from my experience i tested the drviers from the cd,from asus download site,modded 9.9, and windows update driver. windows update driver is the best. no lags, it scores more on windows experience index and 3dmark06.

btw. i just bought WD scorpio black 320gb to replace my seagate 5400.5 320gb. been using it for a day. it sure is faster than 5400rpm disk. u can feel it spins faster(on my f81se, K40ab/k50ab will not feel it i think) . but not that obvious. comparing with 5400rpm disk things loads much faster now. on windows experience index score my hdd from 5.5 now its 5.9. 3dmark score increase from 3400 to 3500. dont think it will change anyting ingame except itll load faster.

temperature of hd4570 on my f81se is almost the same. 60-65C idle and surfing net. and 88-90 when full load.

Wha...? I run all those 3DMark test from 2001SE right up to Vantage, it runs fine. What's up it won't run on lappy user_Xp? If even Crysis can run well, why not those synthetic benchmark? I have finished tons of game on this lappy, Quake4, Doom3, Crysis Warhead, and Tom Clancy H.A.W.X

my bad..just want to scared him only..
btw,benchmarking using laptop are more slower than the desktop... sweat.gif

I think it can even support ZM CPU. But its bloody hard to find, and expensive. I found some at eBay but costs as much as RM7XX+ for the 2.4GHz model (the top model is 2.5GHz)

if cost around RM7xx..
better i spend that money on other things brows.gif
