Reviews for the Toshiba Qosmio X875-Q7280
Source: Comp Reviews
Toshiba's Qosmio X875-Q7280 offers a decent overall 17-inch gaming laptop but it has one major issue and that is the display. Most gaming laptops in this price range offer a full 1080p capable display but Toshiba opted for a lower resolution one. They make up for this by including more memory and storage space than much of the competition but it misses the fact that the graphics and display are the two most critical components for a gaming system.

Intel Core i7: The Intel Core i7 for laptops is based on the LG1156 Core i5/i7 CPU for desktops. The base clock speed of the CPUs is relatively low, but because of a huge Turbo mode, the cores can dynamically overclock to up to 3.2 GHz (920XM). Therefore, the CPU can be as fast as high clocked dual-core CPUs (using single threaded applications) but still offer the advantage of 4 cores. Because of the large TDP of 45 W / 55 W, the CPU is only intended for large laptops.
3610QM:
An Ivy Bridge-based quad-core processor clocked at 2.3 GHz with Turbo Boost support up to 3.3 GHz. Offers an integrated HD Graphics 4000 GPU running at 650-1100 MHz on a dual channel DDR3 memory controller.

The DTR-laptops can't be carried easily, need much energy but on the other side texts can be read easily and high resolutions are no problem. DTR mainly are intended for stationary usage on desks, where the weight and the energy need are unimportant.

3.4 kg: This laptop is heavy below average, compared with the average of notebooks. Therefore especially desktop replacements fit in this class of weight.
Toshiba: Toshiba Corporation is a multinational conglomerate manufacturing company, headquartered in Japan.

Toshiba is one of the biggest international notebook-manufacturer. There exist many reviews for Toshiba models.
