Dell :: Studio 15: 256mb Vs 512mb Ati 4570

Aug 11, 2009

I'm planning on purchasing a Dell Studio 15 and I want it to play games like Grand Theft Auto 4 smoothly.

Now my question is, I have $1120 to spend, and can either afford to upgrade the video card to 512mb, OR keep it at 256mb and upgrade my HD to 500gb from 250gb. So will my fps and quality increases be significant enough to justify upgrading the video card to 512mb or would the 256mb suffice.

current build specs:
Intel Core 2 Duo T6500 2.1ghz
vista home premium x64
4gb ram
5400rpm HD

Dell :: 256MB Or 512MB Graphic Card On Studio

Feb 22, 2009

I don't play games too often. But I do watch videos & movies & sometimes work on photoshop or GIMP. So will 512MB graphic card make a huge difference compared to 256MB graphic card in my case?

Apple :: 9600M GT 256MB Vs 512MB

Apr 10, 2009

I been watching Crysis gameplay footage on Youtube and have noticed some pop up on the lower spec MBP.

Would foliage appearing as if by magic be a result of having less memory in the GPU? or would it be down to system memory, the CPU or another factor I'm unaware of?

HP/Compaq :: Mobility HD 3450 256mb Or 512mb

Mar 3, 2009

I have hp dv7-1110eg

I have this card in my laptop .... Mobility Radeon HD 3450 ... my system recognizes it as 512 of video ...

But the internet does not find a Mobility Radeon HD 3450 - 512mb... is normal?

That is giving me problems with video, black screens constantly...

It also takes video 1024gb ... so I have 1700gb of video ...

How can I change these values?

I can make it 512? not to touch the RAM

Dell :: Resident Evil 5 On Studio 1555 4570 512 Mb

Feb 18, 2010

just now tested resident evil 5 from Capcom on my dell studio 1555 Windows 7. with direct x 9 , resolution 1280x720 and all maxed out...

at this point game is pretty playable with huge eye candy @ 20Fps...! i know this is not good...

so reduced the settings removed the shadows and texture detail and achieved solid 30 fps with 720 p. ..

that was good and satisfying.. then playing with a xbox controller with good vibration and controlls..

hope it would help some one before downloading the game ...

Dell :: Studio 1555 Radeon 4570 256meg Vs 512meg

Apr 22, 2009

I'm almost ready to order my Studio 1555... just can't decide if I should pay extra for the 512meg card.

I read the Graphics Card FAQ here, which says 256 meg is enough to handle all modern games.... but that FAQ was written in 2006.

For today's games, is 256Meg of video memory enough to load up high-resolution textures in a game?

Nothing worse than powerful CPU + decent graphics card running a beautiful looking game that suddenly starts stuttering because more textures are being loaded into graphics memory!

Dell :: Driver On Studio 1555 With Mobility Radeon HD4570 512MB

Oct 13, 2009

I've decided to try and play some games on it, only to find out I have some serious problems with it..

I've tried two different games, and the result is the same in both - the computer will hang about 1 minute after launching the game and only hard shutdown is possible (holding the power button)..

After doing a little analysis of the memory dump, I found out the graphics driver is the one to blame.................................

Feb 12, 2013

Dell Studio 1555 (P7350 with ATI 512MB Graphic card) is not able to boot.

1. RAMs seems good. (2 beeps when removed, and no beep after installation)

2. Display seems OK (8 beeps when disconnected, and no beep when connected)

3. HDD is good. (Tested with other laptop)

After pressing the power button (can see the power light ON), no display, no beep, & fan doesn't start. 

Is it a motherboard FAILURE? What do I need to do ?

I can diassemble and reassemble it ????

Dell :: Studio 1555 W/4570 GPUlow Desktop Graphics Score But High Gaming Graphics Score From WEI

Dec 17, 2009

Just purchased a 1555 with the radeon 4570 512mb GPU, Windows 7 64-bit, and performance is generally very good apart from one strange result. Windows experience index reports the following -

Processor - 5.7
Memory - 5.8
Graphics - 4.9
Gaming Graphics - 6.3
hard disk - 5.9

So the only low result is the desktop aero graphics performance at 4.9, which seems strange when the 3D businnes/gaming graphics score is 6.3. Other results i've seen posted on forums of the Windows 7 WEI scores are usually the same for desktop graphics and 3D graphics in Windows 7, which I would have expected as I understood that aero uses the GPU similarly to games. If anything, it looked like in most results the desktop graphics scores were slightly higher than the gaming graphics scores.

Does anyone know why I could be getting a lot lower desktop graphics score compared to gaming graphics?

I've checked the graphics drivers are up to date.

Can anybody else post their Windows 7 WEI scores from the 1555 with the 4570 512mb GPU?

Dell :: Releases New ATI 4570 Drivers!!! And Fail!

Oct 16, 2009

i couldn't believe that dell has finally released new drivers for our Ati Mobility Radeon 4570!!

Driver 8.631

Release Date: 12 October 2009

I didn't see any benefit really in installing the the mobility modder drivers(was on 9.9). My COD4 was dropping to 20fps on occasions and I only play in 1280x720 with modest settings! I thought that game ran really well even on the Nvidia 8600Ms according to so many people. But COD4 runs pretty badly on my PC, gets my GPU to hit 88C even when I'm letting it breathe and all and makes me kind of depressed.

I uninstalled everything and installed these new Dell drivers. The drivers installed, but the CCC is messed up. See attached picture for the error I get when I try opening it. Clicking on "Advanced View" gets me nothing.. Nothing shows up at all. I reinstalled the 9.9 CCC ONLY, still the same error message.

Anyone else having the same problem? Could you atleast help me with why my 4570 is performing so poorly?

Dell :: Nvidia GeForce GO 8600M GT 256MB

Mar 24, 2009

My new laptop has the Nvidia GeForce GO 8600M GT 256MB graphics card in it according to the Dell listing.

I can find mention of Nvidia GeForce 8600M GT 256MB without the word GO in the title all over the net and it doesn't look to bad.

So I'm wondering, is the word GO in the title of my card suggesting that perhaps I have a down scaled version / cheaper version or are they the same thing and same performance?

Anyone know any alterative laptops with like double gfx performance with same portability

Sony :: VAIO SR ATI 4570 Driver Update To V9.6 Guide

Jul 21, 2009

From browsing the forums, i see that everyone is having trouble updating their drivers. Mobility modder currently does not support the ATI 4 series but there is still a way to install the drivers for us fortunuately . By doing this, you are able to install the display driver v9.6 but no CCC unforunately; however you can still retain the CCC v9.2 from Sony's official drivers.

1> Download the appropriate version OS of the 9.6 driver from [url]

2> Double click the file you just download and click install. It will unzip a folder to C:ATI (default). These are driver files. When the actual installation wizard comes up, cancel it.

3> Browse to C:ATI9-6_beta_win7_64_dd_CC (Driver name, e.g.)PackagesDriversDisplayW7_INF (For 32-bit) OR W76A_INF (for 64-bit)

**Btw, I am doing this example based on the Window 7 Install. (Other versions of the OS should be the same except the INF file name may be different)**

4> I am under 64-bit so I will use W76A_INF as an example for this guide. Double click on the INF file (for W7, it is named C7_81757)

5> Scroll down the file until you see a list like;

"ATI Radeon HD 2400 XT" = ati2mtag_RV610, PCIVEN_1002&DEV_94C1&SUBSYS_0D021002
"ATI Radeon HD 2900 PRO" = ati2mtag_R600, PCIVEN_1002&DEV_9400&SUBSYS_30001002
"ATI Radeon HD 2900 XT" = ati2mtag_R600, PCIVEN_1002&DEV_9400&SUBSYS_25521002

6> Add this anywhere between the entries you see above (does not have to be exact, just place this entry somewhere along the lines of the WHOLE list)
"ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4570" = ati2mtag_M9x, PCIVEN_1002&DEV_9553&SUBSYS_9033104D
Congratulations, the display driver can now be installed ONLY VIA the HAVE DISK method.

7> Quick review on HAVE DISK method; Device Manager > Right Click ATI 4570 then Update Driver Software > Browse my computer > Let me pick a list of Device drivers... > Have Disk > (Now browse to the INF file you just edited, in this example; the C7_81757 inf file.) Install, voila, DONE.

8> Now, to get the CCC v9.2 (Can't get 9.6 yet), get Sony's ATI drivers, run it and click on CUSTOM install, NOT EXPRESS, install CCC only and anything that is mandatory (DO NOT INSTALL THEIR DISPLAY DRIVERS!!!) .Voila, CCC 9.2 function (which is the same as 9.6 essentially).

I believe this method works for NW series w/ ATI 4570 too.

HP/Compaq :: DV4-1000EA Video Performance (256mb Nvidia 9200m GS)

Jan 11, 2009

Recently purchased DV4-1000ea as follows;

2.26Ghz P8400 Core2Duo
2GB RAM
250GB HDD
256MB Dedicated (1024MB Shared) NVidia 9200m GS.

I liked the idea of the laptop having a HDMI output to connect to my TV to watch movies etc downloaded on iTunes. I thought the graphics card was going to be ample given that my housemates Macbook with 32mb shared graphics works just fine.

However, I am really disappointed with the graphics performance playing High quality video, in particular, H264 Quicktime files.

For example, I have downloaded a few 720p trailers from the apple website and torrent sites and when playing, the videos are choppy in most scenes and speech is not in sync with video a lot of the time. This is true for display on the laptop screen, as well as display on TV via HDMI.

I have checked CPU usage whilst such clips are playing and it's running quite comfortably at 40-50%.

I have downloaded the latest NVidea drivers from the NVidia website (version 7928).

Also, even music video previews in itunes (and subsequent previews) are choppy and out of sync whilst playing. I have tried apples suggestions of turning off 3d accleleration for DirectX but it makes things worst.

Dell :: Precision M6300 With FX 3600M (512MB)

Jul 9, 2008

this short review was already posted by me in the dell 17" section,
but i'll put it here, too, so it is easier accessable for all forum users.
it is also a little different, since i added a few things, which i noticed
while playing around with the laptop.

DELL Precision M6300

a few days ago i got my precision m6300 notebook from dell.
so far i benchmarked it with 3dmark06 and took a short look at it.
i payed 1483 euro and the laptop came with the following options:

core2duo t8300 2.4GHz/3MB L2 cache
nvidia fx 3600m card with 512MB
2GB 667MHz RAM (upgraded to 3GB myself)
200GB HDD 7200rpm (seagate)
1440x900 non glare display (lg, replaced by a samsung)
fingerprint reader
vista business to xp professional downgrade (you can use both)
3 years international guarantee

1. 3dmark06

i did the 3dmark06 benchmark at stock clock speeds (i think it's 500/799) with the stock dell driver 175.75. i am running the preinstalled xp pro operation system and most unnecessary background processes are disabled. i have:

8860 3dmarks

with a light overclock (600/900) i have:

9686 3dmarks

i think that's pretty nice. considering the slower cpu (2.4GHz vs. 2.8GHz) and the 175.75 stock dell driver, which is not optimized for gaming, the performance comes pretty close to the 8800GTX in the alienware/ notebooks (~9200 3marks) and it is pretty much the same like the mySN notebook's with the same processor (~8900 3dmarks).
this fact makes me think, that the fx3600 is probably rather a modified 8800gtx card than a gts and that the info shown by gpu-z is wrong. but who knows.

as the card can be overclocked even higher and also there is a way to oc the cpu, the notebook is able to get 10.000+ in 3dmark06.

btw: overclocking is very easy, you can just do it with ntune and there is no need to flash the vbios.

2. what's new

the notebook is very similar to the inspiron 9400/e1705 i had before.

the differences are:

a. different colour (makes it look a lot better)
b. the useless media direct button is used to switch between performance and battery save mode now (useful)
c. the battery is stronger (4 hours battery life vs. 2.5 hours)
d. fingerprint reader available................................
