poor graphics performance

Gwyn · 7 Nov 2008 at 00:23

Hi All
I have just recieved my new clevo laptop today.
T9400
4 gig ram
320 hdd
9800m gtx

I am very pleased with it so far. I only have two issue which I hope someone could help me with.
Firstly I dont seem to be getting the correct graphics performance. I get 5200 marks in 3dmark06
and 1900 marks in Vantage. these are run at the programs default res and with everything in the drivers
set on performance.
Secondly the fan seems a little too loud. Even on silent and power saving it is still pretty loud. Is there
a setting im missing?

I would appreciate any help.

regards
Gwyn

Hi there
Im playing farcry 2 which I need to turn the settings right down.
I see people with the same system getting over 9,000 in 3dmark06

I have checked all performance setting and everything is set to performance.
I think I need to try changing the drivers.
Are the 9800m GT drivers the same as the 9800m gtx?

I just installed cod4 and it updated my dx drivers.
Just ran 3dmark06 and got 9780 marks.
Im really pleased with this.
Thanks for all your help
