Lowest FRPs

That really won't help too much on your framerate, seeing as most games are more GPU bound. But it may help in things like CS:S, WoW, Warcraft 3, etc.

 

that means nfs pro street on high will not play welll since 35 fps to 20 is what you get i hear when its on high settings

 

I read somewhere in a post a couple years ago that you cannot tell the difference of a frame rate once it gets past 60 FPS. I think anything above that has more of a placebo effect. You think it is running better, but its not. If you can tell the difference, its because the game has a problem like stuttering. I could be completely wrong though. I usually like anything above 30 FPS. I don't mind 25 FPS, so long as it is stagnant.

 

The human eye can only see 60FPS. Unless you are playing Quake or something with that style, over 40 is hard for me to tell.

 

And who exactly was disputing that he does not have the right to do so? Please fill me in cause you obviously read my comment incorrectly. I said he "should speak for himself". Can you understand that?

I was never defending anything to say the least. All I was saying is that his processor is the reason behind his lower fps in his gaming experiences, and that he should take that into account before speaking negatively towards the whole HP dv9500t series or 8600M GS period.

His CPU against yours is maybe, I mean maybe a 2-5FPS difference. Games are not CPU bound. Can you understand that? I mean, I'm not trying to be a jerk about this, but seems like you are getting a little pissy about this. Unless he is playing an RTS, or something that is constantly using his CPU... there will be a SLIGHT difference.

Maybe his laptop is bugged? I had an 8600GT before this new notebook, and hated it! Turned out, there was a problem in my GPU processing, so my 8400GT out performs my old 8600GT. Now, does that mean this in a true general statement? Of course not. On any platform, bechmark, or gaming experience the 8600GT will out-perform the 8400GT... but I had a bad experience.

Before sticking up for All HP dv9500t's, you should think a little about what he said. If someone came on here saying the AR605 was junk, I would say "I'm happy with mine", and leave it at that. There is nothing more to be said.

 

No need for a fight

 

? Point me in the direction of the fight!

 

There lol

 

I was never "sticking up" for anything, sounds like you misread my post again. I can personally careless about what he thinks about his notebook. The point and principle of the matter is and was that he could have kept his remark about his PC to his own personal experience and leave it at that. His comment made it seem like the notebook series in general is in his words "Crap".

I have the dv9500t with the 8600m gs and I couldn't be happier with it. BUT, thats my own personal opinion and the experiences that I have had with it have kept me contempt with my purchase.

Does that mean that there isn't someone out there thats unhappy with their's? Of course not but, that also applies to every single notebook model/company out there as well.

Maybe so, who knows but, I still say his processor is the boltneck for the performance he's getting. Before I even contemplated on getting a notebook I was told that the bare minimum for even slight to occasional gaming was at least 1.8ghz 2ghz being the better. Don't get me wrong I'm no dummy and I know that the CPU isnt what makes or breaks your gaming experience in gaming.

 

if games are gpu dependent then there is nothing i can do right

 

nope, not one thing except upgrade processor

 

what if i up the textture memory in rivatuner its currently set at 0

 

Good wording. Glad this didn't get out of hand, and it's always good to see someone as happy with their notebook as I am mine!

Don, I don't know about upping the texture, but you could always up it a little, and run a game. Trial and error. What kind of games are you playing?

 

here's some of them

 

None of those, aside from Crysis rely on the CPU. Still, upgrading won't give you much of a boost. Maybe 5FPS in some cases. If that's worth the extra $, that's up to you!

 

no not $300+ for 5fps, even though other apps would benifit im just going to get the 8800 sli quad core. even though when i recover from buying this one the 9600 gt will come out and it is said the be equal to the 8800 gs

 

With the Quad core, you are really just future-proofing yourself. Developers are still having a hard time with Dual Core, not even close to good production of Quad-core. SLi is the same situation. With dual 8800's, you will burning laps around everyone in benchmarks, but until games REALLY utilize SLi, the difference won't be insane. (Seeing as one 8800GT is inane already)

But, if you have the money, go for it!

 

ill try lol

 

im good at 20+ for RTS/RPG, 25+ for FPS singleplayer, 35+ for FPS multiplarer.

 

what games did u play on online multiplayer
