Hello all :) Hope u are all fine :)

Well last night i saw this Video:
http://www.tomshardware.com/8800m- [...] o-286.html

and it shows that M1730 can't run Crysis @ 1920x1200 with high setting and 0xAA with good FPS and the game play isn't very good so they use the medium settings, but i think its not right, look @ anandtech review of M1730 it has the same config, and just look @ the FPS @ 1920x1200

Also i have seen many getting better FPS even with a lower CPU like a T9300

i think there is a driver problem in that video

Sorry, just got you PM last night. I would say it's probably a driver issue or that anandtech spent more time getting rid of the crapware on their XPS.

Personally, I didn't like the Tom's video any way because it concluded the obvious, that a gaming system would beat a workstation unit. If they wanted a real test they should have tried to get the Eurocom/ Clevo model that included the GTX's.

Thanks :)
Yeah i knew something was wrong there, also comparing 2 8800MGTXs with one Quadro card isn't fair
