Product description

Velocity Micro NoteMagix x20 15.4" Widescreen Laptop Computer

Features

Mid-size notebook: The Velocity Micro NoteMagix x20 is a mid-size notebook, with high-performance processing power and entertainment features to rival most desktops. This notebook is equipped to handle demanding applications as well as high-end graphics.

Dual core/64-bit processing: The 2.4GHz Core 2 Duo E6600 has two processing engines that work in tandem, providing much more power than standard 2.4GHz processors. This processor is also capable of processing 64 bits of information at once, twice as much as standard 32-bit processors.

  • This notebook features 2GB of advanced DDR2 system memory—enough for all but the most demanding users, gamers and multimedia professionals.
  • Data travels to the processor along the frontside bus. The faster data travels, the faster everything works. This notebook features a 667MHz frontside bus.
  • L2 caches keep data neat, organized, and nearby so processors can retrieve it quickly. This 4MB L2 cache is very large, providing a potentially strong boost in performance.

Hard drive: This hard drive features a 160GB capacity—perfect for an impressive collection of music, movies and multimedia. This drive’s data disks spin at 5400rpm. The faster they spin, the faster the data is read and written.

Versatile wireless: Built-in 802.11agn wireless LAN lets you connect in almost any airport lounge, café or public hotspot.

Built-in Bluetooth™: Enjoy easy communication with PDAs and other Bluetooth-enabled devices.

Combo drive: Use the DVD-ROM/CD-RW drive to play DVDs or burn CDs to share your files, music mixes, photos and more.

Widescreen display: This notebook features a gorgeous 15.4" high-definition widescreen display with 1680 x 1050 pixel (WSXGA+) resolution. Your documents and movies will look fantastic.

Microsoft ® Windows® Vista ™ Home Premium: Windows Vista Home Premium is the operating system for homes with advanced computer needs. And Vista Premium features the elegant new Aero interface. You’ll be able to use your notebook more effectively and enjoy new entertainment experiences—all with the benefit of added security and reliability.

High-end audio/video: This notebook features advanced NVIDIA GeForce 8600GT graphics and 512MB of dedicated video memory, an addition to the main system memory. This high-end memory is great for more demanding games or video editing.

Get connected: One FireWire, one S-Video and three USB 2.0 ports let you connect to TVs, cameras, peripherals and more.

ExpressCard/54 slot: ExpressCard is an emerging standard in smaller, faster PC card solutions. This slot is compatible with ExpressCard/54 as well as ExpressCard/34. Use it to add memory, graphics upgrades and security devices—or to store the remote control.

Fingerprint reader: Use individual fingerprints in lieu of standard passwords to access online accounts, such as banks and email. If more than one person uses the notebook, each can use a fingerprint to logon to a computer user account and access preset preferences and files.

8-in-1 media card reader: Seamlessly transfer images from your digital camera, MP3 player or camcorder. This extremely versatile 8-in-1 reader is compatible with MultiMedia Card (MMC), Secure Digital, Mini-SD, xD, Memory Stick, Memory Stick Pro, Memory Stick Duo and Memory Stick Pro Duo.

Built-in camera/mic: Stay connected to family, friends or business associates wherever you go. Video chatting face-to-face is easy with the built-in camera and microphone.

Software bundle:
Windows Vista Home Premium
Nero Digital Creation Suite

Not bad for the price
Reviewer: Bgamer from Houston, Tx on Oct 16, 2007
20 out of 32 found this review helpful

The overall performance is not too bad considering the price for the computer. I would call this an entry level gaming PC, but if you want more power it will cost more. The display is nice, clear and crisp. I did have one dead pixal but other than that itis a good quality display. The overall performance is not bad, CPU is actually pretty good for a laptop, memory is average and the video card is above average but not the best. Did not get any documentation with the laptop, nor did I get a recovery diskso make sure before you do anything back up your PC. The battery life is actually pretty poor, but with all the horsepower and fans I guess that would make sense. They should offer a larger battery if you want it. I would recommend this laptop to anyone,like I said, it is not a bad gaming laptop for the price.
