i have a D-link dir-615 router i am perfectly happy with its range and connectivity but i wish to add a 2 TB external hard drive and a Hp desk-jet scanner cum printer directly to the router can u suggest which model of router should i upgrade to?

yes, of course!! Fifa 12 runs fine on 1600*900 high settings with 2x MSAA I don't what's wrong with 13. Maybe its too graphics demanding. But motebookcheck.net tells me a different story altogether.

FPS I don't know, I guess it was around 1/5th of what notebookcheck.net has mentioned on its website (yes, with the medium settings and no MSAA). Throttling: no. Stuttering(maybe throttling, couldn't differentiate as I was too irritated) : yes(2 times)

Temps were good. <95 degrees on HW Monitor. Played for about 1.5 hours. Very disgusted by the performance though.

Back again after a VERY long time. Disappointed about the performance of this lappy when it runs FIFA 13. The highest I can go without compromising the smoothness of the gameplay while playing is: Res : 1280*720 (???? with 8GB RAM???) Quality : Medium MSAA : Off (??? WTF???? and this is a...

I'm not using the Beta driver from NVIDIA and I'm not experiencing any throttling. Using Notepal U2 but no significant difference, hardly 2 degrees decrement in temps.

Nope. I don't think I need to. You know I love this lappy and don't want to part with it. Ever! On a serious note, I don't game on battery. And this happened to me only 3 times(fps drop). I'm not experiencing any since 1 week.

Yes I noticed it. Strange.

For all of the owners who tried to enable extra features of the Touchpad by going into the Synaptics Touchpad settings and were frustrated that the settings reset themselves everytime you reboot, I have got some good news. I uninstalled Synaptics software, let Windows 7 detect the touchpad and...

Never happened with me

52 fps

Congrats on your new laptop. :-) My GPU stays at 80*. But 1600x900 resolutions flame up CPU temps. But as long as there's no throttling, I'm fine.

Yes played Crysis Warhead at 1600x900. Noticed the obvious change in FPS. But was very playable. Another change : the temps reached 90* mark very fast but stayed at 98* for almost 45 mins. No throttling. @rider : I have tried uploading pics in this forum from the very first day. Something's...

I already said that I'm playing Max Payne 3 with high and ultra settings at 1600x900. Its not throttling. All you need is better ventilation and, in some cases, a cooler.

Played Crysis Warhead for about an hour, max temp was 95*, resolution was 1366x768, fps was very good, all settings were ultra(Enthusiast). The thing that I want to say? NO THROTTLING
