Optimising Graphics

[mrhotdog]

Hey
Ive got a acer aspire 3680 and im just wondering how i can get the maximum graphics quality from it (ive been told that buying a graphics card isnt an option)? its got 2.5GB ram in atm

read up and see if you can overclock the chipset of that model, is it a laptop or a desktop?

It's a laptop, first rule of over clocking, don't do it on a laptop (and yes you CAN'T put a new graphics card in)

Bad news scro, get a new laptop.

[SMURFTEC.]

is it very old or new? but ive got a netbook that does pretty well overclocked so dont rule it out if its your only option, just be willing to cool it well haha

[cdtoaster]

i thought they removed overclocking options from laptop bios' what brand is it?

[ari666]

you can install a custom bios, usually downloadable from the net, but i wouldnt. OC'ing means more heat and you cant get heat out of a lappy that easily.

lol yeh i dont think i would OC my lappy or any lappy, mines on full settings already and it pretty much burns my skin how hot it gets lol.. but runs fairly good tho shame they only come with like a 5cm fan haha
