The Medion Erazer Deputy P40 (MD62564) faces the competition
The Medion Erazer Deputy P40 (MD62564) is available now in promotion at Boulanger and offers a configuration/price ratio attractive for its category where it is one of the cheapest to offer such a recent and powerful graphics card and processor with such a high frequency and definition screen.
If this Medion Erazer Deputy P40 (MD62564) does not meet all your criteria, you will find it in our guide Gaming laptop other configurations to play with a similar budget. For the same budget, choose the model with the most powerful graphics card, it will have the greatest impact on performance.
Chassis, connections, screen of the Medion Erazer Deputy P40 (MD62564)
It has a relatively sober look for a gaming computer whose codes it adopts through its black design with angular lines and connectors positioned partly at the back.
This creative gaming laptop PC integrates good connectivity including 1 USB-C, practical HDMI and mini-DisplayPort video outputs to easily connect it to a TV or monitor for example, Bluetooth 5.2 and Wi-Fi 6E ax wireless modules to communicate and connect remotely, Ethernet and audio ports but also 3 USB including 2 USB 3.0 (USB 2.0 compatible) guaranteeing transfers up to 10 times faster only USB 2.0 if USB 3.0 devices are plugged into it.
A backlighting solution equips the chiclet keyboard so that its keys can be better distinguished in a dimly lit environment.
The screen stands out with its 2.5K definition superior to Full HD, suitable for High Definition content such as videos thanks to its 16:9 format. As it is anti-reflective, the screen also offers better visibility in a bright environment (e.g. outdoors) than a shiny panel.
Furthermore, with its frequency of 144Hz, the screen significantly improves fluidity in games compared to the standard 60Hz while its IPS technology guarantees significant viewing angles, both horizontally and vertically.
Performance, autonomy of the Medion Erazer Deputy P40 (MD62564)
The Medion Erazer Deputy P40 (MD62564) may appeal to those who wish to acquire a versatile 15-inch laptop PC that performs well in gaming and creation equipped with recent components.
It is capable of running the most recent and resource-intensive 3D games. Because it embeds the dedicated high-end NVIDIA Ada Lovelace GeForce RTX 4060 ray tracing graphics card ensuring good fluidity in gaming despite the high 2.5K definition of the screen requiring more graphics calculations than Full HD, which implies a number of lower fps.
In addition to gamers, the GeForce RTX 4060 will be of interest to creators because it accelerates processing under software taking advantage of multi-core, such as Sony Vegas, Adobe Photoshop/Premiere or VSDC.
Depending on needs, Optimus automatically switches in real time between the Iris Xe graphics solution and the GeForce RTX 4060. The latter is activated by NVIDIA Optimus technology to carry out graphics processing deemed too heavy for the Intel Iris Xe.
Housed in the processor, the Iris
It is the Intel Core i5-12450H Raptor Lake-H hybrid processor which hosts the Iris Xe. Here it is associated with 16 GB of RAM to deliver solid general performance capable of satisfying many users.
This heart which supports the GeForce RTX 4060 well in games will interest creative people. Because it guarantees faster processing than a classic Quad Core and 8 GB DDR4, the difference being particularly notable in areas demanding CPU and RAM resources using multi-core (and therefore the 8 cores of the Core i5), which is by example the case in photo editing or video editing.
The storage here is entrusted to an SSD which rivals the standard of hard drives in terms of capacity with its 512 GB while being more resistant to shocks, more energy efficient, silent and much faster.
In practice, the SSD thus ensures much better fluidity and responsiveness in use than a simple hard drive.
Thanks to the SSD we obtain in particular faster launches of games/software, as well as starts/stops and processing, or even faster arrival on online game cards.
Of course, if you need more space, you can rely on an external storage unit. Favoring a USB 3.0/USB-C device then represents an advantageous option for obtaining fast transfers.
Finally, in terms of autonomy while waiting for more complete tests, expect around 5 hours of battery operation in light use for this versatile creative gaming laptop which can be expected to heat up and be heard under heavy load. (e.g. games, treatments).
If necessary to contain the temperatures, we can add to this computer a ventilated support (remember to check the dimensions carefully!).
