Dude in hp authorised showroom its 39990/- and get a free hp backpack i guess. on the website also it shows the same price. Its better to buy from local dealers as they will give for 1 or 2k less. Not sure why they quote 41k at ur place, u can get one from fk.

Neither do i know why local stores are claiming such high prices with respect to fk . I am from kerala and this is my first time experience buying laptops . Neither we have an authorized hp showroom nearby .
It would have been awesome if i could find 2313ax or g4 2049tx at around 38k in local stores (can't buy from fk) but the former is not available (they say not yet launched) and latter priced too steep (41k) :(

Got 2201AX a couple of days back and NFSMW is the first game I've run on this. Dual graphics were enabled and the game lagged like hell and was unplayable. Disabled dual graphics and voila, smooth as butter even in high settings.

Now, isn't APU + GPU supposed to increase performance than just APU? Either I've read feck all these past days or I am missing something here :-|

Can someone clear this up? Thanks!

Its a driver issue, dual graphics only works in DX11, since MW is not a DX11 title, when you play it with that it actually runs of the internal card, sad but true.

I think nfsmw IS a dx11 title. AMD has kinda ruined this dual graphic concept on this. I hope they update the drivers to fix this problem.

That they did, but compared to a ci3 its better, as dual graphics work in a lot of games(does not work in a lot as well), only one or two games, 99% won't, so for those that work you'll get a boost, for others it will not.

Its a big issue, anyway as I heard richland will have GCN cores on die, that will allow true dual graphics(true asymmetric cf).

Well, I was doing some research, cancel my last statement, most games lose performance in dual graphics mode: AMD A8-3850 Llano Desktop Processor Review - Can AMD compete with Sandy Bridge? | AMD Dual Graphics Performance and Scaling

Oh hell, and just as I was about to buy one of these :(

After much experience with my laptop(2005ax) I must say, it has performed better than I thought. Even though it lacks performance in day-to-day tasks, it performs amazingly while gaming. My boot up time and app launch time is more than my friends laptop (hp i5 3rd gen+7670m) but it surprisingly performs much better while gaming. If you want to buy a mid range gaming laptop, this one is just amazing in its price range. There is no such over heating issue for me yet (every laptop heats up during gaming, even this one). The only part where it lacls IMO is while performing simple non-gaming tasks and especially boot up. It's a little slow there when compared to intel laptops. Also, hp service is quite good and this laptop will give you a dust+finger magnet but a premium finish. So, for 33k, this one is a steal.

My roommate has this laptop. I had tried DiRT 3.

If playing on low 1366x768 and using Dual Graphics, you won't notice any boost over only Discrete GPU. But if you are running DiRT 3 on medium/high then you feel Dual Graphics kicking in.

It won't work for any DirectX 9 game however but will work on AMD sponsored DirectX 11 games. Enabling Dual Graphics for DirectX 9 game = choppy.

Also make sure that you have the latest AMD CAP installed. AMD Catalyst Application Profile
