I am still looking for a way to OC the 8850m at least to 8870m level because they are basically the same chips. Such a small OC will probably be risk free and the laptop will be oficially in the high end segment.

Leave that, how did you like the review ?

GPU-CPU PERFORMANCE : FEW MORE COMPOUND BENCHMARKS


3D Mark Vantage


Dell Inspiron 15R(Core I7 4500U/8850M) : 8842 Points


Asus N550JV-CN201H( Core I7 4700HQ/750M) : 9742 Points


HP Envy 15-j011sg(Core I5 4200M/740M) : 6334 Points


Toshiba Satellite S50-A-10H(Core I7 4700MQ/740M) : 6805 Points



3D MARK 11

Dell Inspiron 15 R(Core I7 4500U/8850M) : 2589 Points


Asus N550JV-CN201H( Core I7 4700HQ/750M) : 2678 points


HP Envy 15-j011sg(Core I5 4200M/740M) : 1947 points


Toshiba Satellite S50-A-10H(Core I7 4700MQ/740M) : 2007 Points


PERFORMANCE VERDICT : BY TAKING INTO ACCOUNT ALL THE GPU/SYSTEM/CPU/COMPOUND/GAMING BENCHMARKS WE REALIZE THAT QUAD CORE/STD DUAL CORE PROCESSORS ARE "OVERRATED" AND THE DELL INSPIRON 15R DESPITE HAVING A "WEAK" ULV CPU IS THE "BEST" LAPTOP MONEY CAN BUY IN THE 55-65K RANGE .

For the general user YES but for the power user NO. Nvidia mobile cards overclock like crazy and once someone does that, they leave AMD mobile cards miles behind. If the laptop cooling allows it then it's obvious that one should overclock to increase performance. This is still not a gaming laptop, it's a high end multimedia laptop.

So Lenovo Z510(Core I7 4700MQ/740M) and HP Envy 15 (Core I5 4200M/740M) are both gaming laptops is it ?...because they have a 64 bit Nvidia GT 740M Gfx ?

When did I say that? :eek: :blink:.
By US standards Alienware 14 is the first "true" gaming laptop.

From your earlier statement it seemed so.

Anyways,in case you didn't know Amd has something of its own called "APP"..ACCELERATED PARALLEL PROCESSING.Its similar to Nvidia hardware acc but uses Open Cl instead of CUDA

IDK what that is. Benefits?

I knew all that and I think you misunderstood me. I just thought that Bioshock Infinite had hardware accelerated PhysX. I am impressed you actually did all that research just to prove no matter what Inspiron 15/15R is better than Y500. Explain the better performance in Y500 when playing Bioshock Infinte then :p.

I'll do one more test on Metro Last Light for your satisfaction........PhysX off, Physics on ;).

- - - Updated - - -

Without PhysX Metro Last Light does little to no damage to CPU anyway so it's safe to assume that a HD 8850M will always beat GT 650M.

Inspiron 15.
Avg=12.84
Max=26.12
Min=7.72

Y500
Avg=11.65
Max=22.10
Min=7.33

BTW this is a nice game ^.^
Playing it with everything maxed out gives an altogether different feeling :)).


So I installed the latest drivers(Catalyst 13.12) and this happened

A gigantic increase of 6-7 FPS over the previous results,looks like AMD driver optimization is getting better day by day..so much win :) !!!!
