Hewlett Packard Omen 16-wd0660nw - Core i5-13420H | 16,1"-FHD-144Hz | 16GB | 1TB | Win11Home | RTX4050

The maximum resolution of the display indicates the number of colour points (pixels) on the computer screen. The higher the resolution the better quality (more detailed) image. For example, 1366x768px means that your computer has 1366 points horizontally x 768 points vertically. High resolution provides more information on the screen and this is directly related to the size of the screen. Nowadays even a 12.1 inches screen can have 1024x768 resolution. At the first glance it looks that this resolution is too high for this size of the screen, however, high resolution provides more comfort.

WVGA (800x480) is characteristic for old portable computers and mini tablet computers of the new generation. WSVGA – ultra mobile portable computers with the display of 10.1’’ (the resolution of 1024x600 can be seen more often).

WXGA (1280x800) – this resolution is mainly characteristic of 12.1’’, 13.3’’, 14.1’’ screen with the relation of sides of 16:9.

HD 1366x768 and 1600x900 is a widespread resolution for the budget and middle class portable computers.

Full HD (1920x1200) resolution combined with high capacity video cards (NVidia Quadro FX vai ATI FireGL) is intended for the professional level 3D modelling work.

WUXGA (1920x1200) – ultra extended graphical arrangement (screen16:10) is intended for watching HD TV.

Attention has to be paid also to the contrast and brightness of the screen. The screen must have the maximum brightness for using the portable computer even in very bright lighting conditions.

RAM is a short-term data storage. This component determining the operation speed:

• allows the CPU of your computer to have fast access to the information that needs to be processed used by the computer application which you have opened;
• at the moment of opening an application stores it in its microchips, thus the memory capacity determines how many applications can be run by your computer simultaneously and also with how big data volume (pictures, texts, webpages) you can operate at once.

Thanks to the dense placement of chipsets the RAM of a portable computer has the same characteristics as the RAM of desktop computers. Dateks.lv recommends to use 3Gb or higher capacity RAM for general use.

AnSSD, or Solid State Drive, is a modern storage device that, unlike hard disk drives (HDDs), has no moving parts and stores all information on NAND memory chips. This is why SSDs are much more reliable, as they can withstand shock, vibrations and temperature changes much better. The main advantage is the high data transfer speeds as well as the lowaccess time. Currently, SSDs equipped with a SATA 3 port deliver data transfer speeds of 500 MB/s on average. However, some drives using M.2 or PCI-Express ports have data throughputs

2000 MB/s.

Video card is a device that displays information on the screen of a portable computer. This parameter indicates what is the model and manufacturer of the video card integrated with the portable computer. However, you can forget the visually impressive and 3D graphics shooting or driving games because this is an integrated video card. An integrated video card usually uses a fraction of the basic memory of the portable computer.

For office and study use Dateks recommends to buy a portable computer with Intel HD Graphics video card.

For playing 3D games and using graphics applications we recommend to buy a portable computer with ATI Radeon, Intel HD or Nvidia GeForce series video card. If 3D modelling is the major type of use - AutoCAD, Maya, 3DMAX, we recommend to buy a portable computer with Nvidia Quadro or AMD FirePro card.

The parameter "video card memory" indicates whether the video card will use a fraction of the RAM of the portable computer for performing its functions or the video card has own memory of a certain amount of MB.

Wireless is the wireless network connection via which the computer will be connected to the router or the access point. Nowadays the 802.11 B/G/N connection with the highest speed operation (150 -300 Mb/s) and highest security is most popular.

Via 802.11 B/G it is also possible to connect to virtually all network, just the maximum speed will be 54 Mb/s in connections to the N type network.
