Toshiba Satellite A665-S6065

$1,000.00 Released June, 2010

The Pros:Competitive price for a quad core notebook with a strong mid range GPU, good for some moderate gaming. The Core i7 quad core CPU paired with a Nvidia GPU that can run CUDA, this makes a formidable machine for productivity with plenty fo processing power. Offers USB ports that can be used for charging devices when the notebook is in sleep mode, as well as a fast eSATA/USB combo port.

The Cons:The 1366x8768 resolution on a 16" display is beyond disappointing, especially such a powerful noteboopk. The glossy display is overly reflective, very uncomfortable to use in bright conditions.

The Toshiba Satellite A665-S6065 is a high-end notebook laptop similar to the Toshiba Satellite A665-S6058. The sole yet significant improvement that the A665-S6065 boasts over the A665-S6058 is its Intel Core i7-720QM processor (as opposed to the A665-S6058's Intel Core i5-450M processor).

Otherwise, besides lacking the A665-S6058's battery saving Optimus GPU technology, the A665-S6058 and A665-S6065 are the same, sporting: a 16" LCD display (1366x768), an NVIDIA GeForce GT 330M graphics processor, 4GB of DDR3 RAM, a 500GB hard drive, a memory card reader, a DVD RW drive and an HDMI output.

The A665-S6065's Intel Core i7-720QM processor sports 4 cores, allowing for extremely intensive computer use but at the cost of battery life: the A665-S6065's 6-cell battery only lasts approximately 3 hours per charge. Its NVIDIA GeForce GT 330M graphics processor allows the A665-S6065 to handle moderate gaming with relative ease, when paired with its other specs, as well as high definition media playback. Additionally, the A665-S6065's memory card reader allows for direct interfacing with most popular storage devices (SD, MS, MD).
