I realize that I can't change the GPU of the Dell laptops, BTW I am using the online customization. Is there a big difference between
256MB NVIDIA® GeForce® 8600M GT vs NVIDIA® GeForce 8400M GS with 128MB GDDR2 dedicated graphic memory

the fan is most probably working if u can feel hot air coming out of the vent. the problem is that the heatsink and fan have been clogged with dust, causing very high temperatures at little load. happened to me once.

I think there are some guides on upgrading GPU somewhere in the net. But do it after warranty over la.

I have played it, over and over again. The graphics are outstanding, i did post the images in V1 Thread. This is one game that are rich on 3D animations. I can get more than 40fps most of time during Battle scene. This post has been edited by elwwmatrix: Sep 30 2008, 12:52 PM
