Motor oil question....

So after noticing that my new used car's engine was 1/2 quart low, I topped it off with some 5w-30 dino oil...realizing after I did that that I hadn't checked what the previous owner had been using I went and checked the service records. He had castrol syntec 10w-30 put in at every oil change.

My question is, is syntec a full synthetic? I'd rather just use regular 5w-30 dino oil as per infiniti's recommendation, not a big believer in synthetics hype.
