    Hello guys & gals :D

    I'm new to the laptop scene and have just purchased the much loved and hated Toshi Qosimo.


    THIS is the lappy i have purchased. some talk about this 706 i don't really understand if its the same as this one but i hope you can clear me up.

    I should expect delivery some time this week possibly Friday.

    I have read almost every review saying it has all this BLOATWARE on it and would like to know what i should discard. I also have Vista Ultimate waiting to install so ill have the 64bit running. I basically would like to be mainly playing crysis, battlefield and Americas army. Also a bit of video work and watching movies off.

    Could any one that has the same lappy that has great knowledge PLEASE post,PM or email me what setting and adjustments i need to get this thing running super hard.
    So any additional programs to make it quicker and to overclock it would be good, i also would like to throw in 8GB of the ddr3 2400 ram but where do i get it from?

    Also ive never played Crysis but its looks a great game, if anyone out there has the same unit and plays it BF and AA also pm me id like to get a TS server going and get a new team together.

    Thanks for taking the time to read my post/thread and hope you can assist me with the problems.

    Thanks
    Dasko76 :cool:

    Well..I have the Q701 and Crysis did not work with me...there was a sound lag issue and I could not get rid of it. I searched around and found out it was the problem with the game itself. The sound engine in Crysis was not made to be compatible with newer sound cards, only with those at its time of release. I'm hoping Crytek releases a patch soon for this problem.
