    But what Resolution are you running here? 60-80 fps seems a little high at native res even at medium settings, but maybe I'm underestimating the card.

    I tend to go with ATI cards. I feel I have more control of the card with CCC then with nVidia's drivers.

    I dunno, personal preference I guess.

    I find the opposite actually, I was a little disappointed when running CCC compared to Nvidia's software. But, it is definitely a personal preference.

    No i didn't
    I kinda exagerrated on that last reply without doing an adequate bench

    So here goes:
    on fraps playing cod4 on 1280x800 no aa and everything else turned on
    25-60 fps (26.9 avg)

    Ut3 all high
    ~30-42+ fps


    Still not bad for a budget laptop imo :)

    Folks,
    I am new to this forum with some specific questions about the ATI HD 3650 card. I am running into problems with several programs rcognizing the fact that my computer has a video card. One of them is the Digital Juice Juicer 3 software. After installation of this software and upon it's launch I get the error message " No open GL hardware found, Juicer will operate in software mode." Also when I load the third party plug in Red Giant Magic Bullet Movie Looks for Studio Ultimate 12 it will not load. I have traced this to the fact that it is looking for a video card of at least a certain "strength", the one I have should be way more than adequate for the task. I have an Asus F8va with a core 2 duo p8400, 4 Gig of memory 250 Gig hard drive and I am running Windows XP Pro SP3. I have not try to load any more software on it untill I get this problem solved. Has anyone else had problems like this with this card?
