QUOTE(positronmaster @ Jul 26 2009, 11:42 PM) NO, I never mention anything like so. Just disable the onboard GPU and use the HD 4570 instead, you free up some system RAM too, the HD 4570 saves a lot of energy too when idle, the clockspeed and its voltage is very low in desktopQUOTE(syahpian @ Jul 26 2009, 11:38 PM) i think what he mean is the games he play cannot full scaling on win 7.. cause ati have some problem in scaling for full screen gaming in the new windows version. Yeah I got that too, but its better to have it run on its aspect ratio than have it stretched and looks ugly |

QUOTE(Batusai @ Jul 26 2009, 11:50 PM) Whatever the driver you use, I advise you to disable it IF you got problem with switching between GPU.

HD3200 consumes less power...
wat he meant was that HD4570 dun consume that much power compared to HD3200 (afterall, it's still a low end card... how much power can it suck???) |

QUOTE(positronmaster @ Jul 27 2009, 12:02 AM) Currently I use the driver from the CD, I've tried DNA before, not much difference. It supposed to have some tweaks over official driver, but the main reason why I put it there is because the official driver from ATi/AMD DOES NOT support Mobility cards |
