    Hi there,

    I'm having some issues playing games on my laptop Aspire 6935G.
    I don't know if the laptop configuration is equal in all the world but here is my laptop Hardware:

    Core2Duo 2.4Ghz
    4Gb DDR3
    320GB
    Geforce 9600m GT 512MB dedicated

    I'm having slowdowns after 10/20 minutes playing games like COD World at War and Red Alert 3, and the fan wont stop... even with the games in minimal configuration... Anyone have a clue of this? a fix maybe? I've played COD 4 Modern Warfare and it never gave me this problems ever...

    Yep, throttle-problem. I had a similar with the 8930 - No problems with CoD 4, but when I played Crysis and Cod5 I got lag after 10 minutes. I didn't find a fix, so I swapped my computer to a new one.

    That episode teached be a lesson. If you want to game - then buy a desktop. If you are a casual gamer buy an average laptop.

    Right now I have the Acer Aspire 6930, and I'm very satisfied :D!

    You can do that and it will help, you could also look into getting an HD4650, I have never had slow down using that even OCed.
