The Samsung Series 5 550P Laptops Thread
i got i5
but im sure there's absolutly no problem with the laptop..it never heated up more then 70c even after a hour of gaming..its a beast.
hmm but when u go for a replacement ask for a 120w they wont agree first but try to console them n they will definitely give u otherwise install gta4 or BF3 n play with it there n show them the throttling n compare it with both the chargers

^he got Stable drivers but we r still playing / beta ones
Even with beta drivers, 650m should not perform so badly. Take a look at your 3dmark11 score sheet, core clock of gpu is given as 405mhz but the stock core clock of 650m in other laptops is 675mhz. Seems like samsung has underclocked 650m in np550 series presumably to avoid overheating, so I think samsung was aware of overheating issues. It is sad that underclocking has only reduced the performance not the temperature and has brought it to the level of 640m le.

I'm still on 304.79 beta verde drivers. Stable WHQL certified drivers are yet to release. And, btw my gpu maxes out at 67 c while playing Modern Warfare 2 @ 1080p. So I guess I can go a bit further on the clocks...
Also, I felt a remarkable increase in speed while using a Force 3 GT 120gb on my Vaio S15. Boots in to windows within 10 seconds. DAYUM. Any of you guys planning to go for a SSD upgrade in the near future, I'd advise you to go for either Crucial m4 or Force 3 GT (readily available). They're the best in terms of VFM and reliability at the moment.

I thought you loved your laptop, in fact you advised many members to buy it without second thought. Now you are gonna back out and get a refund?

I wanna go for an SSD upgrade ASAP..just waiting for the lappy.
But if you've read before there is a problem with adding the additional SSD. Optical drive has to be removed.

Might be a problem with sammy. In my case, the replacement took around 5 mins...sata 3 ftw!

Overclocked to 975mhz core / 1100mhz memory (higher clocks than 650m). Temps after an hour of mw2 @ 1080p.
FYI: I've still not incremented the voltage.
It's sata III @ 6 gbps on vaio s15's HM77 chipset. You just need a compatible hdd/ssd to run at those speeds though.

no i have made the people at acer's service center to do everything i want they even replaced the whole keyboard when only a key was not working its just the way u talk to them n ur convincing power

Nope, I upgraded from a 750gb 5400rpm sata II HDD to a 120gb Force 3 GT sata III SSD on my Sony Vaio SVS15116GN (SVS15116GN : S Series : VAIO™ Laptop & Computer : Sony India).
Guess that explains it all...
