Great Deal For Lenovo Desktop PC (India) at Rs. 21,100

Lenovo DesktopLenovo (formerly IBM division) announced very good price for Lenovo H Series (531188Q) Desktop with Intel Pentium Dual-Core Processor E2140 (1.6 GHZ), 512MB RAM, 80GB HDD and 17″ Flat CRT monitor.

E2140 Mini Review

E2140 processor has 1MB L2 cache at 1.6Ghz speed. It has 800 Mhz front side bus. Thermal design power is 65 Watts (read cooler than most Pentium you have used so far). E2140 is a stripped down, low-clocked “Conroe” processor, which is the architecture used in the initial Core 2 Duo product lineup. Beyond the cache size and front side bus speed decrease, the Pentium E2100-series is more or less identical to a Core 2 Duo. Both these chip lines are manufactured at 65nm, use Socket-775 interfaces, and support 64-bit processing. The “Conroe” processor is very efficient per clock, and if your application is not cache heavy, performance will be close on a clock for clock basis to a similarly clocked Core 2 Duo.

BTW: There are reports of stable overclocking of this processor (not on the discussed Desktop) upto 2.9 Ghz with air cooling.

Features:

  • Dual Core
  • Enhanced Halt State (C1E)
  • Enhanced Intel Speedstep® Technology
  • Execute Disable Bit 1
  • Intel® EM64T 2
  • Intel® Thermal Monitor

This computer should consume much lower power than typical 3 Ghz Pentium processors because the Conroe processors consume significantly less power.

This desktop doesn’t ship with an operating system (unless you count DOS). So you are free to use (free) Linux operating system if you want.

At Rs 21,100 (including tax in Bengal) I think this is a great buy for any new computer buyer or even for a professional user. Lenovo’s toll free number in India is 1800-425-3353. They also come with two assured gifts if you purchase before 30th November 2007.

Note: I am not associated with IBM or Lenovo in any way. I do however possess an old IBM ThinkPad (1Ghz processor with touchscreen, notepad where notes get in the computer - all for 600$ only) which my favorite client thinks I must change (for its worn-out looks).
