The largest and heaviest type of laptop, desktop replacements are designed to deliver the power and features you’d get from a desktop PC. Too bulky for anything but room-to-room travel within a house or an office, desktop replacements typically offer the best performance, the largest screens and keyboards, and the most complete set of features available on a laptop. Popular among home and business users, most of these systems can deliver enough computing muscle for serious gaming, multimedia authoring, and even high-level digital audio and video work.

The TOSHIBA Quad Core HD Processor was designed to better serve the creative process by alleviating the intense burden that’s placed on the CPU while handling a wide range of multimedia tasks, such as video transcoding. The complex task of transcoding and encoding a personal video project monopolizes a majority of the processing power of today’s advanced computer systems.
