finally after a month and 62 pages..i decided to get myself 4820TG i5-480M, HD6550M from digital mall...rm2700 with 3 years warranty,

quite tempted to get asus with the same price because of it i7 but with only HD4200..so i have to go with 4820TG...

Did anyone over here bought 4820TG or 3820TG from Evernew in PJ Digital Mall? They say warranty's price can't be deduct, it's fix. Is it true?

can i disable switchable graphic so only 6550 graphic is use able, because currently after i change to discreet mode in BIOS, only Intel graphic available...

i need to determine whether my GC is faulty because after playing with NFS shift or counterstrike source for around 30mins, the screen will freeze...can't be because overheat as max. temperature is around 80°C only

Discrete mode should only have ATi running...
With only Intel HD, people has been trying to do that laugh.gif

that's strange, i'll try doing it again later tonight, last night after choosing discrete mode, HWmonitor couldn't pickup any temperature sensor from ATi or shown that i'm using ATi graphic card, that's why i tot i'm on intel HD so i didn't bother to try any games..

After you change to Discreet, the only GC is ATI not Intel. Something not right here! Note that if this is first time you change to Discreet, you need to install driver from AMD.com website first. Use Catalyst 11.2.

ya, first time i change to discreet mode, maybe that could be the reason, later will try install latest driver..

80C for GPU is high for 30 mins of playing, but should not freeze the screen. Most freeze, crash problem can be solved using latest Catalyst driver.  wink.gif

that's max. temperature recorded by Hwmonitor...i'm not sure whether it's always constantly at that temperature, demn, i hope it's not becos of hardware problems..
