The C769TU meets your computing needs with the Intel® Pentium Dual-Core processor providing powerful processing capabilities complemented by a large capacity hard drive and ample system memory. The 64-bit Ready Intel Pentium Dual Core T2370 Processor is Intel's newest addition to the Intel® Pentium® processor family with dual-core processor technology that delivers great mobile performance, low power enhancements, and multitasking for everyday computing. A lot of customers think the Pentium Dual Core is slow, so we ran the Windows® Experience Index which is a new feature built into Windows Vista™.



Based on this Index, in real work applications the Pentium-Dual Core is more than sufficient. The T2370 actually has the same Processor Index as Core2 Duo processors we have tested. Even if we install a Core2 Duo on this system, the bottleneck will be the Intel X3100 video graphics, and so it is our opinion this is as fast as a system with Intel X3100 Graphics can get. Spec wise the Dual Core T2370 mobile processor features 1.7GHz processor speed, 1MB L2 cache and with 533MHz frontside bus. It has has two processing engines that work in tandem, and delivers enhanced performance for today's demanding applications such as CAD tools, 3D and 2D modeling, video editing, digital music, digital photography and gaming. Importantly, the processor features Intel Speedstep to manage battery life important to mobile computing.



By using the the new Mobile Intel® GM960 Express chipset, the Compaq C700 is blessed with the Intel Graphics Media Accelerator X3100 with up to 356MB of Intel Dynamic Video Memory and support for DirectX 9. The X3100 provides the highest level of Windows Aero experience among the Integrated Video Systems. Intel X3100 also introduces Intel® Clear Video Technology delivering enhanced video quality. "Probably the thing most people will notice is the graphics controller, for better video capability" - said Mike Trainor, Intel's chief mobile technology evangelist. The new platform will score high marks from DVD watchers, since improved color control will make the monitor show images nearly as vivid as a TV set.
