Performance

SysMark 2007

The performance offered by Intel’s Core i5 2430M high enough on the benchmark using SysMark 2007, so you can run applications upscale quite fluently.

Baterry Life Rating

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.

Movie with 720 WMV and 1080 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.

5200mAh battery power for this notebook enough to run for 4 hours less to play 720P movie and can last for 3 hours to do the browsing activity with 5 tabs using wifi.

Transcoding

Transcoding process is also quite fast and will run faster if you use applications that support Intel Quicksysc. You do not need to linger waiting for the results to be incorporated the gadget for tablet or your smartphone.

NVIDIA GeForce GT 540M Performance

Graphics performance of NVIDIA GeForce GT540M is quite encouraging. With the results obtained, you will be able to play a variety of 3D games well at high settings and a 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 that included. Therefore, we started doing a benchmark using the game Lost Planet and Unigine Heaven. We also weighed on NVIDIA GT540M with Tessellation feature. Featured Tessellation is a lethal weapon for the graphics card because these features will create a 3D image is more prominent. Featured will be draining the GPU and CPU.

When playing game Lost planet, you can still adjust the settings of this game at n low native resolution with DX11 future. In the benchmark sytetis Unigine Heaven, you can see the results are only achieved 15.4 FPS on normal benchmark setting.

In the game Left4Dead Left4Dead and 2, the combination of CPU and GPU make this game runs very smoothly at native resolution and high settings. It made us begin by setting 8x MSAA. It turned out that the results obtained are still very comfortable to play because FPS rate is above 30fps. Game Resident Evil 5 also can run smoothly at native resolution on high settings with 8xMSAA future life, FPS acquired still comfortable on the eyes because of the lowest FPS in figure 34.6.

In this racing game looks like you have to give up playing in DX9 because when you force running in DX11 then the image will not achieve 30fps and make broken images.

Conclusion

Design special editions and completeness of Asus N43SL arguably captivating. With the use of Bang & Olufsen speakers that we feel quite qualified to give sound delicious in the hearing. Performance graphics processor enough and make this notebook can be used to work and be a good entertainment machine for playing 3D games or view multimedia content HD1080P. As a notebook in entertainment class, Asus N43SL will satisfy your eyes and ears.
