Since ASUS, which has a pretty good reputation in the field of boards and cards, entered the notebook computer market, it has had good results every week. Word-of-mouth reputation, and ASUS notebooks have many low-priced notebooks, but the low-priced notebooks are relatively cost-effective. Therefore, many students with limited budgets will choose Asus when choosing a "student machine". Some companies will also choose Asus as a business machine. Asus's performance in business machines is indeed remarkable. The editor below will bring you an ASUS laptop that performs well in gaming and business, the ASUS A8J.
Appreciation of appearance and details
The appearance design of ASUS A8J is simple and fashionable, without unnecessary ornate appearance design. But in its simplicity, it reveals a noble and elegant atmosphere. The color selection of the A8J body is concentrated in silver and black. The corners are curved, showing an approachable character.
A8J adopts the mainstream 14.1 widescreen design, with a screen ratio of 16:10 and a resolution of 1280*800. A8J adopts a button lock design, which looks very beautiful and elegant.
The keyboard adopts the usual keyboard design of ASUS laptops and inherits the excellent feel of ASUS laptop keyboards. Both the keyboard key spacing and key travel are relatively moderate. The only regret is that the keyboard feels hard for large characters, and it takes some time for users to get used to it.
There are brushed metal power switch keys and three yellow-green status indicators distributed on the keyboard. There are five sets of shortcut keys located on the upper left side of the keyboard: Power4 Gear, Bluetooth, wireless network, Splendid color technology, and Mobile Theater shortcut keys.
Interface introduction
Thanks to the wider body of ASUS A8J, the interface design is very rich: 5 USB2.0 interfaces, DVI interface, VGA interface, S video , four-in-one card reader, ExpressCard slot, infrared interface, Bluetooth 2.0+EDR, 1000M network card, which can fully meet the expansion needs of most users
Right side of the fuselage: two USB2.0. Interface, infrared transmission port. The USB2.0 interface design is slightly crowded, and it is inevitable that the cables will become entangled when connecting multiple USB devices.
Left side of the fuselage: Headphones/SPDIF (optical output), audio. Input, 1394 FireWire interface, EXPRESS CARD slot, followed by a fully compatible DVD burner and four-in-one card reader (SD/MMC/MSD/MSD PRO). The EXPRESS CARD standard provides higher performance and richer expansion functions. The expansion cost of the notebook computer is lower, and the expansion card size is smaller.
Rear end of the fuselage: two USB2.0 interfaces, S-Video video output terminal, VGA. Output, DVI digital output, RJ45 interface, RJ11 interface and keyhole. ASUS A8J is equipped with DVI digital output that is rarely used in notebook computers. DVI transmits digital signals, and the digital image information does not need to be converted in any way, and the speed is faster. Using DVI for data transmission, the signal is not attenuated and the colors are more realistic. This is also a development trend of future notebook computer display output.
ASUS A8J configuration list
The hardware configuration of ASUS A8J is very mainstream, and it is built on the Intel dual-core mobile computing technology platform. The processor uses Intel Core dual-core T2400, with a main frequency of 1.83GHz and a 667MHz system bus. Friends have learned about it in previous tests, so I won’t go into details here. With 2GB DDR2 memory, it can easily run all major software on the market. The chipset uses Intel’s high-end 945PM chipset with a front-side bus of 667MHz. Due to the reasonable hardware configuration, the ASUS A8J performed very well in the test.
Mobility Radeon X1600 display core uses 90nm manufacturing process and supports Avivo, SM3.0, ATI PowerPlay6.0 and DLCS. It ensures that the notebook computer has good 3D image processing capabilities.
Although the ASUS a8j was a computer many years ago, it seems now that it is pretty good in terms of appearance, configuration and performance. ASUS has always performed well in the field of business computers. For many office workers who need a business laptop, a laptop that can be used for both gaming and business is undoubtedly the best choice. In recent years, ASUS has also been constantly launching new products. Whether it is on a home computer or a business computer, the performance has been greatly improved. Moreover, Asus is relatively cheap and has high cost performance. When choosing a laptop, you can consider Asus.
