when i try to adjust the volume via the FN keys on my M11X, nothing appeared on-screen to tell me the volume level, but the volume is still adjustable. is this normal?

thanks for the reply.

but isn't it a little weird? i think even a RM999 netbook would show me a volume OSD whenever i adjust it, let alone an Alienware lappie.

is there any way to make something appear? only when i use the FN key to mute that i get some sort of "display" telling me it's on mute.

its worth every single cent ! laugh.gif

unless your usage is HD video editing or Photoshop, its not suit you. the CPU is sorta weak for those kind of job.

M11X seems to excel on more GPU intensive games,but how about BFBC2 which is more to CPU?

Does M11X runs it well?

just did BFBC2 for 3 hours straight. CPU temp stays at 46 max while GPU at 51 max.

got 20-35 fps for settings as below:

- details and textures on high
- shadows and effects on low
- AA 1x, HBAO & VSync off.
- DX9 and resolution at 1280 x 720.


will try it out with DX10 and lower settings later on. for now, am enjoying the game a lot! wink.gif

*same avg fps on DX10. hovers around 25-30 most of the time.


QUOTE
ADD-ON:
to add, the game is perfectly playable, except some dips during intense gunfire/detailed environment. (+-17 minimum)

merelly small noticeable differences in fps if all on low hence i've decided to go for all high except for effects and shadows.

here's the numbers from someone on NBR:

*do take note of the min and avg fps.
okay I ran on all lows and not much improvement.. only 1.5FPS gain seen.. updated my original BFBC2 benchmark.

just benched on high graphcal details and high textures.. only avg of 1FPS drop.. lol

edited my post some more with 4 quick runs over the same area, testing out effects, details, and textures each separately.

now from a save point I walked through an area toward the beginning of a cutscene, maybe just a 15-20second walk. All runs are the same from here on down.

detail high, textures high, shadows low, effects high
Min Max Avg
22 38 31.137
--
detail low, textures low, shadows low, effects high
Min Max Avg
29 46 37.442

details high, textures low, shadows low, effects low
Min Max Avg

details low, textures high, shadows low, effects low

Thanks a lot.

I can start saving for one then,or something similar.

The frame rates isnt very high,though. BF3 will kill M11X.
