Not sure, but most people having the slight black bar problem and solve it by reducing the scaling to 0%...

It is pricier, battery life should be the same or similar...
It also go docking port, fingerprint, and better built...

Well, its a matter of settings, if its no blackbar, then no need to set it...

Here's a short post about the GPU/CPU temp while gaming.

I was playing NFS : Hot Pursuit for 15 mins inside an air-con room of 24 degree C while having the lappy raise up by inches.

Setting was as below :
1366x768
High Resolution Texture On
Motion Blur On
Shadow Level High (Highest)
Anisotropic On

Average FPS : 40-50 ( quite smooth overall, although sometimes will drop to 30++, rarely though)

Hope there will be more games for me to test~  thumbup.gif

i myself am using a keyboard protector, as i tend to have long nails, it slips on the keys / in some cases, might scratch away the letters on the keys LOL.

anyway, any PC shop should sell it, its just a sheet of silicon , i had to cut mine down to size to fit the 4820tg without covering the speaker or the touchpad though smile.gif



@leewhat ,

i have tried the guide u posted a few pages back smile.gif , thanks

sadly, after hours of fiddling with it, i gave up, the driver will not install as per the method he gave , guess ill be waiting for driver updates instead smile.gif


Thanks again for the guide, really appreciate the help biggrin.gif

Edit : Catalyst 11.2 seems to have crash problems, i keep getting ATI driver stopped responding , then the screen will hang and i have to restart... ill revert back to acer one tomorrow and see how it works

I have a question,

My WIFI powered on before I reach the logon screen. It doesnt connect to any network yet. I hope to disable it at startup, but still can be switch on thru Fn+F3.

IMO, having a wireless adapter switched on waste energy. biggrin.gif

Seems that the more i use it, the more i dislike acer's support ..

Now i'm doing web browsing , chatting. and the temperature of my 4820tg is 80c ...


Thinking of doing a full recovery , will the drivers be included in the recovery?
