PCSpecialist Optimus V X13 Review

We recently replaced our long term Patriot Supersonic Magnum 256GB with the faster Corsair Flash Voyager GTX 128GB. You can read our review of the product over here. This page explains differences in performance with or without a UASP driver. The PCSpecialist Optimus V X13 has Windows 8.1 installed, so we don't expect issues.

Sequential read performance is excellent, although the sequential write performance should be around 170 GB/s in Crystaldiskmark.

Excellent USB 3.0 throughput performance, peaking at 460 MB/s in the read test and 190 MB/s in the write test.

The Tryx Luca L70 had some negative press at launch but is it really that bad?

  1. well, had a look at it, and it seems that price is a load of crap.. thats the price for the base unit with the dual core pentium CPU, nnd the basic ram/HDD setup. -_- was about to put in an order.

  2. Click the reviews tag at the top of the pcspecialist page and you will find this exact spec for £749. I’ve used this company several times and have always been very happy with the service and the product. Hope this helps

    I’ve had this laptop (but a higher end config) since 2014 now. The chassis is garbage. PC specialist have been nice enough to change it for me twice now but, basically, you get a lot of cracks from the very sharp corners around the screen and keyboard as they are stress concentrators. The internal hardware is real good, however and PC Specialists have been quite good with customer care.

  4. I’ve also got this laptop. Yep I had the chassis changed too, funnily enough I also bought in 2014. I am having continuing problems with overheating, have swapped the thermal paste no end of times, think the heat pipes might be busted or something.
