AFAIK reduced speed wont throttle. As my 512 Kbps connection had constant dwnld speed (once upon a time ;))

Question for the owners of the i7 version :
How prominent is the throttling issue?(i.e. how much continuous gaming can be put in before it kicks in, under no AC, no cooling pad scenario)
Any ways of countering it(apart from getting a cooling pad)?
Are we looking at an update from nvidia or samsung to rectify the throttling issue?

In such a condition i.e no AC, no cooling pad, you just should not game on a laptop for long hours. That's not the purpose of a laptop.

Still, in those conditions, you can play games like FIFA 12, Street Fighter without any issues at all.

Now if you wanna play Max Payne 3 on high settings at 900p without an AC or a cooling pad, then its best to buy a desktop instead.

I haven't face any throttling issue thus far and I've played a ton of games already. (Max Payne 3, Mass Effect 3, Crysis 2, FIFA 12, Street Fighet X Tekken).

Could anyone please confirm if N550P 15 inch has additional hard drive bay? Because when I look into manual, I could see the title (17 inches only)

Also in Boot options, I could see Boot Priority as HDD or CD/DVD. But I could not find option like HDD1 or HDD2

I could not attach snapshots

you should definitely get 55-60 fps, try restarting the game

Guys, weird thing is that I get fps drops only when plugged in, when on battery there's no problem:-?......when there's a drop in fps I pull the plug and the fps shoots from 8 to 40...really weird :-?.....

Played fifa08. Same 31fps. What is happening? These games supposed to give more fps in 650m. What is the problem?

I reduced the resolution of nfsmw to least. Even then 31fps. At highest too 31fps. Could someone help here?

try this, in the nvidia control panel select "manage 3d settings", in that scroll down to "power management" change it to "prefer maximum performance", did you reinstall the drivers or anythin? 31 fps is not bad, its playable....what about other games like gta iv or max payne?

Intel HD 4000 is running even if you select it with control panel . Happens in Bully with me too . Looked upon it , it is a problem with every hybrid switching laptop . Worse in AMD. Try high performance power mode and turbo fan speed . Or worst case , force it via bios.

@Dan4u:Thank you.I did what you said. But nothing is changed. Same 31fps in all games. Fifa08,nfsmw,nfs hot pursuit 2010,devil may cry SE 3. Thats all i have. And its playable i know but i should get similar readings what everyone is getting. But even in these old games i getting only 30fps. And i didnt do anything with nvidia drivers.

vsync limits after 60fps . Below it , it has no role . Its a problem with switching . Force it via Bios .

I went in BIOS but couldn't find how to set 650m as default. Can anyone guide me? And i think problem will still persist. I played dmc3se on intel hd4000 avg was 25.741,min 24 and max 28. With 650m avg 31.64,min 30 and max 32. Now what?
