Digital Storm Triton

Digital Storm Triton
Digital Storm Triton ($ 1620 as tested) is a midrange gaming laptop with 15-inch screen and high-end Nvidia GeForce GTX 970M graphics. It has a good price, good performance, and unique features, such as dual mini DisplayPorts, a sub-6-pound chassis. It's light and strong for a gaming laptop.


Design and Features
The Triton is built on a black, metal chassis that measures about 0.98 by 15 by 11 inches (HWD) and weighs a svelte 5.8 pounds fully. That's 3 pounds lighter than the Digital Storm krypton, although the Editors' Choice Asus GS60 Ghost Pro 3k $ 1,804.99 at Amazon lighter still just under 4.5 pounds. The Triton and MSI GS60 same feat achieved by doing away with the optical drive and using lighter, stronger materials such as aluminum alloy. The Triton has a more subdued design than the MSI GS60, the latter featuring prominent shield logo tag as a gaming laptop. Triton could almost pass for a business laptop, although small details such as the back and side venting and beveled corners give the laptop a little more pizzazz.

The 15.6-inch, 1920-by-screen-resolution 1080 which helps to keep the list price under $ 1,700. Full 1080p HD resolution for a great gaming, plus it is shown that most of the online 720p and 1080p HD video at full resolution. The MSI GS60 has a 2880-by-1620 (3K) display with a denser pixel density, but it is considerably more expensive. No-touch support, but for now that is a rare feature in this laptop play, among systems such as Y70 Lenovo Lenovo Touch $ 1,349.00.

The backlit keyboard is quite comfortable to use, with a slightly concave keycaps help grip. The WASD keys are backlit, red arrows to help you find them in the dark. The numeric keypad is a great addition that does not always appear in the 15-inch laptop, the touchpad has two physical buttons of the mouse, which considerably easier to find by pressing during a session of play than clicking on one-piece glass touchpads, like Aorus X7 Pro $ 2,648.00 on Amazon. If there is any unit of the keyboard, we would prefer that the arrow keys to offset like it Asus ROG G750JZ-XS72 $ 2,324.50 on Amazon.

During the session of play, we noticed some significant cooling fans whirring from the system. This is not a constant noise, but they ramped up and down strongly, depending on the task at hand. Background noise Compounding this is the fact that Onkyo-branded speaker system is very soft compared to the competitors. You should be able to listen to music and watch movies in the system with a library-quiet, but if the environment is any louder than that, or if you are playing the game, you'll want to have a pair of noise-canceling headphone easy to use.

There's 8GB of system memory (upgradeable to 32GB for a whopping $ 302 more), a 120GB solid-state drive (SSD) for bootup, as well as separate 750GB SATA hard drive for data storage. A plethora of storage options are available for two trips laptop's coast. Optical drives are strictly outdoor options. If there is any drawback to this, that the recovery DVD is kind of useless until you buy an optical drive apart.

Connectivity is excellent, despite the thin chassis. The system has a full-size Ethernet port, an eSATA + USB 2.0 port, an HDMI port, two mini DisplayPorts, an SD card reader, and three USB 3.0 ports. For wireless connectivity, and Bluetooth 4.0 with 802.11ac. The eSATA port is kind of a throwback, but it can be useful to people with really old external hard drive. The system does not have any bloatware or pre-installed software, which is a good thing for a gaming rig. Triton warranty lasts three years and have a lifetime customer care (tech support and help with diagnostics). It is ideal for any PC, let alone a gaming laptop.
