League Of Legends / test drive 2

Hi i just recieved my M14x on friday with the following settings
i7 2670
gt555m 1.5gb
750 gb HDD 7200 RPM
6gb ddr3 1600mhz ram

i overclocked to 700/1080 and im still getting poorish results. first of all i cant even play test drive 2 on low. its choppy and i get fps lag. When i go on youtube i see a M11x running the same game on high without any problem? is their something im missing out on? i have the latest Nvidia Drivers. Also for league of legends its not so bad but i get slowish loading speeds. like the same as my friend who has a bad computer . anything i can do to speed that up except of course getting a SSD

 

SSD won't actually speed up your framerates at all. I bet that you haven't whitelist the LOL.exe file. Just follow the guide in my sig and you should be good to go

 

Alright thanks io trythat once i get home! Any idea for test drive?

 

I'd try whitelisting that as well and that should fix the problem. Another thing you could try is updating your graphics card drivers.

 

Uhmm i got the latest ones from the website

 

That's strange. LoL loads and plays fine on Max settings for me. No special tweaking involved.

Latest Drivers
i7-2670
8GB DDR3-1600
3GB GT55M
SSD

Only having the 1.5GB GT555 shouldn't hurt you, nor would only having 6GB RAM. Only real difference is I put an SSD in mine.

 

I load fine but i was maybe expecting it to be faster. its the same as my old computer if not slower. and my other pc had intel duo quad core. 6gb ram and a nvidia 9500 gs nothing special. But im more concerned about test drive :\

 

Something is definitely wrong, I get a smooth 60FPS (I capped it to that). When you updated your drivers, did you check "Clean Install"? That helps clear out anything that might have broken.

 

did you try whitelisting the .exe files for both games?

 

Just tried it didint change anything but then i ran the game as administrator and now i can run it on Very high all settings without problem! havnt tried league of legends tough il try it later tonight and keep you guys updated. thanks!

 

glad to see you got it all fixed. Now go shred some noobs

 

uhmm league of legends loading is still slower then my friend but wtv i guess il deal with it!

 

do you have anything running in the backround that would impact HD read speeds? if its a loading issue, it means the hard drive is the bottleneck most of the time.
