he's correct....

of course it's the weather. Do you know how hot the whether is right now. Even the night is hot.
You should now what kind of material they used to make the palm rest......

i just ran The Witcher 2 on the latest Nvidia driver.........and it sucks
I have not try the previous driver but the latest driver claim they fix the low performance issue for The Witcher 2.
I put the settings to high and disabled blurs, shadow medium, off vsync and the FPS i got i would say is around 5-10 i might have put it too high
anyways, after exiting the game, my desktop start screwing up. The windows taskbar at the bottom became blue and not transparent anymore . Also the blue and white light keeps blinking. The only way to solve this is by restart.
Dam this game gives me lots of headache.
Btw, playing crysis 2 on high with the latest driver is smooth all the way

confirm HW Monitor not on. Optimus is just screwing up.

Anyway, it is High. Very high also quite smooth except for certain parts la. Somehow high does not feel like low graphics.
advance, gamer and hardcore did you dl the latest patch????

if wan NFS Shift GT540M can support la if Shift 2 better go for DV 6
If u wan ur laptop to last for 5 yrs, i suggest u getting a i7 to be future proof. Plus if ur using photoshop, im sure ur gonna multitask. i7 quad core is perfect for the job. Not only that, using photoshop im sure ur gonna need extra RAM. 4GB or 8GB isn't enough as claim by some ppl.
FYI, N53SV i5 can add up to 8gb while the i7 N53SV can add up to 16gb.

If you really really wan ur laptop to last for 5 yrs, either find a N53SN+GT550M@RM3299 or get the DV6 without the headphones

Also seeing your budget is RM2900, the other alternative is getting the Lenovo Y470, i7-2630QM + Nvidia GT550M + JBL speakers@RM2999

the previous y460p got so called "problems" with switchable graphics.
Anyway, the y470 is using Nvidia Optimus so there wont be any serious issue. Plus, the design of the y470 looks appealing
The JBL speaker is actually slightly above average compared to those Altec Lansing or THX speakers on budgets laptop.

Like i said, since ur budget really cannot go above RM3k, then y470 is the most suitable choice cause it comes with Nv GT550M
But the quality of the laptop is questionable la

dam great investment
i might do the same after 2 years

but yea it would void warranty. Best to change everything back before send for RMA.

@my_nickleo
please to some battery test, we would like to know the battery life




It's advise not to OC your laptop GPU cause OC obviously increase the GPU temp and it might wear off the thermal paste. Also, OCing your GPU could degrade its life. I have seen ppl saying that their procs could last 3-4yrs longer than their GPU. Plus the GPU is solder to the mobo, so if GPU die......time to get a new laptop

sry but had to bring some bad news
Even ATi/AMD is going auto ......might be bad news for you
It is called AMD PowerXPress 4.0 aka BACON(short for "Bus Alive Chip Off Now!" for now). Most probably AMD will release an update for current GPU...or it might only be available for future GPU

if cannot get N53SN then go for Dv 6
If you can wait, maybe go for N55SF. The specs and the features are really but design le.........

MSE

Recommended by many ppl, MSE is good enough and light. Also MSE really improve itself alot compared to last year

Yes N53SN has a built in microphone

For me i got 43secs only cause i have a Seagate HDD

anyway, why don't you download BootTimer and post your boot up time here
