Gaming

Click, shoot, scroll, or type, the DB74 is more than capable of running light games that don’t require high end hardware. And at C$1,599.00, this laptop won’t break the bank either.

It's good for academic research

Light, portable, and full-featured, the DB74 is ideal for carrying between offices and libraries. You’ll have all the tools you need to research and write outstanding research papers and theses.

Videos for fun

Whether you’re vlogging on YouTube, or putting together high-quality family videos, the DB74 can meet your needs.

Music and Audio

Making your first steps in music editing? The DB74 has what it takes to deliver your audio craft.

Its all about the Beats

When you need crystal clear audio and plenty of grunt for processing and encoding, the DB74 can handle everything you throw at it. A selection of ports allow you to connect instruments and devices, while the 2.8 GHz takes care of the actual production work.

Book keeping

Managing finances has never been simpler. The DB74 has enough processing power to manage even the largest spreadsheets. And the inclusion of a 1 makes typing and updating numbers even easier.

Can handle a Full-Stack Coding Environment

Emulating a full-blown virtual server environment requires plenty of grunt. The DB74 uses a Intel Core i7-7700HQ CPU and 16 GB RAM to power multiple VMs and your dev tools simultaneously.

Regular Stuff / Everyday Tasks

Spreadsheets, presentations and documents, don't need much, but your Intel Core i7-7700HQ processor and 16 GB RAM ensures even image laden files won't leave you watching the 'spinning wheel'!

Surf the web at speed thanks to the DB74’s speedy b/g/n/ac WiFi interface.

Sending and receiving email is a relatively lightweight activity that the DB74 can comfortably handle. It also comes with 1000 GB of total storage so you never have to delete a message or attachment again.

Facebook, twitter etc require little processing power or screen specification so the DB74 will do just fine.

Battery life is fairly decent

With its 5 hours battery life, the DB74 offers a good amount of freedom while moving from place to place around the house.

For anyone who works on the road, or outside the office, portability is everything. With a battery life of 5 hours, the DB74 can go the distance for you while working on the move.

Lightweight and compact, the DB74 boasts 5 hours battery life to keep you going while on short trips like the daily commute on the train or subway.

If you’re always on the move around your office, you need a laptop that moves with you. The DB74 offers 5 hours of battery life so you can swap desks as much as you like between charges.

Numeric Key Pad

Working with numbers is important to you, so we've made sure this laptop comes a full featured keyboard. 

Package that suits a Gamer

It oozes style while offering a combo of form and function that suits the needs of a serious gamer.
