NotebookReview have reviewed the HP nc8430 where they write;
“Overall, this is a very fine machine that has done much to impress both myself and my co-workers. While it does have its minor flaws, the notebook itself is build business-class touch. It delivers top notch gaming and processing performance while still maintaining a sleek and small profile for a 15.4″ notebook. Most of the ports are positioned very well on the notebook, and its functionality is further enhanced with the Basic Docking Station…Its benchmarks are among the highest I’ve seen for the X1600 graphics card, no doubt thanks to the 256MB of dedicated DDR2 memory built into the graphics card. The CPU also laughs at just about anything that I can throw at it, and it isn’t even the fastest mobile processor in existence. Power, portability, entertainment, and excellent build quality…what more could you ask for?”
CNET have previewed the HP nc8430 where they write;
“Pros: Has 256MB of video RAM, which is more favorable than some similarly priced notebooks. Also, this notebook has 1 GB RAM. This is more than the average notebook on the market today, but is to be expected for a notebook of this price. Cons: Has an integrated housing media bay, which is somewhat less favorable than some similarly priced notebooks. For example, the Lenovo ThinkPad T43 , a 6-pound notebook at around $2, 565, has a plug-in module media bay. The HP Compaq nc8430 comes with simple word processing software – if you often create complex documents you will likely need to upgrade to a full-fledged office suite . “
