To determine real-world performance, we task the laptop to convert a 4K video to p resolution and to duplicate a 4. Our real-world graphics test is the Dirt 3 benchmark with medium settings at p resolution. We also run heat tests by playing a minute full-screen video and measuring temperatures in different areas of the laptop.
