Your CPU temps should not go up to 67.4°C, which is the max CPU configuration for your CPU, according to Intel http://ark.intel.com/products/65516/intel-core-i5-3550-processor-6m-cache-up-to-3_70-ghz

Leaving the benchmarks apart, how does it works in practice?

I was trying to install it, but it seems my Dell Inspiron 14 2640 does not support it -- I haven´t found it installed in my system anyway. :( C: I am not sure if it has or not it -- there is an old version installed that shows Optimus, but I am sure about the new driver version. I am not used...

Hi IInuyasha74! Actually I do not use the laptop to play games, but my desktop. The laptop is for general use, most of the time inside my place, so no issues with battery so far, tough it is always good to learn how to save power, just in case. I think Optimus you´ve suggested is a very good...

Good!

I don´t know if formatting would be a solution since it is a hardware related issue. I´d return the kit, and get a new one with the correct voltage.

Yes, if you do it wrongly your PC can get demaged -- if your motherboard lets you change voltages in the Bios, in the first place.

It seems like a memory ram voltage issue. The one you´ve got is 1.5V, while the original (recommended) one is only 1.35V.

It seems that both cards are working in my system -- the HD 4000 as the main card, and the GT 625M for PhysX. I haven´t set it like that -- perhaps a default configuration?

I have got a Dell Inspirion 14 2640 Notebook, and I was wondering if I could use the HD 4000 alonside with the Geforce GT 625M. If so, what should I do in order to use them together? Thank you!

Thank you all for the help! :)

Hi Draven35, The primary use of the PC is for audio, but he also want to editing/rendering videos -- eventually he wants to use the audios he produces to make some videos, but nothing professional. He couldn´t tell me if he is going to use ProTools-specific plugins, but he said he wants to...

Thank you Draven35 for your reply, Yes, it will be firewire-based. He will be using Saffire 56, DAW( digital audio workstation), Reaper e Protolds, keyboard and controller, and tons of audio plugins. What video card would you suggest as it will be used for some light editing/rendering too...
