After Intel launched the Intel Arrandale at the beginning of this year, some manufacturers of notebook makers directly arming them with Intel Arrandale notebook. One is the manufacturer MSI is based in Taiwan. With the Arrandale make this manufacturer adds to the series of notebooks and one of them is the MSI CX61 2QC that use Intel i3 M330. At MSI CX61 2QC, you will get a dual graphics the Intel GMA HD and ATI Mobile Radeon HD5470.

You can choose to use graphics which were obtained by using a utility within or by pressing the short cut buttons located on the top left of the keyboard, it automatically will switch graphics. You can see comparison of the other laptop at http://versuslaptop.com/ check it out. This graphics exchange process does not require a restart windows, you just have to close programs that are running and press the desired button, then just seconds will switch automatically. The advantage of this is the use of dual graphics you'll get more battery life using Intel graphics and get better performance by using ATI Radeon.

The outer casing of the MSI CX61 2QC is decorated with a thin silver stripes on the cover of the LCD screen is black. In the immediate change in color with silver base color with a thin black line on the handrest and color displacement is clearly visible once at the top of the graded. The keyboard is used also includes ergonomic chicklet keyboard keys models sweet. Like most notebooklainnya, you will find various slots and ports on the left and right of the notebook. The little wedge we are placing the processor heat dissipation air holes located on your right so it is quite disturbing when you use the mouse, the heat generated will directly gushes of your hand.

On this test we tested on two konsidi. First on condition using Intel graphics and the second on condition using ATI graphics. In fact the test using Sysmark 2007 there was no change in the preview Rating, performance obtained in both conditions produce the same value, so you do not have to worry about having to use graphics which if only for work.

On this test we also tried the two conditions. The result is given very different in terms of the live battery rating. On the use of graphics Intel battery life is longer than the ATI graphics. This shows that the Arrandale keep its promise in the incorporation of graphics into the processor makes the notebook that uses Arrandale will be more power efficient. In terms of performance not far adrift.

On this test we perform as well on two different graphics condition. The results shown that when using Intel graphics, the processor must share the TDP with graphics that result in reduced performance. But instead when using the ATI graphics processor gets the higher performance because TDP is used entirely by the processor. This is what was promised Intel Arrandale with Turbo graphics.

With the use of dual graphics, you will get a notebook that can be invited to work smoothly with the battery life is fairly high with the combination of Arrandale i3 processor with Intel graphics and a simple game engine with a combination of Arrandale i3 processors with ATI graphics.

Perhaps in the end you have to think again if you are someone who is thirsty maniac 3D games with stunning graphics display for this purchase despite using ATI graphics. It looks like this notebook fits all when you use more middleclass applications and not too require high graphics performance when using them to play games.
