| Gateway NV55C54u |
Gateway launched its new product, the name is Gateway NV55C54u. The Gateway NV55C54u comes with features a solid black plastic design, accented with an embossed wood grain pattern. It seems a little tacky to us, but the finish resists fingerprints well. A Gateway logo rests on the left side of the lid and a glossy black bezel frames the 15.6-inch display.
The Gateway NV55C54u performed relatively poorly on PCMark07, a synthetic benchmark that measures overall performance. With a first-generation 2.4-GHz Intel i3-370M CPU and 4GB of RAM, the Gateway NV55C54u turned in a score of 1,429, a score that falls well below the 15-inch category average of 2,238, and was bested by the Toshiba Satellite L755D (2.3-GHz AMD Quad-Core A6-3400M processor, 4GB of RAM) by 117 points. Only the HP Pavilion g6, which has the same processor and RAM, failed to surpass the Gateway NV55C54u , scoring 1,332. Still, we were able to stream movies, listen to music, surf the web, and rip CDs without seeing a slowdown. It is at available at around $459.
