Do i have low fps on m15x

This is getting very furstrating. I am currently playing the witcher, Mass effect, and GTA4 and all are running at 23-33 fps on 1080p. These games are kind of old so do u think i should be running these games at a hight fps. I just recently downloaded the new nvidia driver for 260m and there is no difference.I just recieved my laptop on Dec.21 so do you think they will refund my money. If not can you tell me how to solve this problem. I only got a six cell batterey so i dont got stealth mode on my computer right. Please get back to me.

 

Is the computer plugged in?

 

Yes it is.

 

This is not normal right?

 

sounds like you are on stealth mode, you laptop should be able to run these games at least 60fps

 

When i press the stealth mode button it says my battery dont support stealth mode.

 

Get Into Bios And Disable Integrated Graphics And Hibrid Graphics

 

try pulling out the battery (unplugged forn AC ) and press the power for 30 secs

 

i hate to tell you but 23-33 fps in full hd resolution is about all you're gonna get out of one 260m card. sorry bro, if you want frames, return and buy an m17x...

 

true i get around 60 fps on my m17x dual 260m sli

 

dude ur wrong, on my gateway p-7805 i can run all of those games at 60fps on 1200p resolution and i have a 9800gts, the 260m has better specs

 

ferndchamp u can always return it u still under the 30 day money bak guaranteed from alienware check this link for more info http://www.alienware.com/purchase/warranty.aspx scroll all the way down

 

60fps on 260m sli?? thats what you get because you have v-sink on,turn it off and then run some benchmarks and you will get better fps

 

how do i turn that off ? sorry im a noob when it comes to gaming laptops

 

1- on nvidia advanced settings or
2- on the game settings v-sink must be off

 

So should i be getting better fps. Please let me know, i am really new to pc gaming and this is really turning me off. What should i do?

 

I get better fps on my consoles.

 

thanks .. hey u should edit ur sig.. it says q900 , im sure u meant q9000

 

Hey blaster im from Corpus dude, pretty cool, you from the town im going to move to.

 

Should a v sink work for me too.

 

it should .. on the game settings when it says vsynk just turn it off i guess..

 

try 3dmark 06 or vantage and by the way what settings are the games in? do you have x0 antianalysing (that may lower ur fps)

 

Not true at all... He should be getting 60fps easliy, I do on every game I own with drops into the mid 40s at worst... Either stealth mode is on or his power saving settings are wrong. The stealth mode button is the one that looks like a speedometer in a car

If you are using windows 7 the default power option when I installed 7 was "balanced mode" and I was getting fps in the 50 range still. Go to power saving options and select "more power options" click high performance.

Im almost sure your in stealth mode, it doesnt switch back when you restart. The message you got "Stealth Mode not Support on Battery" only appears when the plug is not in. Make sure its plugged in.

 

If it says Stealth mode not supported on Battery, it would mean he isnt plugged in at all =/.

 

did u try to pull out the battery and press the power button for 30 seconds(w/no ac adapter)

 

Exactly.


could be he has is AA and AF and all lighting effects cranked but he should be able to run all of those in 1080p with textures and other things on highest and 2x or 4x AA and mild AF setting. I use hardware vsync so I dont have to adjust any vsinc options in game. Also borderlands doesnt have vsync ;p

 

When I woke up this morning I tried stealth mode thing with success. I don't really know how to turn it on or off but I was getting far more higher frame rates. I can't believe after all these threads about stealth mode I would still have this problemhow do you know if it is off or on?Thanks for the replies.
