read the posts again pal. I'm surprised it runs this good with 512 on ultra and no overclock. It runs really good at ultra after a minute or so.

schrive, if you want to play with 512MB, that's fine, all we're saying is you don't know what you're missing by going to 1.5GB+. Do whatever you want my man, she's your laptop.

mastah, when you undervolt the CPU it just generates less heat, resulting in a cooler running laptop. The 6800Go overclocks the same as it is voltage limited, but you'll be running much cooler at your max clocks, which is much better for the overall health of the system.

i had the same problem playing doom and half-life, it was fixed when i purchased a kingston 1gb for my 9300, and the laggin has stopped. more ram helps load the frames you see on screen thus less to no lag.

On a side note, I've been running 77.30 (BF2 Beta drivers) for my Geforce 6800, and everything I've run has been smooth, WOW been pushing 60+ fps. Well until I decided to upgrade my drivers to the new 80.40 release, all my scores plummeted to 20fps in game. I rolled back the drivers to 77.30s and i'm back into the 60s now, can't explain why it does it, but you may try an older driver version.

80.40's work fine here, did you do a clean install when you upgraded?

I'm running a 2 ghz xps with 1 gb ram, stock drivers and such, at 1900x1220, high settings, and it's good, except when I open some doors, and the end of RoE is kinda chugging. Is this normal for a non-oc'ed xps, or do I need to do some tweaking. I'm not really using aa

At 1920x1200 that's normal. I go down to 30FPS (1440x900, 2xAA, 8xAF) or so in some places at the end of ROE too. The graphics in ROE have been beefed up a little more from Doom 3, so performance is less in it, but still quite good.
