QUOTE(nik1993 @ Aug 9 2012, 07:02 PM) mind sharing what's Turion X2 about? lately feel lazy to google...  hope u didn't mind to share your knowledge  The Turion X2 is a dual core AMD CPU series, it's one of the earlier generations of AMD multicore CPUs in the market and always had a heat issue hence why nowadays people tend to label AMD's chips are hot and unreliable.

Swt why is the topic moved. I want to know the laptop expereince of dota2 users. Now its becoming a debate between graphics card and CPU .
I was hoping there are users in the Dota thread that would justify my questions.
The turion x2 is a very old CPU not worth mentioning. ANyway, thanks for the feedback guys and i'd appreciate more to come

Since Dota 2 is a real-time strategy game, the CPU would matter quite a bit isn't it?
Running everything at max at 768p, with 6770M and i7-2630qm. But there was once I turned off turbo boost, and there seems to be stutters when there's a huge team fight.
Extremely smooth with Boost on though. I shall test it with Boost off for a couple more times. Might have been a connection issue.

DotA 2 doesn't really rely as much on the CPU than the GPU because it's not a full fledged RTS. Having a high base speed is better in this case but you don't need so many cores.

ANyway, thanks for the feedback guys and i'd appreciate more to come Since HD7730M is slightly faster than HD6770M, u make ur judgement base on that no? Btw, u planning to play Dota 2 with Max out setting@1080 resolution? HD7730M won't be able to deliver 60fps imo.

AMD Turion X2 + aluminium chasis = mobile frying pan.

Sure they may not be as powerful as their Intel counterparts but comparatively as mobile solutions, very decent in their own right.

QUOTE(igmroey @ Aug 9 2012, 06:40 AM) Wow thanks... V1n0D if u dont mind... how about during battles like 5v5 clashes where all the spells and details are casted. My current laptop is a x2 turion RM-72, with HD3200 . Its max settings with high fps of 50. But it screen will freeze for 1-3 seconds during war. This defeats the purpose of playing dota because that few seconds is the most important time.... So i dont want that happen to my new lappie >< But i haf a feeling that won't happen ? haha Btw, what laptop are you using ? Toshiba Qosmio F60. Roughly 2 years old. QUOTE(Ivan113 @ Aug 9 2012, 01:08 PM) GT330M>GT520M? mine is i5 2.4ghz GT520M 8GB Ram, and the framerate is 25-40 at maximum settings Taktaulol, your GC should outperform mine any day of the week. Framerate does drop after a couple of games, but I always attributed that to the GC heating up.

yes i plan to play it at FULL SETTINGS 1080P . Sadly i can't find out the answer unless there are Dell15RSE users in the house.
mudkipryan. Whats the FPS whilst playing dota2. Any sudden drops from lets say 50 to 30 during team fights ? Even if its just a minor 0.5 seconds. Does that happen ?

I don't think you can do that.. and i don't think even GT650M can do that.

i had the hp dv3z till it die on me recently (cpu kaput based on the LED error code). Dota 2 is playable on turion x2 + hd3200 provided you turn down ALL settings and put your render quality to low. It looks horrible imo much worse than regular dota... side note, the hd7670m can max this game out at 1366 x768 no problems. max temps is 80 without cooler. not bad... not great either.

max out with no problem and max out with 60fps while having a huge team fight is 2 different things.
