Any one is using this graphic card? I would like to enhance its performance in Vista 32bit or Xp SP2 32bit, any good driver to optimize its performance without lagging, quite disappointed with its original driver's performance... cant even play the Pro-evolution 2008 in 1024X768 resolution....@@

Is overclocking helps? how to do it without burning my laptop~~ btw, my specs is as below

Asus Z99sc C2D 1.66G, 2GB RAM, Geforce 8400M G 128MB Dedicated Memory Turbo Cache 768MB Shared Memory, current OS is Vista 32bit SP1... gonna use XP if fed-up~!

thanks a lot~~

hehe.. this is consider low-end specs.. i don't think you can play 3D game smoothly.. myself is using this dedicated GC as well.. i'm not playing any games.. so far so good..

i was trying to downclock my gc to save battery power.. now you wanna overclock your gc.. haha.. anyway you can try RivaTuner latest version.. you can overclock your GC there.. make sure overclock not more than 30%..

ha..yeah..u r right..i bought it a year ago.. though it is low-end spec but its still cost be a bomb..lol~

i m not heavy gamer, just play some sport games or arcade games when boring.. so, when i bought i wasnt look for high-end gc specs..its even expansive..

after i tried PE08 only i know it really can't go too far.. sigh...

bout the RivaTuner, izzit just a software for us to OC the GC without doing it in BIOS? does it requires any specific driver update?? i wont exceed 30% as i also dont wana burn my lappy... lol~

i m also using the same GC and I don't think it is suitable for games like Cod5 coz my laptp lag.
bsides, no use overclocking also because when overclock 3dmark 2005 just give abt 2300 points. very low
and laptop become very hot. besides this version of GC hav some prob with da gam of the processor. if too hot, glue will shift and then need to repair.
so no use overclock. I tried. U can try. but b careful..........

Hi,

You may use the latest forceware from nvidia, downloadable from www.nvidia.com/page/drivers.html or if you are feeling adventurous, try looking for the beta forcewares, however inf modding may be required for it to recognize your GC
