Madness 50

Have me after careful consideration of this notebook zugelegt.Es is generally quite difficult to find in the category 13 in a powerful notebook. But what the Asus U36SD creates the day, is already more than convincing, which then justifies the slightly high price:

Positives:
++ Very powerful processor that can easily boost to 3.4 GHz without quick to overheat as the timeline in areas such as Acer series of case. Windows Experience Index (1.0 to 7.9) is very good 7.1.

++ SSD drive: This is my first computer with SSD and I think I will never be another no. One hears no sound real, the programs are all at once open (eg Word, or the power guzzling Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate). But what is topt fast boats. At the latest after twenty seconds, the part is fully powered up, and that too absolutely silently, since the processor at this time does not require refrigeration. When SSD is the way to an Intel 320, which is unfortunately nowhere indicated. Windows Experience Index 7.7

++ Design: Some may say the design does not matter in a notebook. But to whom the design at heart will have his joy here. Ultra thin, especially the display, can be quickly stowed in every backpack and is also very easy. Nevertheless, the keyboard is very comfortable to use.

++ Battery: So I was rather skeptical about the battery life of 10 hours. But they're really inside, unless one gambles or watch movies, etc. But even there should be seven hours easy inside. Is almost gespenstisch.Hab but always used the entertainment mode. In battery saving mode even more would have been inside.

+ Memory of 8GB lets nothing to be desired Windows Experience Index 7.4

Neutral:

Graphics chip: Here is an entry graphics card, but since this notebook is not really intended for gamers, this in no way surprised. My knowledge in this area are too low to assess this in more detail, but I think that even modern games will even if not played at the highest resolution can. Windows Experience Index 6.5

Display: The display is rather cursed in many test pages, but I have absolutely no problem with it. Of course, it reflects light, but also from the side is still very good thing to see. Has actually surprised me, even if a matte of course would be even better.

Negatives:

--In Delivery status crashes of Windows Explorer about every 10 minutes from out of nowhere, also annoying that unnecessarily installed by Asus software, so I would not recommend here for a new installation of Windows where we would be the same the next problem

--The Recovering data on the disk and must itself be burned. At every system startup you will be called here by an assistant. Well, but unfortunately no optical drive is installed and the wizard terminates immediately.
To this end, Asus also has specially created a partition that is unsichtabr in the workplace. Since you first get a very nice shock when suddenly what is around the 110 GB HDD capacity.

--For Reinstall I was because I was a student have free access to Win 7, luckily not rely on that OS iwie to bring the drive to a USB flash drive. Did Win 7 Professional 64 bit with SP1, and was able to really eliminate all the negative points. HDD has its full capacity, Windows Explorer no longer crashes. Would strongly recommend to any reinstallation !!!!!!!

Conclusion:

Especially the combination of design, performance and battery life are more than convincing. If this device to others instantly to anyone as you draw a lot of attention !!!!!
