Overview

The Sony Vaio VPCSA was a high end laptop released by Sony in 2011. It was intended to be a business/home laptop and offered most of the same features as the Z series but at a lower price.

The laptop has an all aluminium construction, which felt premium to the touch.

Daily Usage Today

The VPCSA is still usable today, and can be used for most tasks including non intensive or older games thanks to the discrete GPU (Sony really loves putting them in these small laptops). Unfortunately, the Sony drivers don't work on Windows 10 so you will need to use the modded Leshcatlabs drivers to get proper GPU switching functionality. It is strongly recommended to repaste the laptop as they tend to run extremely hot and loud and also upgrade to at least 8GB RAM.
