subject: 3d Notebook Lenovo Y560d Review [print this page] 2010 is recognized as "3D" year, since "Avatar" 3D film released with great success, plus the already-concluded CES (International Consumer Electronics Show), 3D technology, have become the biggest focus. Following the launch of Lenovo Y460 has been constantly upgrading the machine to update the hardware configuration, the final "small Y" of the "fellow comrades", but also a larger size than the Y460 with AMD TriDef 3D display technology, Lenovo Y560D debut. Although not the end of metamorphosis using Y560D naked eye 3D technology, but the use of polarized light technology plus a special design of the display screen, Lenovo Y560D still gives us a "dizzy" feeling. We further ado, the "big Y" in the end what unique skills, hear me speak to you carefully.
Everywhere sturdy technology to upgrade again
The reason why Y560 added a D for a reason. The difference is that with an ordinary piece of screen, the screen refresh rate up to 120Hz, do not underestimate the screen refresh rate, polarized 3D display technology, the essence of all this. Use two-60Hz screen refresh rate, the one displayed on the screen we can not detect with the naked eye the two parts, in the absence of 3D polarized glasses, we can only see the image ghosting, blurred vision, right, do not worry, The 3D glasses turn comes into play.
Take care to wear glasses users, Lenovo Y560D with a 3D glasses at the same time, the other comes with a pair of glasses can be caught in the clips, easy to wear with their own myopia users. Next, how to put this into a 3D display ghosting effect, a game of polarized glasses. In other words you buy 3D notebook, even support 3D graphics support effects, without glasses case, it is as tasteless general.
Pair of 3D glasses with special polarized 3D display display screen, not the kind of cost is relatively low display red and green 3D glasses are not ideal can match. 3D glasses have been specially designed with a refresh rate of 120Hz screen, change the visual focal point, so we judge that the wrong image from the screen to reach another level, 3D effects from this show.
The above said, in order to achieve realistic 3D effect, in addition to 120Hz screen refresh rate to achieve, the requirements for the graphics card is also demanding. This requires support for 3D graphics in addition to Microsoft's latest DirectX11 technology, also requires its own independent 3D chip, and all operations on 3D graphics will rely on it, and help reduce the processor's computing strength. The combination can make parallel programming easier, but also has high-level shader language fully mature, more attractive to the eyes of game developers, these are the ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5000 series graphics cards advantages.
Although equipped with the latest 3D technology, but in their original display screen but not much on the upgrade. Lenovo Y560D 15.6-inch LED backlit screen, 16:9 popular cutting process, a resolution of 1366 768. Here we will be large-scale stand-alone game to test how strong Y560D performance in the end.
Beginning on the big game for entertainment and easy to deal with health
Lenovo Y series notebooks since the market, then to the identity of this game has won the support of many young people. Y560D is no exception. Lenovo Y560D equipped with ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5730 graphics card, graphics card in a notebook in today's high-end position.
Lenovo Y560D end the series with a positioning ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5730 graphics card, which uses 40nm technology package, with 400 stream processors, while reducing power consumption while ensuring no loss of performance. In the 1024 768 maximum resolution with the case, 3Dmark06 test scores were 8210 and 7545,3 D performance is very good.
i3 processor performance, easy to deal with average daily use
Lenovo Y560D equipped with Intel i3 350M processor with 2.27GHz clock speed, does not support Turbo technology, 3MB level three cache, dual nuclear power plant thread. May not carry i5 or i7 processor will make some people disappointed, but in this era of excess CPU performance, who truly exhausted all of the CPU performance? Moreover, Y560D high cost we all know, is obvious. And the corresponding CPU GPU, ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5730 discrete graphics with 1GB of memory, 128-bit bandwidth, memory frequency 800MHz, the number of transistors up to 627M, support for Microsoft DirectX11, the specific performance of the detailed data we presented to you.
As the actual installation of our daily SYSmark 2007 most of the software can be used to run realistic simulation applications (word processing pictures, video playback, 3D performance, etc.), it tests the accuracy of the overall performance was recognized by the industry. From the above chart we can see that as i3 processor performance is relatively low, so the processing efficiency more generally, a score of 106. But the good GPU to make up for the weaknesses of the CPU, 3D performance and video processing capabilities of the score reached 140 or more. Overall, Lenovo Y560D performed well.
Lenovo Y560D is equipped with a 500GB 5400 rpm hard drive, the average write speed of 58.1MB / S, CPU occupancy rate of 10 percent, is relatively high. Environment at 28 degrees during the test drive kept at 41 degrees, in general, this hard drive's performance quite satisfactory.
Thermal problems remain the "big Y" born farewell portable
Must determine the high-calorie high-performance, Lenovo Y460's legendary performance, but its cooling capacity is somewhat unsatisfactory. So "Big Y" in the heat can give us a satisfactory reply?
See the above chart, I think we all know the heat on Lenovo Y560D have a set number. Obviously, in the heat this Y560D inherited Y460 heat performance. In use, Y560D did not stall the fan performance, and not running any applications in the state, will be on hand on the cooling air outlet temperature will be due to discomfort, the thermometer test up to 54 degrees. In tests with 3Dmark06 run a half hour later, the heat concentrated around the power button, up to 41 degrees at a time when the outlet temperature reached 62 degrees of terror. Leaving aside the bottom of the fuselage, we have regular contact on the C surface, the Lenovo Y560 temperature control are disappointing. It seems in the heat, the association of engineers there is still much room for improvement.
ThinkPad comfortable operating experience in the industry seems almost inorganic energy and, in particular, the design of the keyboard is isolated situation. Lenovo Y560D inherited the ThinkPad keyboard, keyboard keys feel comfortable, and on this basis to make further improvements. This high touch-sensitive keyboard key-way medium, button feedback force is quite in place. In this keyboard, it can not go beyond the ThinkPad, but well-matched or not exaggerated.
As the 15.6-inch sake, Lenovo Y560D compared to Y460, the independent left and right keyboard shortcuts area of operation is more abundant, improve operating comfort. NOVO function keys for the left and the power button on the right of the volume shortcut keys.
Known, 15.6-inch notebook for its own heavy quality, portability is generally not high. Lenovo Y560D is true, the whole weight of Lenovo IdeaPad Y560 battery 2.762 kg, if you want to travel or business travel, etc. for a long time to move, then it is not a good physique can only difficult for the. However, taking into account the fixity of the home game, 15.6-inch screen at the same time bringing more shocking images to add some body weight is worth it.
A reasonable distribution of the interface layout castration TSI acceleration
Lenovo Y560D interface layout compared to the previous Y Series notebooks basically no change, still maintaining the original ease of use and comprehensive.
Lenovo Y560D fuselage on the left from left to right VGA port, HDMI port, cooling air outlet, RJ45 jack, side by side, two USB2.0 ports and audio input / output jacks.
Lenovo Y560D for the removable drive design, users only need to drive a fixed screw removed, you can easily put it out. Either replace the more extended components can also play a role in weight loss, user-friendly choice. This Lenovo IdeaPad Y560A battery design is also more and more companies take.
Notebook TSi acceleration technology can also be called Legend of the "unique skills", all this technology is called Ture Speed Inside. This technology is the use of the above motherboard Mini PCI-E expansion slot, install the high-speed solid-state hard drive, hard disk resources to reduce the CPU time of call, to further enhance the efficiency of system operation. But by the player, we can see that Lenovo Y560D and do not have this feature, but the TSi acceleration technology means that the cost increase, Moreover, ordinary users will not care about that does not significantly enhance the speed, cost-effective only after all is king.
We have also seen inside the fuselage Lenovo Y560D reserved the slot, but the location of the SIM card slot was castrated, and perhaps think of is to control costs, better face the 3G network is not yet mature, the majority of people will not touch, let alone as a young man's game against the it.
Details still look stylish in part reflects the continuation of quality
Y460 continues Lenovo Y560D fashion appearance before the bottom of the fuselage elements of ancient Chinese style roof modern technology with the full sense of the process each other, revealed a simple fashion, and do not give unexpected feeling.
Summary: Lenovo Y560D appearance of continuity with the classic appearance of the Y series, almost no change, but the tide of 3D display technology reference but also demonstrates its innovative side. With a large 15.6-inch screen Lenovo Ideapad Y650 battery and ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5730 graphics card, 3D picture effect is quite shocking, but due to the current 3D movies and games is not universal, we can not fully tap its potential, but I believe this to 3D-based trend, will emerge out of a lot of resources in this area. Let's looking forward to the "Big Y" excellent behavior.
