Gaming on the Fujitsu Lifebook N3530 |
|
Before I
introduce you to Fujitsu's new N3530 Lifebook, there are two
things you need to know about me. One, I love gaming,
Playstation, PSP, Xbox and my new baby the Xbox 360. Two, Star Wars.
Ever since I was a snot covered five year old
watching the exploits of Skywalker et al in 1977, I have been
looking for vacation property in a galaxy far far away. So when the new game for PC only "Star wars: Empire at war" was released I was the first in line to buy it. Imagine my disappointment when it didn't work on my aging desktop, and ever worse when it failed on my old spec challenged laptop. So my envious glances turned to the new range of super-notebooks launched by Fujitsu. These Lifebooks (N3530, N6410, and E8110) cover all the bases if you're a gamer, wanting a central hub for your media, or a power user who needs cutting edge tech. |

However it was the first one, N3530 that caught my keen gamer's
eye. I wasn't disappointed, the Lifebook
N3530 is certainly squarely aimed at people like me, dyed in the
wool, up to 3am with bleeding fingers gamers. The early bird catches the worm, and the N3530 is certainly an early adopter of duo core tech, powered as it is by the latest Intel Centrino platform. This Fujitsu beauty moves with a power up cycle that comes in at a blistering 20 seconds, and a display that will redefine the concept of beauty in the computer world. The Lifebook's screen is a sizable 15.4 inch Colour-Enhanced Crystal View widescreen display, which puts traditional LCD display to shame. With real colour and amazing shading possibilities it really is a viewers delight. It's got a fast Serial ATA 100 GB hard drive and a built in ATI Mobility Radeon X1400 with 128 MB HyperMemory to store and power the latest games and everything else that you want to throw at it. As for external optical storage duel layer DVD is handled by the internal drive. Connections are also adequately covered by four USB 2.0 ports, a firewire for your Camcorder or IPOD and a card reader that can take the popular MS/SD/XD formats. With SD cards getting as large as 2 GB's now, this is a nice addition that can only get more useful as the days go on. The Fujitsu N3530 Lifebook is certainly near the top of my list for a gaming replacement. Until then I'm staring at the box of "Empire at War" with ever increasing longing..... Please note, if you're looking for an ultralight laptop, this Lifebook is probably not what you're looking for, as it tips the scales at a hunky 7.9 lbs.
