    As i am interested in getting the Envy maybe like other people?
    i was wondering if some of you lucky people that already have the Envy
    would mind sharing some Screens (with FPS) as well as some videos of some of the games, it would be nice to know what the settings are as well :)

    I know there are benchmarks for it but i want in GAME screens and videos
    benchies like 3d Marks and the like dont interest me - ONLY actual in game performance does :)

    I am currently busying installing and working out some stuff on my new Envy. I can try to try to play some games on it later in the week. Just note that my Envy has the 1366x768 screen so I can't show you FHD resolution gaming performance.

    Call me mad but I opted for a low-resolution screen. I personally find the potential with the HD 5830 better with a lower-resolution screen then going FHD. Then again, I know many of the Envy owners goes with FHD for many reasons that are often better than mine. :p
