Hey guys,
I recently got a new Samsung laptop, the specs:
Intel core i7 3610QM 2.3 GHz (Turbo boost to over 3.20)
8Gb of RAM
Intel HD Graphics 4000 w/ AMD Radeon HD 7670m
1 TB 5400 rpm
Windows 8
Ok so in the 2 weeks before I got the laptop I kept checking my specs and I was disappointed that every single site claimed the 7670 was pretty *** for modern day games. After I got the laptop and some complications with the drivers and missing software which resulted in games using only the Intel graphics instead of the 7670, I got it to work properly and I was exttremely surprised!! It runs games incredibley well, DMC 4 w/ highest settings at solid 60, Force Unleashed 1 high details at solid 60, Serious Sam 3 on medium GPU settings at 60 and high at 30, ultra at 20, The Witcher 2 on high with 20 and 40 at low settings, NFS:MW at 30 with medium-high settings, Saint Row 3 in medium at 30-40. Now you must be wonering what the F is my point? Look up the GPU on every site you know, and it'll say it can't run The Witcher 2 at all, can't run SW:FU on recommended, Can't run DMC 4 on high, can't run Saints row at all, and the most surprising, it runs Metro 2033 on high at 24-25 and medium at ~40.
Can anyone explain why my GPU seems to be super amped or why do sites have misleading reviews and benchmarks for my GPU?
Thanks
