The Samsung Series 5 550P Laptops Thread

[ujjwal007]

Hi All,
Im New Here in This Forum,

Im wishing To Purchase This Samsung Series 5 Laptop For Gaming (Yep Not That High End Gamer I'm ),
NP550P5C-S01IN. (53K) (M.P.) Or
NP550P5C-S02IN. (60K) (M.P.)
Which One Should I Choose,I Guess It'll Be i7 one.. But Im Pretty Confused Should i Buy It or Not,
Or Should I Go For HP DV6T-7000 Quad Core or Lenovo Y580 (Not finding em
In stores)

My Budget is 50K - 60K. But I Can Add Few More As Per Need.

Need Your Suggestion.

Thankyou

definetely go for it if your not heavy gamer! still though it works with even heavy games by putting max cpu to 60-70% we can control temps.

Stop with fid and underclocking crap. Play for an hour and then see temps. If they are below 93-94 on gta then it's cool. GTA is a bad console port and it shouldn't be used to judge performance. Try sleeping dogs or arkham city or battlefield to see how it's doing.

Was very patient and knowledgeable guy, cleared the doubts including the ones on extended warranty!
Asked to get the laptop to service center
Will change the screen, if available or get back to me as soon as possible.

Highly impressed..

after driver update now it throttles even at 73C.what the hell is wrong with this laptop?if its heating and throttling at 72 then what is the point of having gt650m.
can some one plz tell me its laptop problem or any other problem.Before bios update and driver update there was not throttling at all.

Should be some other problem. Which game was throttling? and did you try any other game? try doing a clean install of the new driver using some driver sweeper.

 

[Sukhvinder789]

so conclusion is that the laptop is still throtlling?
Guys please confirm this, so that i can decide to buy this lappy or not

Not for me. I'm enjoying it If you do plan to buy it there is an easy check. Use throttle stop. Take it to the shop in a PD and run it there itself , if there are no fluctuations it wont throttle

I am quiet satisfied with the new driver updates, Prototype was un-playable before update, now its running fine. Guys its a laptop not a gaming console, use it as a laptop. Don't play heavy games at heavy settings to rap* the hardware.

even in mass effect its throttling.i hvnt tried any other game.but before bios and driver update mass effect was running just fine(no throttle).
