Will gt750m DDR5 2Gb be the minimum 2015

ErgoProxi — Wed, 12 Nov 2014 16:18:24 +0800

Nowadays, there're lots of video games that demands lots of video processing powers. The suitable machine to run them on reasonable frame rate is actual a Personal Computer(PC). But, not all are willing to carry that bulky machine around while travelling. Therefore, gamers usually opt for a Gaming Laptop or in my case, a laptop with gaming specs.

My y400[Nvidia GT 750m DDR5 2Gb] has been with me since over a year. Will it be enough to run all the 2015 games
at minimum settings on 1366 x 768 resolution?

I also did a mod(without voiding warranty, I believed) to reduce the temperatures and tested with COD:Advance Warfare.

p/s: will test with Evil Within later.

Simplest mod to increase air flow

ErgoProxi — Thu, 06 Nov 2014 14:03:30 +0800

This thread is not a WTA [want to ask].

Recently, a high graphic demanding game was released. A game that many First Person Shooter (FRP) gamers have been longed for.
The name of the said game is Call of Duty: Advance Warfare. Lucky for me, the graphic optimisation of the game is great. I could run it on my outdated lenovo y400 laptop(Well, the Nvidia 900m series are out and they are out of my price range ).

The minimum requirements for COD: Advance Warfare:
INTEL CPU: Core i3-530 2.9GHz
AMD CPU: Phenom II X4 810
Nvidia GPU: GeForce GTS 450
AMD GPU: Radeon HD 5870 1024MB
RAM: 6 GB
OS: Win 7 64 bits
Directx: DX11
HDD Space: 55 GB

My Lenovo y400 specs:
INTEL CPU: i7 (3rd Gen) 3630QM / 2.4 GHz
Nvidia GPU: GeForce GT750m 2G DDR5
RAM: 8 GB
OS: Win 8.1 64 bits
Directx: DX11
HDD: SSD(KINGSTON SV300S37A120G)

However, the temperature were rather extreme. As high as 104'C(well, one of it's core) CPU & 98'C GPU without cooling pad and A.C room. Certainly, not enough to cause a sudden blue screen of death(BSOD) or sudden death of GPU nor CPU but high enough to reduce the computer lifespan. At first, I tried to reduce the temperature by using a simple modded cooling pad.

Still, it was not effective. So, I began to mod the cooling system of the Notebook.
