Note that all the above models are discrete. Actually, for a configuration with discrete graphics, it is the model of a separate video adapter that is indicated; if it is supplemented by an integrated module, the name of this module can be clarified by the official characteristics of the processor.
It is also worth mentioning that this paragraph does not give the full name of the model, but only its name within the series (the series itself is given separately - see above). However, knowing the series and model, one can easily find detailed information about the graphics card.
Video memory
The amount of native video memory installed in the laptop's graphics card. Only discrete video adapters and their advanced varieties like SLI or Dual Graphics have such memory (see "Video card type").
The more memory, the more powerful the graphics card and the better it can handle complex graphics. Of course, the specific capabilities of the adapter depend on a number of other parameters (primarily the characteristics of the graphics processor); however, the difference in the amount of memory, as a rule, is quite consistent with the difference in the overall level. In terms of specific numbers, solutions with
2 GB are entry-level,
4 GB and
6 GB are intermediate, and
8 GB - to advanced, and
12 GB and
16 GB can be found in top-end gaming laptops and high-end workstations.
3DMark06
The result shown by the laptop's graphics card in 3DMark06.
This test primarily determines how well a graphics card handles intensive workloads, in particular, with detailed 3D graphics. The test result is indicated in points; the more points, the higher the performance of the video adapter. Good 3DMark06 scores are especially important for
gaming laptops and advanced workstations. However, it is difficult to call them reliable, since measurements are made on video cards with different TDPs and an overall average score is given. Thus, your laptop can have either more or less than the specified result - it all depends on the TDP of the installed video card.
3DMark Vantage P
The result shown by the laptop graphics card in the 3DMark Vantage P test.
Vantage P is a variant of the popular 3DMark test — namely, the next version of this test after 3DMark06 (see above). Like all such tests, it is designed to test the performance of graphics under high loads and displays the results in points; the more points, the more powerful and performant the graphics card is. Good results in 3DMark Vantage P are especially important if the laptop is going to be used for demanding games. However, it is difficult to call them reliable, since measurements are made on video cards with different TDPs and an overall average score is given. Thus, your laptop can have either more or less than the specified result - it all depends on the TDP of the installed video card.
In box
Additional items included with the laptop.
—
Stylus. Dedicated touch screen pen (see above); respectively, found only in laptops with this feature. The stylus is more accurate than a finger, which can be indispensable for some tasks, such as drawing and signing documents electronically (on the screen).
—
Docking station. An additional accessory in the form of a characteristic stand designed to expand the capabilities of the laptop. For more details, see "Connecting the docking station", here we note that such a "stand" is not necessarily supplied in the kit, so this point is specified separately. The only exceptions are 2-in-1 laptops (see "Type") — the removable lower part of such a device, where the keyboard is located, in this case is also considered a docking station, and it is included in the package by definition.
—
Backpack / bag / case. Includes one of the following accessories. Which option is included in the kit should be clarified separately, however, all such accessories provide additional convenience in carrying, protection from dirt, damage and prying eyes, and may also provide space for additional accessories (mouse, external HDD, etc.). In general, bags are the most popular option — they are relatively inexpensive and at the same time practical, the bag can be used when traveling around the city, and even on a long trip. Backp
...acks are less common: they are more voluminous, functional and comfortable for long-term wear, but they are also more expensive. The covers are as simple as possible, they are designed mainly for transportation in a car or in a bag with other things, as well as for carrying over short distances (for example, within the same office complex).
— Mouse. Classic computer mouse, without which it is extremely difficult, if not impossible, to work in most modern operating systems. However you can use a touchpad or trackpoint for the same purposes (see "Manipulator"), however, such devices are still less convenient and functional than a traditional mouse.
— Adapters. Various adapters (adapters) for connecting devices using a different type of plug to laptop ports. Adapters from USB-C to other standards are especially popular nowadays — the USB-C connector is very versatile and can be used for different types of data, and manufacturers often refuse more specialized connectors to save space. Thus, modern laptops can be equipped, in particular, with adapters from USB-C to an audio jack (usually 3.5 mm mini-Jack — for connecting headphones and computer speakers), to HDMI (for connecting external screens) and to USB A (for peripherals with full-size USB plugs). Of the other types of adapters found in the kit, USB A — LAN can be noted: the standard LAN connector is rather bulky, and it is difficult to use it in thin cases.
