    I know this notebook is somewhat of a gaming notebook, but holy ****, is it supposed to be this good!?

    I just downloaded the Bioshock demo off of Steam, and I'm running it at 720p on all max settings, with a very smooth framerate. Is this just because it's the demo, because Bioshock reqs aren't that high, or because the cooling on the Clevo is amazing and therefore the GPU can work harder? Or a combo of all of the above :confused:

    Just saying that this Clevo kicks ass. I can't wait to try CoD4 on it.

    It has been able to get through pretty much anything I've thrown at it. BioShock isn't all its cracked up to be in terms of system requirements ;) My system kept locking up though, trying to get through their demo.

    Update: When running with stock drivers (1038), it is possible to ctrl-alt-delete to the task manager in order to kill the game. It still crashes though...
