The machine setup was the following:
I7 3630QM 2.4 ghz
8gb Kingston HyperX 1600 Mhz
Gpu Gtx 670m 1.5gb DDR5
Disk 1 WD 750gb 7200 rpm
Wifi Killer 1202
Visual
Compared with its 15" brother, we noticed that the P151EM , is as robust in it's material's quality, size, weight, and the design itself as the P150EM, although it doesn't have as much Eye candy as the P150EM, like the so wanted Backlit Keyboard.
Even though it lacks that eye candy, it is a more discrete laptop, without losing any of its performance, having its space fully utilized as you can see in the picture most of the space is Keyboard space, leaving the remainder of it, for the touchpad, and a comfortable big enough hand placement, to allow for many many hours of entertainment.
The screen has a tremendous quality, as you can see for yourselves in this image and upcoming videos.
Mechanics:
The P151EM, has 2 coolers, with 2 cooling pads, 1 for gpu the other for the cpu, and 2 separate fans, located at each end of the coolers extremity. The first thing to notice, is that the laptop is incredibly silent in idle and the launch time is pretty fast even without an SSD.
We also noticed, that the fan is slightly quieter than the W3xx series, but is important to know that it works very well, and cools the laptop very fast. The assembly of the components is very easy, and the laptop itself is very user friendly like most clevos are, you have access right away to almost everything, except the 3rd/4th ram slot, and the wireless card.
Performance:
The laptop has a very high performance, especially considering how much it costs, compared to other brands, and compared to the P150EM, it's a bit cheaper, for not having Backlit KB, and also lower GPU's, even if switchable.
Temperature wise, this laptop is very good, since we executed Furmark burn in test, for 15 minutes, both Cpu and Gpu temperatures didn't surpass the 82ºC the fan reaches speed 3 and 4, however, if you are using a cooling platform with a small angle, you'll notice very nice improvements, as this chassis is a bit sensitive on the angle to best suit the hot air flowing out.
About the Gaming Part, the 3 games chose for this test were, not surprisingly Battlefield 3, Need for Speed: Most wanted, and a bit of MoH: Warfighter as we promised before
Battlefield 3:
With the settings that you can verify in our videos, we had an average of 45-80 fps with 1920x1080, which is pretty decent considering, the very nice graphics that you get to enjoy without losing gameplay, unlike the the GT 660M, we didn't feel any need to reduce the resolution to increase performance further.
If you want better graphics still, you can always set everything to ULTRA, but you'll be enjoying only 30-45 fps, but still, a nice gameplay to be had with everything maxed out.
The gameplay in FHD is good, but perfect at High settings rather than ULTRA, surely with settings tweaking you'll find the setup that allows you for graphics more suited to your liking, and an adapted gameplay.
We were unsure about the temperatures considering furmark was a bit higher than the W370ET, but from 1 hours game time in battlefield 3, the max temperatures were 55ºC for GPU and CPU, which let us very at ease with this machine's cooling capability.
All in all, this is extremely capable and versatile laptop, with a decent amount of horse power, as well as very solid construction quality. Definitely an option worth considering.
