    hi !

    i would this topic become the ONE concerning this video card Nvidia Quadro FX3600M for NOTEBOOK only.

    Soon, i will buy a notebook with this card, specially for 3D application and long time period (count at leat 10h hours of hard work cpu usage).

    So, i would find someone who have it, and have some discuss about it and heat issue.

    But my big question is :
    IS IT very hot too ? compares to other video gaming card ?

    My second question is :

    is the card/notebook will burn after 10hours of hard CPU/GPU usage, so i can use the waranty to have a new one ain't I ?.

    Then, if the new notebook/card will burn again under the same condition of usage, could i have another third one ? Does the warranty is extand after a replacement ? How many hardware exchange can i have ?

    The video card is dedicated to endure hard work 3D application, so the brand/seller must know i will use it in long period isn't it ?

    For exampl, you don't buy a Ferrari to ride at 150Mph over 1Km of road, but over 20Km at least!

    So, as a 3D task rendering is long, i assume the constructor believe me when i will tell him the notebook have been used in right&correct order condition during the fail problem.

    what do you think about this ?

    The card is based off the 8800m gts so go look at 8800m gts reviews.

    i already know that, but i'd like some feedback by guys who use it for CAD/3D work in long period.

    The users who owns the card might not have the same notebook you are planning to buy therefore their cooling systems are going to be very different.

    You should be posting in the forum for the laptop that you want to buy, I can already see you posting back because your temps don't match what someone else has.
