    hi,

    I was wondering about my laptop and it's GPU.I have a n5010 with i5 cpu and a ati 5650 GPU.
    1) my gpu have 1GB memory of its own and can use another 1GB from system ram ,am I right ?
    also
    2) if I want to overclock my gpu,what program should I use,considering that I don't know much about overclocking ? (I'm aware of the overheating problem and I can handle it)

    thanks in advance :D

    I don't think the N5010 version can leech VRAM from main system RAM, and that RAM would be slower anyway. You can try overclocking with TRiXX.
