yea its a must I believe.


Nways guys, I'm kinda fed up with the constant drops in fps while charging:-x, I can't play on battery every time :-x, I think I'm gonna return it n ask for a refund:-(..

and also there's a new BIOS version, The old version is P03AAA, new one's P04AAA, get it from samsung's website, under firmware section.

why dont you use throttle stop ?? :-?

What must be the cost of GT 650M in this?

What should be the price of the laptop, if we subtract the dedicated graphics? I'm no gamer, just asking due to curiosity!:razz:

Dammit. I have infinite evo. Even while playing nfs hot pursuit 2010 the frames dropped from 60 to 42 just for few secs but this is happening alot. I am not so happy with this throttling as i thought it would be only in BF3 and MP3 kinda games. Or infinte evo is not good for this laptop. Temps are 80c after 1/2hr of play

Yours is i5 version or i7 version of 550p??:-?

@pratyush & Prongs298 & @Any Owners

You guys tried Throttle Stop?? Is it good??Does it stop throttling completely?? :-?

I am in US and going to buy a new laptop. I was till now considering the sony s15 but this thread caught my attention. I tried to find the model mentioned here but in US it is only available in 768p resolution. But i found another laptop namely the 7 series NP700Z5C.
This is Ivy Bridge 900p laptop.
Anyone has any ideas as how good this is ?

I'd suggest you stick with S15. Samsung has much worse screen and is no where near S15 as an overall package for a non gamer. And S15 can also perform as good/better than NP550 with GPU overclock. :)

Try calling Samsung CC. It might be due to the low powered PSU. :-x
In the mean time try reducing the processor performance to reduce power requirements when plugged in to AC supply. :|
All this throttling issues have got me worried as I am going to get mine this week... :-(
idk, it might be that.

why dont you use throttle stop ?? :-?

Y U NO DOWNLOAD THROTTLE STOP??:|:twisted:
I'll try it, but what I don't understand is that it works fine on battery:-?....fps drops only when plugged in..:-x
