@miloy
I feel for you bro...just received the lappy not to long ago already got problem ..ask them to change to S42 mobo

@dany
Well, maybe you can ask SC first..if you repair with other company, will it affect your warranty

Yup, better understand the terms first...and like everyone say, just afraid that the other shop would give you a cheapo LED-backlit LCD

So verdang is going for S57 ...he'll be regular here also ...

How's the quality...really got cut/downgrade a lot ..never tried any Full HD yet with mine

Well, for the samsung oceanic life video, 9600M GT can still handle it well using MPC-HC..but got downgraded a little, CPU maintained at 40% like that for me

Same goes with any player i guess...if it can rendered by the GPU, it will be rendered by GPU instead of CPU

Just like lee explained earlier...depends on which chipset

Can give use screenshots...or maybe some videos for it...try re-installed the graphic driver

O wai...btw astria...miloy just received his S41 for about a week time iirc ...just got out from SC, need to send it back just

btw astria...now surfing using Safari..from what i can see, my GPU temp seems to be higher while using Safari than FF, why?? ..does Safari uses the GPU for processing the image (as in Aero )...need some light yo...

@want
Better add at astria thread...well, can compare which is the best driver for S42 and also can do temp comparison also

Refer to first post ..there are a lot of things that you can try ...welcome to BenQ Thread...this is where Technology meets people

Added on February 5, 2010, 12:34 ambtw, what specs?? And how much did you bought it ..just wondering

This post has been edited by monza84: Feb 5 2010, 12:34 AM

Where did you buy it...RM2,2k...must be from ThunderMatch LYP ...well, P8700,320GB,2GB is a good buy also

Added on February 5, 2010, 12:59 amwell, if you want to take a chance of trying latest drivers and all, go ahead...its will work wonder ..

NFS:Shift should be no problem playing it with high/mid setting...mine can play without lag mid-setting ..about latest games, i think if set to middle range, still playable

This post has been edited by monza84: Feb 5 2010, 12:59 AM

For this price range, its really is a good buy for gaming ..well, most games are playable

Still new ma, send for warranty lor...for DVD-Drive, if got stick sure will on the spot change one, no need wait..but better call first ask got stock or not

aiyo..morning still sleepy, that's why typo

@double
Will give feedback after done downloading

This is a bit high i think..usually its around 90~92C for me ..maybe you can suck out the dust from the venting area...maybe clogged already

how come ..mine same setting as yours...all high, AA 2x, AF 12x...the highest temp is 94C ...maybe because playing in air con room

Added on February 5, 2010, 9:52 amIf blow air con direct to laptop can decreased the temp to 89C liao
