I just got hired into a place where I need a laptop. I need to find a good cheap laptop new or used for under 500$. Mostly for business, but wouldn't mind having it for fun occasionally, and something I could use when I travel.
Any suggestions?
I fixed it by downloading Rivatuner and having that force Vsync and Triple Buffering. CCC is a joke. The thing now is, with those forced im getting some slowdown.
I first noticed this when I booted up stalker. The videos of the logo's and shit that usually happen when you play again, well.. for some reason I watched them and noticed that the videos were tearing with horizontal lines. Especially True for the opening game video and then also true when ever...
Just ran a trial version of 3dMark Advantage. Evaluation settings.
