HD 3200/General IGP bench Thread.

[PCMAN123]

Ok i got a new laptop (Dv5z) and it has the awesome HD 3200 IGP and i decided to post how fast it goes and make a thread dedicated to Benches of IGP's Particularly this one (i know a few posts down there is a thread like this but it died)

So far i get preformance wise.

Portal
Highest Settings 1280 x 800 - 40-60 FPS. ~30 Using Fraps

HL2
Highest Settings 1280 x 800 AA/AF is Possible 40FPS+

HL2 EP 1
Highest Settings 1280 x 800 NoAA/AF 25-35FPS (Playable)

Lost Coast (Screens at end) High Settings No AA/AF 30-40FPS

Team Fortress 2 Low/Medium 1280 x 800 25-35 FPS

NFSMW Demo 10x7 Medium Playable (30FPS)







Basically HD 3200 Can play Source Games Well. Also Played COH Demo will bench later.

Yep. Those results were similar to mine when I used the HD3200 (I got a little bit higher frame rate, but I ran at 1024x768)

Know anyway i can get slightly higher. I think somehow i could.

yea HD 3200 is an awesome igp, near identical the 3450.

When i hybrid crossfire though, not much improvment.
Or maybe im just asking too much from 2 64-bit gpus :P

Lower settings? Use the latest catalyst drivers?

I'd say overclocking as well, but laptops have to keep heat down
A minor OC like 50-100mhz shouldn't affect temps too much I guess (But I doubt it'll improve frames too much either)

[PCMAN123]

how would i overclock? I cant in bios (I dont even think i have a bios and if i do i know hp turned it off. a 50-100mhz OC would be a 10-20% Oc. and that could be From 30 -> 36

I did some slight tweaking and closed a few apps and Got from 30 - 36 FPS in lost coast. So im going somewhere.

I have my HD3200 clocked at ~720/420 for the memory.

I'll push the memory a little more and get back to you.

Okay, I have a screenshot of my AMD overdrive settings, and of GPU-z. At stock, I get a stunning 4.0GB/s, but overclocked I get a little bit more.

It didn't get too happy about going over 415 on the memory, so I don't know what I was smoking when I said I'd try and get it over 420.

Doesnt it use your ram as its memory.?

Thats actually amazing for an IGP
Unlike intel's....
