MSI GT735 - Crysis Warhead

Heres a video I made right after I got my laptop. Its a MSI GT735, please take note that this is right after I bought the laptop. It was still using stock video drivers and everything. I have got new drivers now and I can say it does run a quite a bit faster.

Sorry about, the camera, its a digital camera filming. And clearly its not good at it, the camera records at a poor fps. However you can see the game is perfectly playable. Game is pretty smooth, sorry about the no sound the camera has some problem and for some reason didn't capture the sound. Ill eventually have some more games on that laptop preferably filmed with fraps next time.

Enjoy, if you can.

Game is running on a mix of enthusiast and gamer and some mainstream. surprising since this laptop has no problem with enthusiast on shaders when my old laptop used to go to a slide-show with it. I love the 3850.

Oh yea, and the res in that video was 1400x1050 (i think or maybe it was 1440x900, one of those).

Remember to watch in HQ.

Pretty nice. I was going to purchase a MSI GT735 myself, but I couldn't wait for it to arrive in Canada, so I went with the ASUS G50Vt instead. Good to see the HD 3850 has the power to handle Crysis. I trired the original Crysis on my notebook and it didn't run all that great at Very High settings, but I wonder how well it'll handle Crysis Warhead which is sups to be more optimized.

 

Nice GPU, mr cheeseman. Unfortunately for me my last laptop died and I was in a rush had to get a new one quick. So i went for the re branded MSI Gt735 at london drugs in canada. I got a good deal + if it breaks they repair it only a hour drive away from where I live, so shipping it to the manufacturer is not needed *yay*. And it looks good quality and I hear good things so I got it.

Btw Canada has a terrible selection of laptops. Out of bestbuy, futureshop, london drugs, walmart, radioshack, visions, ncix, the most powerful gpu I could find in a laptop was the 3850 (besides the crap thats like 3k$).

And the Turion X2 Ultra is not nearly as bad people are saying it is. It beat my T7500 in WPrime.

 

Yea, overall I say the MSI GT735 is a nice machine. The Turion X2 Ultra should holdup pretty well with the overclock feature, plus your HD 3850 also has a 256-bit memory bus which lets you make best of that 1680 x 1050 resolution. To me the most attractive aspect of the MSI GT735 would be the aluminum finish on certain areas and the overal thinness of the notebook.

 

yea, the MSI has amazingly thing gaming laptops. I can't wait to play Crysis on my laptop too! my last computer was a desktop with a ATI X800 XT.

btw, what are you exact settings for Crysis Warhead?

 

1920x1200 Mate, not 1680x1050. Its actually a MS-1721 but it also says GT 735 on the box. But its specs are a bit different than the GT 735. And its marketed as certified data, not MSI. lol. Im happy with it though.

 

Ill have to check when I get home but im 90% sure its like.

Object Detail: Mainstream
Physics: Mainstream
Sound: Mainstream
Shaders: Enthusiast
Particles: Enthusiast
Post Pro: Enthusiast
Volumetrics: Gamer
Textures: Gamer
Water: Gamer

Lol 3, 3, 3,. Even! lol.

 

Glad to see someone out there not bashing their AMD based gaming notebook!

 

Do you know when it will arrive to Canada?

 

I bought mine in Canada, I got it from London Drugs. Its branded with the London Drugs name "Certified Data" but you can clearly see its the red and black laptop, and if you look on the bottom it says MSI. Ive seen variations of the GT735 and the GT725 (or whatever the one is thats coupled with Intel + Geforce 9600).

I saw the Geforce 9600GT one with the C2D Intel MSI one also at the London Drugs when I bought my GT 735 build. The Geforce + Intel one was a great deal only like 1299$. When at futureshop that will barely get you a GMA X3100. I went for the GT735 because it had bigger screen and better GPU, the Intel + Geforce one had a 15.4inch screen I think with 1280x800 res. And thats too small of a res and screen for the stuff I do.

Nice thing when its certified data/london drugs, they can service it and any London Drugs. And if it has a big problem , You just take it to london drugs and they pay for the shipping. Because they try to make it look like its their brand not msi. I asked the guy is this a re branded MSI? and hes like its Certified Data, and i said yea but its like this and I pulled out a printed sheet from MSI's website, and hes like yea we order the bare-bones and build them.

They did a good job too,

 

Did you record that video with fraps? Seems like it lags way to much to actually being playable to me.

 

Recorded with a digital camera that can only record at 24fps, its much smoother in game play but the digital camera sucks, im gonna do a fraps capture soon which turns out much smoother.

 

That explains it Though Fraps is not recommended since it eats away way too much GPU power.

 

YHNTHELL!!! *boom*

hahaha suicide bombing AMD laptops


But I have to give it to you the W90 is pretty much the rebirth of the Gateway P-**** FX series
Crysis very high 30FPS+ on stock laptop... for <$2200... priceless

 

hi magnus72,

i have a m1730 with the following specs
T9300 CPU @2.5ghz
4gb ram
dual 8800m GTX in SLi
running vista32 OS

nVidia 179.48 driver installed

i am running GTA4 (unpatched) at minimum settings, and i am getting less than 10fps. can you help me? my other games seem to be performing badly as well.

 

Solare, you should be getting much higher.

Try plugging in your laptop, make sure its not a down clocking issue.

 

Crysis Very High DX10 and what res? Solare yes I can help you with GTA IV.

 

i heard after patching to 1.2 it should run better. i will try to tweak it using the tweak app, as well as using your settings for draw distance. any other suggestions?

how can i improve performance for other games too? e.g gow and crysis which i saw on your youtube site where you played it at max settings.

 

Gears of War? That runs at 62 fps, it´s not a demanding game at all. You must be playing GOW at 62 fps 1920x1200?

 

yeah i think its no problem, haven't played in a while but should be ok. how about for gta4? did u have any problems before updating the patch to v1.02?
