RE: g73jh - jagernaut - 04-01-2012
I have a 120 Corsair Force drive on its way.... Had to RMA it because it took a dump on me. As far as the ram it came with 6gigs i upgraded to 8.... You Really think i need 12 for dolphin? And the throttle stop i thought that they fixed the throttle in the new bios update, which i already installed. i get a 21x multiplier.... Or is it the same as OC a cpu in a desktop jack up the FSB and the voltage (Crude of me saying that i know) until you get desired effects
PS already have 64bit installed fresh with the newest drivers from the asus web site. Do you know if there are any better drivers for the Graphics card. I know OMEGA use to put out some good driver for cards but they stopped due to lack of funding.

Dolphins memory usage is pretty low, for win7 4GB is more than enough

2. Buy a new hard drive (Seriously as an owner of the same laptop, I bet you witness many problems like computer freeze or even BSOD. This caused by the stock hard drive that came inside the laptop, I really don’t know why but many users of the laptop have this problem)
_2Gb of Ram for Dolphin 32bit
_4Gb of Ram for Dolphin 64bit
2. Not sure about this . Just get Intel SSD if you have something to spend , you won't gain any FPS though

throttle stop was for a small performance boost but it you can clocked the cpu to 3.2ghz. http://forum.notebookreview.com/asus-gaming-notebook-forum/477553-asus-g51j-a1-i7-720qm-overclocked-properly.html

i don't think so
He can try ICC optimized builds, notebooks benefits from them.RE: g73jh - jagernaut - 04-03-2012

Any recommendations on which and where?
RE: g73jh - DefenderX - 04-03-2012
Well, notebooks with newer i3/i5/i7 CPUs can benetif from ICC builds, because this newer CPUs have all Streaming SIMD Extensions + AVX support included. Anyway, all notebook SHOULD benefit from ICC builds, i've only experinece with newer iX CPUs so i dunno much about other notebook CPUs (Core 2 Duo etc) and how they perform with ICC builds.
Well, i don't want to advertise for ICC builds (neobrain doesn't like them
). Just try and choose the build, which works best for you. (doesn't matter if ICC or normal build)
RE: g73jh - jagernaut - 04-03-2012
So do i just plug and chug until i find a good one. Im getting about 60-65% with sonic colors and ive tried about 4 builds so far.... Should i keep this up?
