Why does this happen?

Simple, laptop manufacturers have to get rid of old stock somehow so they’ll often repackage old £1000 laptops and sell them at greatly discounted prices. This is fine some of the time and can be a great way to save some money but becomes an issue when technology has recently progressed to a new platform.

The Intel Sandy Bridge Example

In the last 18 months or so Intel has changed the architecture of their processors and moved onto the greatly improved “Sandy Bridge” architecture. This new architecture included significant improvements that resulted in considerably faster processors that run cooler, use less power and have greatly improved on-board graphics. As a result manufactures are now trying to shift their old stock and are slashing prices on many of their historic, high end products dropping them into the £500 bracket. At first glance they seem like great deals but in reality it’s already old technology.

The main problem lies in the fact that the majority of consumers won’t know whether they are buying one of the new “Sandy Bridge” items or one of the older, inferior systems repackaged and on sale for £500. Intel compounded this problem by not changing the name of their processors, they are still i3, i5 and i7 processors but with slightly different product codes.

What Can You Do To Avoid This

Take some time to familiarise yourself with current technology and as a minimum make sure you understand the different processors and their model numbers. Second generation “Sandy Bridge” chips can be identified by their longer product codes that feature a four digit suffix, for example i3-2310. As long as there are four digits after either i3, i5 or i7 you can be sure that you are buying a second generation Intel processor.

At this moment, if you have £500 to spend on a new laptop there are plenty of models available with these newer chips. By being astute about your purchase now you can effectively increase the useful life of your new laptop.

To achieve the car title pawns (as title advances are usually called), the borrower should have clear title or hold to his vehicle and this implies that the car must be free from any due payments or liens.
