HP V3814TU Intel's latest Core 2 Duo mobile dual-core processor - the T8100 Penryn core architecture, clocked at up to 2.10GHz, 3MB L2 cache and 800MHz high-speed front side bus, the performance should not be underestimated. HP V3814TU based on Santa Rosa Refresh platform, the design of integrated graphics, useful for the 2GB dual-channel memory and 160GB hard drive and DVD burner, the whole media offer is 7299 yuan, a notebook from HP, has a good cost-effective.
The following test results are in the Windows Vista Ultimate 32-bit English version of the system, and test after installing the latest official driver.
Authority of the software MobileMark2007 first test machine performance and battery life tests, in this part of the test, HP V3814TU the machine performance is very good, has reached 198 points, as an integrated graphics models, to achieve this score real It is not easy, it seems that enhance the performance of the machine's high-performance processors and large memory capacity of the Penryn core. Battery life test, the 6 core 10.8V 4700 mAh battery in the case of the brightest screen adhere to 150 minutes, two and a half hours of battery life for models with an integrated graphics card really is not ideal, in practice use with power management software and screen brightness, I believe that to achieve the three hours is not a problem.
PCMark05 test, the performance of the whole is quite prominent, but the memory has played a little less than mediocre hard in this part of the test, did not show much advantage.
Vista Performance Self-Test, HP the V3814TU the score reach a score of 3.5. From specific points, we can see, the processor performance is very strong, showing the great advantage of the Penryn core architecture. In support of this score, HP V3814TU very smooth open Vista variety of special effects, including the glass effects, and the Aero desktop effects.
HD playback test, we use the H.264 encoded 1080P specifications Garfield 2 - Two Kitties "and found that HP V3814TU very smooth playback of sound and images can be synchronized will not be dropped frames or The phenomenon of pause during playback, the processor utilization is about 65%. As an integrated graphics models, this performance has been excellent, it also underlined the core architecture of Penryn T8100 processor has a very good video processing capabilities. Start a large programs will not cause the player to pause during playback, such as Office documents and the like.
Processor performance tests, we can see the outstanding performance of the T8100, and strong performance sufficient to ensure that HP V3814TU ease in everyday applications.
Test using Intel TAT temperature control software, the above is the temperature of the processor single core to run 20 minutes after the following two figures on the left is the temperature of the processor at leisure, the right is the temperature of the processor dual-core running at full capacity after 20 minutes . Can see that after 20 minutes running at full capacity of the single-core temperature is 44 degrees and 51 degrees, and the reason of the core dynamic acceleration speed (IDA), overclocked to 2.30GHz. Leisure dual-core temperature is 28 degrees and 34 degrees, can be seen in leisure time, the temperature control of the Penryn processor is ideal, and the frequency of dual-core dynamic acceleration frequency increased to 2.30GHz. In the 20 minutes after the dual-core running at full capacity, the processor temperature is 51 degrees and 58 degrees is more desirable. From the Penryn processor temperature control has made substantial progress, Also see the HP V3814TU cooling system for temperature control of the processor is in place.
Hard drive in HD Tune test, we can see the curve though not continuous but appears to "steep", but the peak of the curve the first 2/3 stage basically in the same straight line and then, some decline, that is, the entire testing process smaller changes in the maximum transmission speed of this drive, especially highlighted in the previous stage. Performance has long been HP V3814TU the hard disk with up to a higher transmission speed. But the disadvantage is still there, one processor a higher occupancy rate, temperature control is not ideal.
HP V3814TU with Intel integrated graphics GMA X3100 core frequency is 500MHz, and the high-frequency version of the X3100 integrated graphics. The test results from the theory, we can see, the results of HP the V3814TU the X3100 graphics card than the X3100 average should be much higher performance has been greatly improved. Test of the game, although there are more obvious performance improvement, but still can not do many large-scale 3D games, and lower hardware requirements for the HL2 game can not run smoothly. Therefore, regardless of the processor upgrade to the performance of powerful, integrated graphics core has not changed the situation, thus driving the performance improvement is extremely limited. Although we can not do most of the 3D games, but in general video processing and 3D applications, the HP V3814TU or well qualified.
V3814TU from the appearance point of view is a focus on multimedia applications, notebook, covered with a big "Q", we feel this this must be the spirit of entertainment, and Q using a metal wire drawing process, in the fashion sense of dynamic implicit in the inner. But does not use varnish protection, poor atop the scratch-small scratches are inevitable.
V3000 series appearance of mold, fashion, and dynamic, dark gray background, silhouetted against the silver "COMPAQ" logo from the top cover part, can be fully emerged in the HP COMPAQ sleek curves, and deep with in within the kind of delicate. Not only is work fine, and dark gray roof with a silver horizontal lines, making it with a similar hand-brushed metal that striped effect, but also manifested a distinctive style. Another connection in the top cover and the screen hinge, and that black piano lacquer effect is very prominent, the overall look is very luxurious fashion sense.
Piano paint, of course its a bad place, it is very easy to fingerprints, even if your finger is very clean, mirror-like roof surface paint is still very easy for fingerprints affect the lighting effects.
Open the cover we find that the paint outside, other aspects, such as cushion the class of security measures at all no omitted. The shaft part is relatively common, and this in a cost savings point of view acceptable.
HP V3814TU the left side of the interface from left to right, S-Video video output terminal, CK66 394V 0 HP DV9000 AC DC POWER JACK CABLE 90W PB01, VGA interface, extended my interface, Lan, interface, USB2.0 interface, IEEE 1394a ports, Express Card slot and multi-card reader (read The card has a status indicator design, access device after the next to have a blue light lit). Many left of the interface being somewhat crowded.
HP V3814TU the right side of the fuselage of the interface from left to right, DVD burner, two tied for the USB2.0 interface and Modem interface, in addition to the DC power connector and computer keyhole tied between two USB2.0 interface space is limited, use of a slightly large equipment access, another can not be used. USB interface located in the left and right sides, a balanced design is more reasonable, and also easy to use.
HP V3814TU fuselage rear does not have any interface, the space reserved for the outlet and special to the heat sink shaft design. The left side of the front of the fuselage interface are infrared communication terminal, an external Mic input and headphone / optical output, the right is the wireless LAN switch.
HP V3814TU continuation of the design of the HP V3000 series of shortcut keys, using a touch button design, with quiet blue light, respectively, QuickPlay, mute and volume adjustment of the three shortcut keys.
HP V3814TU does not use a collection of light design, especially the Caps Lock and the numeric keypad lock, respectively, in the respective button next to the indicator.
DC power input and touch pad indicator, in shielding the touchpad light is red, which is the standard design of the HP V3000.
Shortcut keys and power button are light, all lights more moderate, does not interfere with line of sight affect the screen to watch all black shiny body with a quiet blue light, very seductive.
HP keyboard design has similar products in the case of the leader, even in the low-end V3000 products will not be much shrinking, and HP V3814TU proved once again that HP's excellent work on the keyboard, and good design. The large buttons and key away from the design allows the keyboard to ease, there will not be bound by the feeling. The curved design of the buttons wrapped fingers, Scrub Cap has a good feel. The key way to belong to the type of deep, elastic medium, for the vast majority of users use a long period of use will not cause finger fatigue. But in the lower right corner of the keyboard at the junction there is something wrong Gently press under a slight depression and loose collapse phenomenon, general noise control of another keyboard.
HP V3814TU the touchpad design is beautifully placed in a central location to maintain the beauty of the whole symmetry. However, the touchpad sensitivity, move the handle is not very good, from the surface is too smooth, not a member of the appropriate damping. The touchpad area is not very large, In addition, integrated flip region around the upper and lower, to facilitate access to play page document, seem available to move the region is more narrow. Left and right button design is very praiseworthy, the key key-way darker than the soft, flexible, long-term use will not finger fatigue will not be much noise occurs.
HP V3814TU LG-Philips LCD screen, the design of a 14.1-inch glossy widescreen WXGA Standard resolution, the overall effect is good. 256 gray grid of eight naked eye can not see the effects test in the contrast test which can not see all of the lattice, the HP the V3814TU the grayscale display. Each color in natural transition smooth, colorful display in the color. Almost normal notebook display in the viewing angle, and horizontal viewing angles of 135 degrees vertical viewing angle of 120 degrees.
In acoustics, HP V3814TU Like the previous HP V3000 series uses Altec Lansing's professional speaker design than with ordinary speakers of the notebook, the HP V3814TU relatively superior in sound, especially in the range The breadth and the overall volume has a very good performance. At maximum volume when there will not be any break the sound better overall sound.
About wrist rest with a high-strength engineering plastic material, interior design's sake lead in the wrist rest is not ideal temperature control. As the hard disk location on top of the left wrist care, thus creating a wrist, and care to high temperature, the touchpad is slightly warming. The right wrist care to maintain good temperature does not affect the use of comfort. Significant warming in the middle and left areas of the keyboard area, which is a fever caused by the stacked memory and processor design and the main chipset, but little effect on the keyboard operation.
In terms of noise control, even in high-definition playback, HP V3814TU performance in terms of noise control are very good, in normal operation when the fan noise is smaller, suitable for use in a quiet environment. CD-ROM when playing a DVD disc, the vibration of the fuselage is relatively minor, the noise is not obvious, but every data buffer when the CD is high-speed rotation, noise and vibration, that is not the whole playback process so quiet. In addition, the drive's error correction.
Summary
After a detailed evaluation of HP V3814TU, this has beautiful appearance and meticulous workmanship of the notebook have a better understanding. HP V3814TU continuation of the appearance of a unique design concept, HP, intimate light design and reasonable interface layout, and also very easy to use; keyboard feel is very good, although the touchpad some discount, but still diminished comfortable feel. If you can make a greater effort in the wrist rest parts of the temperature control, I believe there will be a better use experience.
Equipped with the latest Penryn core architecture processors, HP V3814TU has a good performance of the whole, although the configuration of the integrated graphics, but excellent performance in high-definition playback. Especially in the excellent acoustics left us deep impression. Shortcomings still exist, such as the design of more advanced HDMI interface, integrated graphics, game performance is not ideal. Overall, HP V3814TU price of 7299 yuan into the market with huge brand appeal, or a higher price.
