes in at close to 12 to 15 pounds.

The monitor is very responsive and gives good DVD playback display. I've noticed that it is not quite as bright as my ViewSonic VP-series monitors I have hooked up to my hp pavilion zv5000 series laptops, and the white desktop background isn't quite white. You don't notice this unless you have it set up next to another display, so I wouldn't call this a bad thing, just an observation.

The volume of the speakers leaves something to be desired, though. I consider it pretty low even at maximum settings. It does have a plug for headset speakers and that might be a better deal, especially when using it in public places. I haven't connected it up to external speakers, so I can't comment on that setup.

Connections abound. There are 3 separate USB connectors and HP sells a powered USB extender to turn any one of those into four with their own power to connect power-needy USB devices to.

If you can't get connected with this machine, you are in pretty bad shape. It comes with 56K dial-up connector, 10/100 NIC and it's WiFi ready.

With the AMD 3700+ 64-bit processor and 1 GB RAM (2 GB is max), performance is outstanding. It is one of the fastest machines I have, being noticeably faster than either of my AMD 3200+ desktops, and just about even with my Opteron 150 based system. It's just damned quick.

Being a bit of a speed freak when it comes to CPUs, the reason I went with the AMD 3700+ was two-fold: #1 it is 64-bit ready, and #2 the fastest Intel offered on this line at the present time is a 3.2GH P4. I believe the 3700+ definitely outperforms the ranking available Intel CPU for this line.

Quality of workmanship appears to be good. I haven't noticed any flaws or misalignment or anything. It also has a full-length piano type hinge which should add to the life of that part of it.

The extras: I need to say something about the expansion base I got. There are two types, I went with the less expensive. It connects to the computer through a single connector and provides its own USB ports, and its own NIC/56Kb connections. This frees up the 3 USB connectors on the laptop itself for your use. It also comes with a wireless keyboard and mouse hookup which is a nice convenience.

I've never owned any other laptop, and it's been some years since I used one regularly (a company furnished Dell). But after about a month of ownership and use, I'm very pleased with it and would recommend it to anyone looking for a full featured laptop with a larger screen for "multi-media" use and possibly even gaming.

Since it has the power to run serious applications like MS Office Pro and Adobe's Creative Suite, there's no reason to shy away from it as a true workhorse either.
