Reviews for the Samsung R40
Samsung R40
Source: PC Pro
The constant evolution of the PC might mean new headline breakthroughs such as eight-core processors and 750GB hard disks, but it also means that you can pick up powerful PCs based on recent technology for a small outlay. In the case of this Samsung, that means an Intel dual-core processor with 1GB RAM and a 15.4in TFT for only £569. Surely there must be a catch? Good performance, but build quality and screen are poor - only the excellent keyboard prevents a lower score.

Samsung R40 Review
Source: Notebookreview.com
The Samsung R40 satisfies my needs very well. For a budget laptop, it is good value for money, having a generous amount of ram and, although one of the slowest core duo processors, much faster than the previous generation of notebooks. For my needs the integrated Xpress 200m graphics card is more than sufficient, and I recall some people reporting that some popular games can be played at low settings and resolutions quite smoothly. Plus it is windows vista capable. I would recommend this laptop to anyone looking for a fast reliable machine on a tight budget.

The 2 MB L2 Cache are used together by the double. The maximum capacity of 31 watts is only 4 watts more than with the Pentium M (predecessor). Both cores are lowered automatically and independently of each other by speed steps down to 1 GHz. In addition it now supports also SSE3 instructions.
