So, I just won some 2 4gb ram from cyberpower holiday crap and I know nothing about computers and such.
regular rams do not work in laptops right?

For Laptops you need to be looking at SO-DIMM's
There's probably some unknown brand that takes full size ddr2/3 ram, but normal laptops have their own sizes.

[QUOTE=Makol;33769611]I feel like upgrading from my two 6870s but I have no idea what to get. Might wait to see what AMD and Nvidia put out in the next two or three months. I'm looking at two GTX 570s or 580s but I think I'd need to upgrade my 750watt Antec psu if I get the GTX 580s.[/QUOTE]
I might be late, but it seems like a waste of money to me.
Money is not a concern.

Money is always a concern unless you won the lottery, atleast wait for the new GPUs first, two 6870s are mighty powerful as is.

I get like 1.5k+ a semester and I make a decent amount housesitting/petsitting. And I really don't think they are. They're struggling to play a lot of games, for example BF3 barely makes it past playable fps on medium. I returned my original two cards because I thought they were defective or something. Nope, the new cards are doing the same thing.
I'm playing BF3 on all high with 4xAA at very playable FPS on a single 6870, what resolution are you running on, triple monitors?

you always post about how you're a macfag but you always post it from windows
It's kind of proof that they are too expensive.
Not that they aren't good, just too expensive.

Because I'm waiting to get my Mac for Christmas. My only other Mac is an eMac that can't even run Chrome.

then how are you a macfag if you don't even own a mac?

I own a Mac, technically. It's just shitty and old.

It's definitely not right then, going by experience and every review I've found a single 6870 can play BF3 on high comfortably and yet both of yours can't on medium, what do you call playable FPS?

this is what i see every single time you post about macs
it isn't blatant fanboyism but okay we get it, you like macs, nobody's going to buy you an "APPLE FANBOY" title no matter how much you post about them
deeps is one of those hypothetical macfags that overhypes apple yet hasn't owned any of their products for about 8 years

At least 30fps is playable to me. On medium I just reach 40fps with 32 being the lowest but that's way too low for those cards. I look at tons of reviews and my cards come no where near to the charts most of the time.
also if you're wondering, yes, I got the laptops over, just got a few funny looks when I was declaring them at customs :v:

Indeed, run GPUz and take a screenshot of the information for both cards and post it, and if possible run a 3dmark11 or vantage to rule out the game being the issue.

Card 2

Vantage: [url]http://3dmark.com/pcmv/480239[/url]
Definitely lower than it should be, although I'm not very savvy on the benchmarks but it says PCmarks not 3Dmarks, unsure on what that means, maybe run a 3dmark 11 at default performance settings?
What's your power supply and motherboard exactly? The second card is running what seems to be a non-2.0 x4 strip or maybe it just doesn't show the 2.0.
