PCSpecialist Vortex IV 770XS Review

To test today, we are putting the machine through a variety of ‘real world’ situations, mirroring the real world usage of a potential customer.

One as a media movie lover on the move (wearing headphones), a person wanting to watch high definition media on a train journey or bus with screen brightness two notches from maximum.

Second as a businessman, with screen brightness around half way. Wireless was enabled. A mixture of checking, answering emails using Microsoft Office and editing pictures in Adobe Photoshop.

Lastly as a gamer, playing Left4Dead until the machine turned itself off.
battery life
Battery life is not wonderful, under most circumstances it would be expected that the Vortex IV 770XS would last between 2 and 3 hours. Considering the power on tap however the results are not too bad.

Games Emulation

KitGuru Games: The Best Console is the One in Your Pocket

Emulation is the saving grace of the video games industry. Despite its controversial nature, the technology will be the only way in which all games are preserved for the future – free from licensing agreements and other such nonsense. Better still is the fact that in a majority of cases, emulation allows for a more accurate recreation of the game’s original experience than official offerings, due to countless complex shaders, filters and tweakable settings. And the best part? Thanks to the progression of technology, your humble smartphone is able to do all this and more – giving you the power of 10,000 games in the palm of your hand.

  1. nice system, decent price. seen a simllar spec on Dell for around £500 more. I thought those bigger companies were meant to get better deals!

  2. Clevo are an acquired taste. they are bulky and not that pretty, but they are well built and last a long time. I have had one for years, I agree though, the keyboard is crap.

  3. Heat is the biggest problem with these machines, but this one looks good internally. its a step up from the last high end 17 inch unit I had, it had only one fan and it just had to work too hard. I had to clean it out every 2 months. something I should point out, is this unit is very easy to maintain by looking at the placements. a good airduster every 3 months and it would be fine.

    Good product, a company ive been watching now for a while. good builds.

  4. Wow thats a hell of a machine. good spec for the price too. cheaper than my alienware whic isn’t as fast 🙁
