Responstijd Scherm

ℹ
De responstijden van het scherm tonen hoe snel het scherm in staat is om van één kleur naar de andere te veranderen. Trage responstijden kunnen aanleiding geven tot 'nabeelden' rond bewegende objecten of het scherm wazig maken (blur). Vooral spelers van snelle 3D-games hebben baat bij een scherm met snelle responstijden.
   ↔    Responstijd Zwart naar Wit
12 ms ... stijging ↗ en daling ↘ gecombineerd↗ 7.6 ms stijging
↘ 4.4 ms daling
Het scherm vertoonde prima responstijden in onze tests maar is misschien wat te traag voor competitieve games.
Ter vergelijking: alle testtoestellen variëren van 0.8 (minimum) tot 240 (maximum) ms. » 9 % van alle toestellen zijn beter.
Dit betekent dat de gemeten responstijd beter is dan het gemiddelde (25.6 ms) van alle geteste toestellen.
   ↔    Responstijd 50% Grijs naar 80% Grijs
18.8 ms ... stijging ↗ en daling ↘ gecombineerd↗ 10 ms stijging
↘ 8.8 ms daling
Het scherm vertoonde prima responstijden in onze tests maar is misschien wat te traag voor competitieve games.
Ter vergelijking: alle testtoestellen variëren van 0.9 (minimum) tot 636 (maximum) ms. » 8 % van alle toestellen zijn beter.
Dit betekent dat de gemeten responstijd beter is dan het gemiddelde (41 ms) van alle geteste toestellen.

Screen Flickering / PWM (Pulse-Width Modulation)

ℹ
Om de schermhelderheid te verlagen schakelen sommige laptops het backlight erg snel aan en uit. Dit gebeurt aan een dergelijk hoge frequentie dat het niet zichtbaar is voor het menselijk oog. Als de frequentie te laag is kunnen personen met gevoelige ogen geïrriteerd geraken, hoofdpijn krijgen en zelfs flickering waarnemen.
Screen flickering / PWM niet waargenomen

Ter vergelijking: 52 % van alle geteste toestellen maakten geen gebruik van PWM om de schermhelderheid te verlagen. Als het wel werd gebruikt, werd een gemiddelde van 9308 (minimum: 43 - maximum: 142900) Hz waargenomen.

Dit is de verkorte versie van het originele artikel. Het volledige, Engelse testrapport vind je hier.

De 2018 versie van de Aorus X5 v8 kan de strijd met de concurrentie op de meeste vlakken aan. Niet alleen  de behoorlijk robuuste metalen behuizing, maar ook qua aansluitingen, invoerapparaten en het beeldscherm kunnen overtuigen. Het 144 Hz IPS paneel biedt het perfecte compromis tussen snelheid en beeldkwaliteit (steekwoord X-Rite Pantone).

Een paar van de grootste minpunten zijn de hoge temperatuur- en geluidsontwikkeling, maar dat is iets dat vaak het geval is bij dunne game notebooks. Al met al plaatsen we de X5 v8 op hetzelfde niveau als de Asus GM501, die vergelijkbare prestaties heeft.

De krachtigste rivaal komt echter van dezelfde fabrikant als de X5 v8. Diegenen die zonder G-Sync kunnen en een paar FPS minder niet een groot probleem vinden, kunnen de Aero 15X overwegen. Dit 15-inch broertje beschikt over een compactere en lichtere behuizing en heeft een veel betere batterijduur, en ook de prijs is lager (€2500 vs. €2700).
