Download CPU-Z. from CPUID site.

I downloaded GPU Z, and it still ignored the Nvidia card.

Ahh it doesn't recognise it as the main card. If there is no drop down on CPU-Z to show the Nvidia card I suggest you post this also on the L501x thread as will be the same problem and might get an answer quicker. sorry all I can suggest.

I read previously somewhere that you have to activate it before it can pick it up, such as running a game or something...

Oh, cpu z worked

Here are my graphics card specs:

Core: 590 MHz
Shaders: 1180 MHz
Memory: 900 MHz

Also, do you know how to take a picture of a single window?

Same as GT445 but with 100Mhz more on memory...nice

I think people use Image shack but not something i tried, im sure someone here will answer.

I have a question.

When I click on the memory tab in CPU-Z, it says:

DRAM Frequency. 665.2 MHz

Does this mean my memory is only 666 MHz? or is it somehow operating at half frequency (It's supposed to be 1333MHz).

Same with the GPU. It's at 50, 101, 135 MHz for core/shaders/memory at the moment. Does it increase when it needs to?

Also, CPU-Z says I have 4 memory slots.

Time to play starcraft

Thisisdom, Alt+Print Screen will take a screen cap of the active window only.

DRAM changes according to what you are using

GPU will change if you use the drop down and change to 3D applications

Not sure whether it shows 4 slots as standard because i do have 4

Thanks

Just played Starcraft 2 for a bit.

Got around 40+ fps average in ultra (1600x900). I'll do a more accurate benchmark soon.
