    Hi!

    I bought a new 700Z5C-S03 about two months ago.
    The problem i have is that the dedicated graphics card (GT640M) core clock is only 135MHz, i can only play Starcraft 2 with playable FPS with all settings in low.
    I'm watching gpu-z on my second screen when i play and the gpu core keeps at 135MHz but the load is at 99%.
    The Temprature pends between 87-113C.
    I have set silent mode off, energy mode to high performence.

    Is it the high tempratures that makes it running at 135MHz?

    Is it a common problem that the GT640M can't run on it's standard core clock because of the high temprature?

    The computer is new so there should not be any dust in the cooling system.

    Hi Slavfot, welcome to NBR.

    I am sorry that you haven't been getting any traction with your question. I think you will have a much better chance in the Owners Lounge for your model:

    http://forum.notebookreview.com/sam...eries-7-lovers-heres-np700z5c-ivy-bridge.html

    Since it is more than 24 hours since your post, you can go ahead and post the question again there now if you want. I'll leave this thread open just in case. If you get answers in the Owners Lounge first, we can simply close this one.

    Edit: Discussion is continued here.

    Closing this thread.
