Damn I need to find a better rig fast. GTX570, desktop version mind you. But that one also see the resolution. I'm assuming it's for full HD.

Look at all my stars!! Senior Member 5,531 posts Joined: Feb 2009 From: Kajang, Selangor	I'm now tempted to max OC and benchmark my GT335M to see how it compares to these big boys.

I did it before, even over the limit to see how far it could go. But that was when it was still like 1 day old, so I could do a 1-to-1 exchange if anything went wrong.

I can bring my laptop around and game anywhere. I don't mind reducing my expectations but since I got what I paid for and more, no complaints there. No doubt the desktop is good for really intensive work but when I think about it, I felt like I wasted a lot of money on it since my laptop can do it just as well. Maybe I'll just use it as a Folding farm.

Look at all my stars!! Senior Member 5,531 posts Joined: Feb 2009 From: Kajang, Selangor	QUOTE(kailoonthedog @ May 16 2011, 01:56 AM) Alright this might abit out of topic , anyway compare gt540m and gt550m which one is better in terms of performance and for OC?? The GT550M would have more performance straight but in terms of OC capability, your mileage may vary. No 2 chips are the same so for some, the GT550M can OC way higher, for others it's the GT540M. QUOTE(GreaseMonkey90 @ May 16 2011, 03:18 AM) lol. hate to see a good gpu get burn. Even so, this GPU is so good at what it does already I'm actually running it underclocked.

Senior Member 5,531 posts Joined: Feb 2009 From: Kajang, Selangor	QUOTE(wilsonphua @ May 18 2011, 12:00 PM) » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « Alright, thanks for this. But actually, Black Ops can run smooth if we disable some of the graphic settings like shadows Thanks..so basically GT 520M = 100% GT 525M = 120% GT 540M = 140% GT 550M = 160% GT 555M = 180% No wonder my friend who owns an Acer Aspire 4750G with core i5 and GT520M has hard time playing new games like Hot Pursuit and Assassin's Creed on the other hand, my other friend has a Dell XPS15 with core i7 and GT435M, he can run games better than acer 4750G so.......GT435M > GT520M or do the Intel processors help in running games also? Actually, there's a big difference between Steam games and downloaded games. Steam games are Original games which you have to buy from the website, the games no need to have cracks and you can play multiplayer on it. Downloaded games from pirated websites need cracks and cannot play multiplayer... Like me, I bought the Call of Duty Black Ops for RM160 from Steam. I can play multiplayer. And Steam automatically helps to update my game, so that all the lag issues can be solved. Before this, I tried the pirated version of Black Ops on my laptop, it runs quite laggy. I bought the original, now it is really smooth... so, buy original if you have the money... Technically we take the GT540M as the point of reference since everyone is familiar with the performance. A rough but more accurate comparison based on Vantage GPU scores. GT520M = 40-45% GT525M = 80-90% GT540M = 100% GT550M = 110% GT555M 144 SP GDDR3 = 170% I got my Black Ops on Steam as well, when they were having 25% off! Steam sales are awesome.

I was about to get retail until I saw that 1 week promo. So just bought it at USD45. Good deal.

Senior Member 5,531 posts Joined: Feb 2009 From: Kajang, Selangor	QUOTE(wilsonphua @ May 27 2011, 05:49 PM) Verde Driver v275.27 for Nvidia Mobile Graphic Cards works very good. I can see a lot of improvement in FPS. Although it's under Beta version, you can take risk downloading and installing it. This is why I love the beta drivers. QUOTE(thieflord @ May 27 2011, 06:56 PM) tbh, crysis 2 has lower requirements than i expected Same requirements as Crysis. Awesome engine optimization.
