hey dude do you have the link to a guide to all benchmark for all the mobile graphics card?

Got any benchmark for Crysis?

Nope. I don't aware of that cuz this topic is mainly for us to submit our own benchmarks. If you got, just post here anything related.

Not at the moment from me. Hope that other forumers with powerful laptops will contribute to this topic. Although I personally will try to run a Crysis on my girly machine later.

This is what i found a while ago before i bought my Vostro .. might wanna take a look.. if you are looking for more info on other stuffs relatied to GC try exploring the site.. Good luck

Here's the link http://www.notebookcheck.net/Mobile-Graphi...List.844.0.html

Anyway Thanx for the effort on benchmarking those games TS.. kinda intrested in Dreamfall.. might wanna check it out.. and a GC for rm4000???

I think u got confused. The GPUS (note the S) mentioned were 8800gtx in SLi, with each WILL costs somewhere around RM 2000. Some of us are still eagerly waiting for it to launch.

i think ur machine can't run le

whats the reason kenot run? the GC, proc or RAM ?

I know my machine is girly, but I don't have an exact verdict whether it can run Crysis or not. For benchmarking , optimal playable FPS is at 30 frame persec. Probably my machine will run slideshow. Anyway my brother has got the game and I'll try to do benchmark later, not for my own enjoyment but rather to provide a concrete info for fellow LowYatians without resorting to baseless assumptions here and there.

This week I'm ready to benchmark these games:
Doom 3 Resurrection Of Evil
Tron 2.0
Grand Theft Auto: Vice City
Tomb Raider Legend
The Chronicles Of Riddick: Escape From Butcher Bay (this one is an awesome game!)

Ha ha answer lor

Yup I have to agree with HellRyzer. I have been asked way too much, "can my laptop run Crysis on high settings? on med settings at least?" or "Can my laptop run StarCraft 2?" The only answer is as simple as running the game on the laptop like what HellRyzer been doing for us now. Do game benchies will help a lot of potential notebook buyers and GAME buyers as well. I know some of us get a copy of ahem ahem for free, so I believe this thread could help more of us than we can ever imagine (with 3 second pause there..)

Ow.. my bad.. forgot it is SLi which means 2 GCs.. Still expensive worr

Would be good, if, let's say there was 3 games you would choose to benchmark, then other's can benchmark towards those games as well. (because benchmark would mean a certain sort of uniformity anyway)

Eg: Bioshock, World in Conflict, (insert random graphic demanding game here)
I know demos sometimes don't take into account SLi, (Bioshock), but then again how many of us are looking for SLi laptops.

So who's the one that will do the SLi benchies?

Gaza sup it has been awhile since I last see u. Did u know my m9700 has r.i.p? It's very long long story. It isn't the bad story about a company, it's actually a great news (at least for me). 8800m gtx is waiting for me...

The main issue would be one guy got the game while other guy can't get it yet. I think the most feasible technique for forumers is to submit whatever benchies and screenies that they can (even games that have been benchmarked before in this topic) using the guidelines in the first post under this topic. 1 post equals to 1 game benchmark with relevant machine spec used during that said benchies. If some of you guys want to collaborate in benchmarking, that's a nice initiative too by the way.

For example, let's say I'll handle mostly yesteryears games because my machine spec is a budget type. Whereas derred would handle mostly current cream DirectX10 games since his machine is da' beast. Also anybody with laptop using graphic other than NVIDIA wants to submit benchies / screenies please post everything here in this topic.

hm... considering I have RM7000 in my disposal now... what sort of gaming machine (laptops) can I get???


My PC spec now is as in my signature.. but it is really damn hard to take it to my college and vice versa... really annoying lerr... so big. Thinking of selling my PC and buy a laptop instead... but I wanna make sure that I can still play my games exactly as how I'm enjoying it in my current rig now...

Your gaming specific question is very welcomed in this topic.

Locally, Dell XPS M1730 suits you best.
http://www1.ap.dell.com/content/products/p...dhs1&l=en&s=dhs

Or if you want Alienware, ask fellow forumer derred on how to get one. Only consider NVIDIA GeForce 8700M and above for your hardcore gaming needs.

but i thot XPS M1730 cost slightly less than RM 8k?

with a budget of RM7k, i dun think can get Alienware lea...

You're right about that. But I assume he's a hardcore gamer due to his desktop specs so I won't suggest mainstream or performance level graphics to him as outline by this post:

Quick Guide: NVIDIA GeForce Laptop Graphics
http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopi...post&p=14210842

He should opt for a GeForce 8700M or above. I could suggest an Asus G1S (prices at RM 6,988 or less depend on stores), but then it only sports GeForce 8600M GT which is not *meeting* the requirement of such a hardcore gamer type. But for most of mainstream / moderate gamer type on a budget (including me), even GeForce 8400M is enough for playing games at this level.

First of all pardon me as I really have little knowledge of the pricing of gaming laptops. Very used to the desktop segment so usually I will think that RM4000 to RM5000 will already be enough to build a really good gaming machine. So I might be a little misled about information regarding gaming laptops... will help you guys help in clarifying stuff for me .


The DELL XPS M1730... sports a 8700M GT graphics along with 2GB DDR2 RAM. But with a monitor with resolution of 1920x1200 (that's huge man). My current monitor sports a 1680x1050 resolution with a 8800GTS 320MB.

Considering 8800GTS is more powerful than 8700M GT.. wouldn't playing in a resolution such as 1920x1200 be quite laggy??

The price range is quite OK.. RM 7,799.. though due to my unfamiliarness of the price range of gaming laptop.. I'm quite shock to see the price . But I guess I can top-up a little.


Only that... is 8700M GT is good enough for my gaming needs


And this Alienware machine... how can I get it and what about warranty purpose??

Yerp... can consider I'm in the enshusiast segment of gaming.

Usually a laptop with at least 8800GTS or 8800GTX.. how much is the price??? Can I get it in Malaysia??

I'm glad to help. But I think you should wait for a new Dell XPS in the forthcoming months in order to secure your investment with a GeForce 8800M (the perfect choice for hardcores). Currently there's no offer on this card from Dell, except if you count in Dell's Alienware (overseas). The price is relatively high as usual since laptop parts are much smaller and contain unique design to accomodate a small space. Although I can't really say about the performance comparison with desktop companion parts; it might scores slightly lower cuz of underclocked nature of laptop gaming graphics.

But who has the stamina to hug your monster desktop rig to frends' house or LAN parties etc? That's why laptop gaming habit is unique and true gaming laptops are a luxury.

About hi-res gaming, GeForce 8700M and above can handle that at ease since they have larger dedicated RAM. This info is from NVIDIA and I'll post other statistics later.
