1 / The benefits:
HMDI port allows him to watch on television in widescreen movies in Streaming: a little more enjoyable.
Its 2 USB 3.0 ports allow transfer rates of high-speed data, much better than lUSB 2.0 (almost 10 times faster). The USB 3.0 ports read very well the keys USB 2.0 and 1.1 backward compatibility is total.
Note: lUSB 3.0 introduces the top speed mode (Super-Speed), which theoretically delivers 625 MB / s4. But using this new method of encoding data type 8b / 10b, the actual transfer speed is only 500 MB / s. USB 3 delivers an electrical output of 4.5 watts.
2 A USB port is also available on the opposite side to the 2 USB 3.0. It serves me to charge my smartphone because it delivers 5V needed for this.
It is configured to search alone for wireless router, you'll just have to save your uap Wifi code and you'll have it. However, for those who do not have the WiFi, an RJ45 Ethernet port is provided. This port can also connect the hub with an Ethernet port to operate your devices sil is required.
A 3.5mm audio jack is waiting for your headphones to listen without disturbing your neighbors. The two built-in speakers do not require dadjonction dun external speaker.
The CD / DVD drive is also a writer: always useful to make copies
An SD memory card reader adjacent to the 2 USB 3.0 ports so that you can unload images from your camera or your camera.
2 / At the start of the computer
Once lit, just follow the instructions on the screen: nothing complicated, this is affordable to all. Just be a little careful because the manufacturer has installed some software applications, IN FINE, are priced. Simply refuse their installation since you can choose or refuse daccepter without harming the rest of the installation. We also ask you to create a Microsoft account, and here, this is essential. Microsoft's current policy is to retain its users with an account House which gives the possibility of restoring the system to the Microsoft service, Clefs system recovery if needed, recovery of your licenses, etc. This is free and easy to do and it can be very useful in case of big problems with your PC. The system then installs Google Chrome almost automatically: we see him appear without washing asked! Personally I prefer Firefox seems faster to me, but everyone will choose according to their tastes.
3 / Installed software
The HP Pavilion 17.3 "has own motion, like many Pc, the famous McAfee LiveSafe (free trial version for 30 days) that everyone wants to impose on us. This is the first thing i uninstalled! Him much preferring my antivirus usual that satisfies me fully for years. It also has to Avast! SecureLine VPN (1 month subscription) that is rapidly remove because it is not used much
Gaming applications are present, some pay, others not. You decide what you want to keep.
Windows 8.1 has the annoying habit of wanting that you download from their platform associated with Google play, where many applications are priced. However, nothing prevents you to download a program from where you want it, then install it on your computer does not pass through the Microsoft-Google consortium!
When buying the computer does not have Microsoft Office, there is just a small reader / text editor (for biting me the node) and a phony spreadsheet. You will need to buy software to work really drinking.
The HP printing software installed does not support all the models of printers, load your printer software for more safety.
4 / Features
Bluetooth allows you to transfer your photos from a smartphone, to send sound to an external Bluetooth speakerphone, read SD card reader when you have a Bluetooth interface card: in short, a handy gadget, sometimes
By clicking at the bottom of the screen to the left on the small down arrow in the Microsoft implementation of the PC page, Phew! Anyway Windows 8.1 works like this: you will find all the little quite useful applications, Cam, Skype, calculator, Etc.
5 / His technique
Its internal SATA hard drive type * can process your data and transfer them at high speed.
* Explanations
Serial ATA (also called SATA) has many advantages over its predecessor, the three largest being its speed, cable management and hot-plug (Hot-Plug). The old standard ATA is commonly referred to as the "Parallel ATA" (P-ATA) so that the two are not confused.
Early models of Serial ATA, which occurred in 2003 allows a maximum throughput of 1.5 Gbit / s, but were designed to go much faster. Serial ATA II Doubles speed 3Gb / s and SATA III 6Gb / s appeared in 2009.
The theoretical throughput of 1.5 Gbit / s corresponds to 187.5 MB / s; in practice, it does not exceed the 150 MB / s, which is only 17 MB / s higher than the fastest Parallel ATA: ATA / 133. However this is not the main advantage of SATA over PATA, indeed:
POWA is likely to share the same table of data with another device (the famous master-slave), which potentially reduces bandwidth by 50% each;
The "web interface" SATA is much easier to use, and place, as the PATA because of its small size.
Parallel buses now have difficulties in increasing their rates because of a data line synchronization problem. Serial ATA uses the new LVDS (Low Voltage Differential Signaling) for signaling.
6 / Conclusion
In summary, this is a good laptop PC with a large screen, a convenient keyboard with sensitive keys and low noise. It has lots of options for ultra-fast data transfer, it is at the forefront of current technology. A computer which I am happy, allowing me to transfer videos without waiting for ages before my screen which are loaded onto YouTube or Dailymotion.
