Toshiba Satellite Pro C870 Review and Specifications

Toshiba Satellite Pro C870 Specifications and Price, cheap Notebook with Intel Core i3-2350M Dual Core
Toshiba Satellite Pro C870 Specifications and Price, Toshiba Satellite Pro C870 series consists of a 17.3-inch notebook for the business environment in the range of low price-to-mid. About two years ago, we reviewed a precursor to the series, Toshiba Satellite Pro L670-170. Satellite Pro C870-11R notebooks we have been provided for review, about 500 Euros (~ $ 637), while the cheapest model in this series. The device is powered by an Intel Core i3-2350M dual-core processor, and has four gigabytes of memory to work with. The Intel HD Graphics 3000 is responsible for the graphical display, 500 GB hard drive to function as a data storage unit, and a DVD burner is also ready to serve you.

To assess the comparative quality of the notebook, we will put the Acer Aspire 7739Z-compete P624650MNKK (Intel Pentium P6200, Intel GMA HD) and Samsung Series 3 305E7A-S03DE (AMD A6-3420M, AMD Radeon HD 6540G2)

In standby mode power draw we read between 8.2 and 14.8 Watts. With the result that the C870 is the average at the same level as the Samsung Series 3 305E7A-S03DE. Acer Aspire 7739Z revealed himself to be a good little hungry and keep himself in power consumption levels of 11.3 to 20.4 Watts. At full capacity (Prime95 and FurMark running simultaneously) both the power consumption levels of C870 and Acer devices increase to 53.3 Watts. Model Samsung reached a value of 56.1 Watt here. At half capacity (3D Mark 06 runs), the C870 requires 41.4 Watt: 2.1 Watts precisely over the Samsung notebook and more than 6.5 Watts Acer notebook.

This system can run faster and smoother. Overall, the 17-incher is slowed by the hard drive. Results from PCMark Vantage benchmark lies within the expected range and at about the same level of the other notebook equipped with an Intel Core i3-2350M - for example HP ProBook 4530s-B0Y11EA. Results for Samsung notebook (AMD A6-3420M, AMD Radeon HD 6540G2) is approximately the same range as the Toshiba models. Acer Aspire (Intel Pentium P6200, Intel GMA HD) behind them.
