LK. Posted September 17, 2005 Share Posted September 17, 2005 Posted on Sat, 17 Sep 2005 08:25:56 CDT We now know that HP notebook designers lack the enthusiasm for gaming (or perhaps they couldn't figure out a way to cool down high-end GPUs without frying HP's reputation). Anyway, PCMag has a review of the HP Pavilion dv4000, which isn't a totally new notebook to those who followed the market. The interesting thing with the review unit is the dedicated ATI Mobility X700 128MB (without the lame Hyper-memory technology). That's a big leap from the integrated graphics. Also encouraging is that the X700 rivals the performance of the same GPU on a $2,100 Acer Ferrari 4000. Additionally, you get both ExpressCard 34/54 and PCMCIA Type II slot; such combination is a novelty. There are four USB 2.0 ports, which is one more than what you see on similar 15.4" lappy. The dv4000 comes with a remote too. All these carry a price tag of $1,449. http://www.i4u.com/article4205.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
