    Hi everyone

    i just wanted to share this with every 5920G owner

    To show what it can really do!!..

    The name of the game is Flatout-2

    I tried the demo only (i wanted to buy it but couldnt find it... :( )

    you can get it from any site that lets you download demos like Gamershell

    Ok lets start with the photos:

    First Pic shows the setting which i used, as you see all option to high only the antialiasing which you can increase but you should overclock your card to get smooooth fps...i think

    [​IMG]


    By the way i played it with overclocking


    Now for choosing cars:

    In game screen shots:

    I wanted also to say that the game runs extra extra smoooooooooooooth with everything happening around you with no single drop in fps...nothing

    All the above are taken with no antialiasing...i tried it with 4x and it runs smooth but i think some overclocking is needed.

    I really advise everyone to try it...I know its not a new game but its worth it

    Also the demo is like 450MB only ...

    Plus this game works good while games like NFS runs like ****....

    Thats show what good programming can do...Not only hardware is important

    Like HL-2 also

    Also another demo to try is stanglehold....which also runs like a charm

    I compared the graphics to my Xbox360 version and they are very very close to each other

    But the demo wieghts 2 GB....(the full game is like 14 GBs...WTF?)

    I will try to take some screen shot for it...tomorrow maybe...

    Now i reeeeaaaaaaly love my Acer ...

    What about you guys?!

    Hi there

    im using 165.01_vista_32 driver best performance for me + you can overclock it

    You can use RivaTuner 2.04, this the program i use

    About NFS i tried most wanted only (I think it has the same engine for carbon)

    And i can tell the game runs like S***

    If you dont want to hate your laptop (which you shouldnt) dont try that game

    Instead try Flatout 2...it really is a good game + runs at highest + no fps drop

    NFS Most wanted works perfect on my 5920 @ 1024x768 Medium AA & AF But other settings High

    It works well with 163.69 /158.45/162.50/163.44/163/67

    What?!

    Are you sure?

    I tried the game with many drivers...no deference

    Where could the problem be....

    I only got it playable at all options to min....why is that

    while games like flatout 2 was playable at high

    By the way did you try flatout 2.....belive me nfs nothig compared to it
