... because you guys say it runs hot...


Added on February 10, 2009, 9:16 pmif it runs hotter and performance-wise not very much compared to 3200, i'd rather go for cooler and cheaper setup. does this makes sense?

no.

smile.gif then can you really tell how much performance difference when you use 3200 and 3450 in your games? from the website that someone posted earlier, it doesnt look like the performance differs by much at all.

to put it in a clearer way, can someone tell what games that 3450 can handle but 3200 cannot?
*

just go get cq40-310au already.

thank you, dude, but again, the link you gave me is not giving a definitive answer. One person is saying yeaaaa 3450 kicks 3200 ass, and yet another is saying naaah, not much difference at all.

so again i'll have to reiterate my question: what games that 3200 cannot play that 3450 can, and how hot is 133ax vs 310au?  rolleyes.gif
*

1. none. they're using the same core.
2. probably 5-10c higher. not all the heat contributed by 3450.
3. just buy whatever you want.

Yup you are right, HP is selling it for RM1999. The price on their website is not updated though.

maybe they bought their stock when the price is at 2099. yes, it's obvious, but still i'm bored and need to post something

Is this the same version selling at last PC Fair for RM1500. If I remembered correctly it is 133AX and my wife just bought 126AX at RM2k++ a month or so earlier.

nope. that was another inferior model. i can't recall but if you scroll a hundred post earlier, you might be able to solve your curiousity

How come the hd3450 isn't reaching its max core clock of 500 even when im gaming? it reaches only 250 if i turn off powerplay or not, anybody knows why? maybe compaq limit the speed? or just my machine? im using the 133ax model btw.
*

er, how did you know while you're gaming, it only reaches 250Mhz? i've checked and it seems that our HD3450 boot with 500Mhz

Something wrong. I suggest u reinstall driver. If video card is faulty, you wont get display so i think driver problem. Can you post some screenshots?

could you kindly check yours too? because mine also maxed at 250Mhz.

i believe windows 7 fixed this. it even changes the default sound output when i connect the bluetooth headset and no need to restart the application to listen the sound at the headset. this doesnt happen in vista..

nope. this is a known hardware issue with compaq lappie. something to do with its connector near the jack
