O mai...what a day..just now playing BS2, with the setting that i posted before and with 197.25 driver, guess what...this driver is not recommendable for BenQ S42...played BS2 for almost 40min, what i get...a total shutdown ...yes, OVERHEAT SHUTDOWN guys, my GPU temp was @ 109C before the laptop took the miraculous step of shutting down ...o mai, wai is this ...was so into the game that i dun check the heat ...

haha, no need for Alt+F4...Alt+Tab will do ...well, if got time, for now maybe i revert back to Dox 195.62 or 185.85, see which can give me the lowest temp while playing ...and will do some heatsink mod if i open up, already got the heatsink available at some of the computer shops in Kuching

Yup, and i've already seen the heatsink myself...your guess was right, for 14" laptop its kinda a little big ...but you can use sand paper to thin it down to a smaller size ...from the look of it, can be done ..

haha, well that's the problem...later i check if got any that can fit perfectly for 14" one...because last time i see got various of size also ..

Added on April 15, 2010, 11:49 amok, installing Dox 185.85 now..and will stress the GPU again later ..maybe can peaked @110C

haha, i think got lots of dust in my laptop...just play BS2, 100C max out through out playing ...Dox 185.85 seems to be the lowest in temp, tried 195.62, 10 minutes straight out 99C , then up to 105C ...gonna stick with 185.85 for now ..

I think so too...maybe later i check see if the vent really got dusty & the air can't properly out-flowed ..

Sarawak very hot these days i tell you..but the strange thing is, i play BS2 in air-conditioned room but still get the temp that i mention earlier...then i change back to 185.85, the temp lowered to 99C max out through out the game ...how leh, you i cannot compare one as you in UK ...

Why is this ...try to find some time to dismantle my S42

Yup, Acer is slimmer and easier to carry around (envying those with Timeline Series seems to be really easy to carry their laptop around)..My S42 seems way heavy ...

I tot Y460 i5 540M is RM3599 ...even hikari85 selling @RM3530 ...

@astria
Can consider dun have BenQ laptop also ...

Added on April 25, 2010, 11:42 pmAgree with astria with this one, if the price is RM3.6~3.7k then just topup a bit and get N82Jv ...just my POV

Btw, anything new from BenQ...seems like BenQ are focusing on monitor these days

Added on May 7, 2010, 2:26 pmJust an update, change my GC driver from 195.62 to 185.68...i got to say, 185.68 need to be more concern about the temp as just now i play ACII, my temp reached 107C and no shutting down ...

This post has been edited by monza84: May 7 2010, 04:31 PM

haha ^^..you Dackson ...about your Dv6, how low can you bargained with

@BBX
Yup, typo..its ACII ...well, for now that's the best i can get

I play @ native res and other setting are default ..no change ....mia?? who is??

They put a G behind the model and BOOM, one new model from Acer ..but lee, they upgrade the size also

Yup, there's a Mobile Portal of LYN for Mobile one ..haven't test it yet, maybe later

Yup, should be as all the other models with G comes with Integrated GC ..well, maybe you can opt for that one but its 15" lor

Added on May 7, 2010, 8:22 pmBut i read your siggy before and still now, you want 3820TG ...well, that's one is
