just bought my laptop at 1999. just open i and i check my graphic card. WHY IS IZZIT WRITTEN HD3200??? i tought it should be HD4570???
*
default bios setting is powerxpress mode. which will use the 3200 when not gaming and will use 4570 when gaming. if u want to use only hd4570. change in the bios setting to dgpu. k40ab comes with hd4570 and integrated ati 3200.


Added on September 23, 2009, 9:59 pmi suggest use dgpu and install catalyst control centre and enable ati power play. it will downclock the hd4570 depends on how u set it. instead of changing cards...hd4570 produce better picture quality.

if i set it to that will it consume lots of battery??? can i change everytime i wan?

mod the latest catalyst driver.
modder and guide: http://www.driverheaven.net/modtool.php
latest catalyst: http://game.amd.com/us-en/drivers_catalyst.aspx

then install. enable ati power play in catalyst control centre. set it when using battery maximum battery life. then it will downclock hd4570 to save battery. better this way than using powerxpress changing gpu and etc....ati power play will downclock to lowest graphic needed.220MHz~300MHz(default is 680MHz).

the best thing using ati power play is even when u on dc power it will also downclock to a needed graphic clock.(maximum performance/maximum battery life setting)

so if ur not gaming ur gpu will not run at its full speed. lower the heat.^^

actually if u want the most stable driver u can get it from the asus download site. asus has updated to the latest driver. keep in mind latest driver is not the best driver. the most stable driver is the best driver.

High q, low fps. 4570 is just intermediate level card.

Good news guys, finally found a program that can OC 4570.
AMD GPU CLOCK TOOL

* OC at your own risk

Nice nice, finally something to drugged up our 4570.

@ 700/600mhz...

From my testing, 600mhz(for memory) is the max. that should be your gauge

3dmark06= 3300 from 3000  smile.gif

why windowns 7 cannot play games full screen??? warcraft and nfs also cannot. anyone got this problem or me only????
*
for nfs just load ur profile and all and press esc to go to the menu>>>options>>graphic preference>>resolution>>use 1280x720 or 1366x768.

for warcraft. go to start>>type regedit then enter>>hkey_current_user>>software>>Blizzard Entertainment>>Warcraft III>video>>change resheight to 768 make sure u click decimal then u put 768. and reswidth to 1366, make sure u click decimal 1st.(doing this will keep the aspect ratio of the game.if u do other methods ur warcraft 3 will be streched.. which is sucks)

how do you test whether yours can OC max up to 756mhz core 531mhz memory? I oso wana try OC my U80V. What is the recommended setting for U80V? after I OC , will it increase the load and temperature of ATI 4570?
*
u need to test urself. when ocing u need stability. for me the temperature does not increase. but if u oc more maybe it will increase just a bit.

hi, just bought my K40AB in sunway 2 days ago and i installed xp and followed the steps provided by these two line in the first page.

"If you have difficulty installing XP, read this guide

Driver download:

Download latest driver for K40AB/K50AB from ASUS here"

please bear with me as its my first time installing...

do i need to download the Mobility HD 4570 driver DNA modded driver? even after i already installed the VGA driver provided by ASUS? (i also installed the CCC found in the VGA driver folder).

and GothFebrio, regarding your post #2084 on warcraft 3 fix. if i dun have the mobility modded will it work?

and lastly do i really need to install the modded driver.. cos i dont know its real function.. 

sorry if this is answered in earlier post.. i read till 30+ and all was talking about heat problem which i find perfectly OK! my sis Acer is worse...
*
if u have windows 7 u dont really need modded driver. because there is windows update to install the card for u.
yes the warcraft fix should work.

Ello...I also just bought a K40AB at AOnePlus RM1899 onli (cheaapp).  tongue.gif So far so good on games at 1024x600 medium/high settings, no AA (Resident Evil 5, Batman), getting an average of 30fps.  But then donno y performance on Need for Speed Shift is slowwww (medium)..when changing settings to low the game crashes after starting a race...Updated to the modified Catalyst 9.9 even worst, cannot start =/....Anybody else tried NFS Shift on K40/K50AB?

Oh, and another thing...The Catalyst 9.9 driver doesn't seem to come with lower wide screen resolutions (1024x600 for example) so I was wondering if there was anyway to add it into the driver? Anybody know of a solution on it? Thx
*
dunno about the resolution. but modded driver sucks. seriusly sucks. my suggestion is mod the driver install it. just to get the catalyst control centre. then update ur gpu using windows update. the driver from windows update far more stable. no hangs/crashes.
