Interestingly, Asus carries N45S GT55M Series graphics from NVIDIA but NVIDIA does not carry the Optimus. This blend makes this notebook has the performance that can play 3D games with good-will you be able to see the performance of this notebook below. In addition you get a notebook-class entertainment, you can also make a capable gaming machine to entertain you.
Talking about the display, Asus N45S using a glossy screen that will make you a little disturbed by the shadows around it. However, you can minimize it by raising the level of brightness. Viewing angle is also quite good because the screen does not change the color of excessive degradation when viewed from the left and right. The screen will change color degradation when you see it from above.
Port provided on the Asus N45S quite complete. Unfortunately, at this Asus notebook series, the eSATA port on the Asus N43SL omitted. However, this is not a problem because the port is rarely used. If you require fast data transfer from ekaternal storage, you can use USB3.0 ports.
Time for us to look inside. In this section, Asus N45S combines matte black and matte silver that looks very contrast. Keyboard, speaker holes, and the bottom of the frame using the LCD screen matte silver and matte black berwrna handrest. Parts are a little disturbing is the key to control the media player is placed on the left so you have to get the finger did not press the keys too far to the left when used for typing.
For the keyboard, Asus N45S use design with large keys. Actually, the keys are quite comfortable to use, but we often make the mistake of typing because the keys are too close to each other. Our fingers a little difficult to feel the keys to one another, but this will disappear once you get used to using it for a while. Asus key in N45S feels soft and does not beep when we used to typing. The room is quite spacious touchpad is given so that your fingers will move freely when doing multitouch gestures.
Browsing 5 Tab: This online test using the FireFox browser and refresh a website alternately with a predetermined time (example: A website refresh of 30 seconds, 40 seconds refresh the website B). We use a variety of websites, ranging from mild to use flash in considerable amounts.
720 Movie 1080 Movie WMV and MOV: We simulate to obtain the value of battery life when a notebook is used for watching movies in various resolutions and the results we get using the log-time applications.
With a battery of 5200mAh, Asus N45S can only survive for about 3 hours more. Quite good, but it's worth adding Asus NVIDIA Optimus technology so that when the graphics do not require high performance, can switch to the Intel graphics for durability longer life
This transcoding using NVIDIA CUDA that uses GPUs prosesos. This is because Asus N45S is not equipped with NVIDIA Optimus QuickSync so Intel does not run on this application.
Graphics performance of NVIDIA GeForce GT555M quite encouraging. With the results obtained, you will be able to play a variety of 3D games well in the setting of the high and specific resolution. The values obtained made us want to know more about the performance of NVIDIA graphics.
We want to test the ability of the existing DX11 graphics card in the included. Therefore, we started doing a benchmark using the game Lost Planet 2 and Unigine Heaven. We also weighed on NVIDIA GT555M with Tessellation feature. Tessellation feature is a lethal weapon for the graphics card because of these features will create a 3D image is more prominent. Fiitur the drain my GPU and CPU.
Conclusion
N45S Asus notebooks are not just entertainment but also in the classroom is a notebook that has a performance capable enough to run 3D games. Asus managed to mix a notebook that has a double function as well as provide a good sound system with optional subwoofer provide so that you will get a different sensation when using this device to watch and play than regular notebooks are not equipped with a subwoofer. The combination of graphics processor and Asus N45S able to make top-level application running well. Still not satisfied?
