It's a concern of most Clevo machines out there and is one reason why most people are going after Alienware or MSI or another brand of some sort. tongue.gif

Oh. Yeah I have literally no problems with framerates. I used to in some DX11 games but 12.8 sorted out pretty much any issue I had. It really is too bad that the 7970M has had problems in Clevo machines, it's a great card in a great computer. They overclock nicely which is always a bonus. biggrin.gif

Yeah I got one in my R2 and it's scary how fast these GPUs are getting. >.< It's kinda sad really. This laptop is the fastest machine I've ever possessed to date. o.x
