U can get it from Fosila Instead!

fosila increased price before it was 57900 and now it is 58500 bummer!! anyways it still best to buy from there !! but my dad is not agree for me to buy such an expensive product online!! i talked to samsung showroom rep here he said he can get it if i order in 3-4 days i guess that was the better way!! something happened wrong with me i purchased a product from flipkart COD and i got the item successfully after 2-3 days i got a call from the shipping it was fed-ex the guy asked me do u remember to whom i gave the money and got the product i guess he run away with money! thats why they inquired they asked me how it looks etc. i was like wow they got cheated ! thats just 2,000 rs order...so i dont think they inquired much!! anyways i will never order anything which is more then 20k.

Played crysis 2 on hardcore settings at 900p resolution, constant 30 and above fps :D but cpu reached 91 C :( thats worrying me...
@pratyush you said we have to download drivers from net, but when i installed free software manager, it detected all the drivers and installed without connecting to net :|

how long did you play crysis? no fps drops at all? yea the software manager detects drivers from the 22GB samsung partition.

anyone tried Tom Clancy's Ghost recon Future soldier??

Found on notebookcheck.net that even gddr5 650m can only handle it in low settings, so anyone of you tried???

Notebookcheck also shows max payne 3 gets ~22fps at high settings, but most users are easily getting 35-45 fps at 1600x900. so I wouldn't completely rely on NBcheck. I'm sure ghost recon could run at high settings, if not ultra.

yup man exactly notebookcheck i saw that too and for bf3 too it shows it cant handle in ultra settings but it can easily handle that game!! and anyways ghost recon doesn't seems better then bf3 to me :D if you see in notebookcheck review most of the games are not able to run on ultra setting according to them but the truth is something else! they can!! even on 1600x900 :D

dude r you usin a cooling pad? n the max operating temp of 2nd gen CPU is 105c, I'm sure 3rd gen can handle it. n if ur lap gets fried don't worry, give it to Samsung cc, they'll take care of it, n from what I've experienced they're pretty good.:wink:

yea third one, if you read my other posts, you'll know I gave back the first two, both i5, n I believe the i7 ver is less prone to issues, as per all the i7 users. I'm giving Sammy one last go, the specs are too awesome:cool: but there are i5 users who aren't facing issues, so I don't know if I got unlucky twice by getting a defective piece...if the i7 let's me down, then its bye bye Samsung.

now i really think that 100C is IVY bridge's normal temp, because heat is been constantly been flowing through vent, whole laptop stays cool...no i dont have cooling pad and ac room, how did you manage to take two laptops? from dealer or SAMSUNG CC?

ron dont worry this is the normal temps 100% everyone is getting around same temps i was in teamviewer with pratyush and i saw the idle temps are 45 around and...load temps are 90 around! dont worry we can hope nvidia will fix this issue pretty soon!! every laptop is heating a lot even 15r se too is too much heating now saw somewhere if the laptop is cool dont worry and anyways samsung is going to give 3 years warranty soon buy that for sure! cooling pads are really not able to help here many owners using but they are seeing 2-3 c diff only thats not much! and if u buy cooling pad dont go with u2 or u3 lol they sucks!! just enjoy ur sammy now! my old laptop heats upto 80 c when i m playing sims 3 for 3-4 hours the heat is just can't bearable each and every part is heating lol
