i want to ask, if we update the driver, is it will surely increase its performance...? u know, the hardware is there, so should the performance... but how just by updating the software/driver, the performance can be improve whereas the hardware is still the same old hardware...?

as bro lee posted b4, gt 435 should be better 5730 once the new driver update available... but now, 5730>gt435...

this might be a silly qtion from me... uhuh... ^^

you can go to Nvidia Official website and see the page to download the latest driver.

they will stated the marked increment in performance for most of the games and especially for highlighted, latest games. its not increase in physical performance, its more on optimization to apply on game's engine.

does anyone know how good is the HD550v?

HD550v is rebranding of ATi 4 Series.

usual trick to finish the old product. so can't expect much for that GPU.

any rumors on ati 6xxx mobile series near future...? the 5xxx almost reach a year isnt...?

yes. M17x-R3 is the one that will equipped with ATi HD6870 and ATi HD6970.

Other rumour might be Acer 3820TG with HD6370M/HD6550M, Acer 4738G with HD6370M and Asus K52Jt with HD6370M...

thx for the answer man.. ^^

i really hope this time acer release the 3820 series in MY...

btw how about the performance of the 6550 compared to the existing 5650/5730.. still cant find it in nbc n other review website...

Still unknown..

can't compare since its not released, yet

i see... so for now, only ati 5730 is the best existing gpu in a notebook 14" and below isn't it...?or there are other...?

not really sure.... but this can be a very good reference

@ http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/1363185

from that list, i think it's a yes... hehe

n what is the significant of having high shader speed...? is it for the better AA...?

as i can see from nbc, 5730 with shader speed 650 mHz while the gt435 with shader speed of 1300 mHz... is there a big gap btween them...?

i am currently using 260.99 version of Nvidia driver.

but when i access Nvidia Control Panel > Update Your System Driver > Check, once again its shows 260.99 is available to download.

its mean that the updater did not check the preexisting version and directly shows the latest driver?

checked and its proven that Nvidia Updater did not check preexisting version before providing the answer.
