Crysis XPS m1530 Demonstration

[Flipknight28]

would starcraft 2 be able to play on the xps m1530? I got pretty much same specs as you except I have 1.67 ghz instead of the upgraded 2.2ghz.

[spiderschwein11111]

what is the name of the second song? Which starts a 6.32 ? The first is Bob Marley but the second, i dont know! Nice VId

[XxWARGASM718xX]

does this game work on dell xps 625?

[spiderschwein11111]

sure, even with the cheapest basic version with HD4850 it will run pretty good. I had the same Graphicscard and i was able to run all high on 1280x800 resolution.

[dyeom]

wow i cant decide

m1530 or studio 16 for gaming

[knockdoun]

Wow thats pretty sad

[ITAPE4JESUS]

im planin on savin up for this laptop , on some review site , it was ranks 4.5/5 from over 1,000 people! i want to be able to run cod4,crysis,far cry 2, and gears of war on it , does this computer do the job , please reply!

[jeffro282]

m1530 does the job for all of those. I'm not sure if they can all be ran on max graphics, but they for sure can be ran.

[flyingpiggg1]

it will play them but not maxed

[nhnt11]

except crysis, these games can be maxed if you overclock.

on cod4 i get around 35-40 fps, max detail settings @ 1280x800 (which is my native)

8600M GT clocked at 650/1350/900

temps around 85

i love this laptop! 4.5/5 easily! (i didnt get to upgrade my processor from the preset)

[jbuz101]

is 8600m GT better than 8400M GS? (thats what i have) i wanna play aion, but i dunno if i can. i have a xps m1530 2.1ghz intel core2 duo. slightly overclocked my gpu. temps at 65 celsius. (should i push the overclocking a lil more?)

[mourajini]

which is better ATI Mobility RADEON® HD 3670 - 512MB4 or 256MB NVIDIA® GeForce® 8600M GT?

respond please!

[cheggerspiderpig7]

notebookcheck says that the radeon hd3670 is on performance like a 9500M GS.

The 9500M GS is exactly the 8600M GT only another name.

Maybe the ATI is a bit faster

[Kage999]

@cheggerspiderpig7 right thats true. I have the 8700M gt and that is the same as a 9650M GT. Slightly faster then 9600M GT

[WoodstockLacrosse]

is it hard to put windows xp on this laptop?

[13Sakke13]

Vista is ok if you got high RAM...

[liascm]

you put in the disc and install it, i wouldnt say that was hard

[xilefx]

does I get more FPS when i run/use fraps??

[flanker271]

I noticed that resolution affects frame per second more than game settings. If you put everything on high but using 800x600, the gameplay is nice and smooth. If you put everything on medium but use 1440x900, the gameplay is choppy. Medium on high resolution does look better though. Ultra-high setting on high-definition resolution, now that's something I'd like to experience in the future!

[flanker271]

this is not smooth at all

[axelbromer]

does recording the gameplay have that effect though? i'm not sure. i agree though it isn't amazingly smooth.

[ChuckStrz]

lovin tha music lmao

[holysht332]

lmao yeh fits rite in

[ChuckStrz]

nothin like som reggae n killin ppl lmao

[Darbyjack]

Finally, a video of a game that doesn't have shitty heavy-rock music that 14 year old girls listen to.

[xilefx]

i have the T9300, 8600GT nd 1440x900 in mine. nd when I play crysis i have the settings evrything medium. and the gameplay is okey...

[zombieofparty]

somethings messed up with your computer mate my dell studio 15 runs crysis......... at low settings...

[fjayrockst]

i got the t9300 intell core 2 duo in mine

[flight212121]

can a c2d 2.5 can help in fps?

[aisles23]

I've tried to get it back to XP and its not good... I searched a lot, 1. I made it to recognize the HD, then I looked for XP driver, but most of them are only made to vista, I red a lot forums, download alternative drivers... I was pissed off, so I went back to Vista, anyway, this machine is so powerfull that now I almost like Vista ahah, I even run pro tools on it, very fast and reliable... that's my advice friends.(my pc is an xps m1530,3gb ram,2.4processor,256mb video)

[maddog7771]

if your pc cant run crysis had it must be from the stone age i played it on a 2000 alieware single core 1.8 core with one gig of ram and a 256agp card also if you thinking well thats because its an alienware well i have an old 2004 hp livestrong edition that can also play it and it has an amd 1.8 single core with agig of ram and a ati 128mb video card so if you dont think your rig cant take it than just tone down the settings and upgrade your card and kill vista

[wywern209]

wha tis the song?

[protocaldroid117]

bob marly's the artist

[jmstewart93]

Stir it up is the name of the song, and yes it's Marley

[feytertom]

today Crysis is a game for the absolute minority of the pc-users since its a game that really rely on graphics! maybe in half a year or a year, we'll see that people can actually afford a computer to run crysis! and bioschock is definetly superior, because of the story and action, and finally bioshock has an actual atmosphere.

[armoredcavalry]

I don't think many people play it on a daily basis, (at least after playing through single player). I use it more for a benchmark. :P

[aschulz90]

I have basically the same laptop, got it for school. Only difference is the proc speed (I just got the one up from yours). Results look Identical though.

[pacman80500]

wow,,,, i want one, its alsogood for school and crap like that since it deosnt gather much attention like the m1730 :}

[rrUmass12]

great computer. great song.

[joel0165]

A review on the dell website said that this model M1530 XPS is not compatible with Windows XP... can anyone shed any light on this?

[JoBingles]

you can still install xp on it. it is just a little more complicated. if you google it you should come up with some guides or better answers on some forums!

[MadBoyAstro]

Yea I installed XP on mine, but the drivers that are compatible with it can actually be found on the m1730's support page, and I tried installing m1330 drivers on it, but they didn't work, but the m1730's worked :D

[caboos09]

nice i have the DEll XPS 1730,T9300 2.5ghz core 2 duo, 4gb ram, 2X Nvidia GeForce 8700 gt SLI.

[tube2a]

I can run it just as well on high and i only payed 1,250 bucks for my laptop :) and got crysis free.

[SmashkingX]

I have basically everything you do, except I have a T5550 processor, is that enough to play this game?

[panzeram]

This game recommends 2.5Ghz Core 2 Duo.

Thats a T9300, T5550 is a 1.83Ghz I believe, you will be able to play it, just not on crazy settings. Maybe medium.

[munga42]

mmm... its all black

[vetle12]

NICE MUSIC !

[Dumpduckcom]

How hot does it get whilst playing crysis!? Is heat a problem?

[kartboy1234]

very hot.

[kartboy1234]

this laptop cannot play it on high. I have the 1530 with 2.4Ghz,3 gigs ram, nvidia 8600 and if I put it on high then it freaks out and takes 5 minutes to load the menu let alone the actual game.

[mGARANDEUR1]

Crysis is not made to run as efficiently as some other modern games. Most computer (even new) struggle to play this game. Doom 3 had the same problem back in the day.

[kartboy1234]

My desktop can play it on high.

[wywern209]

no, the hardware out right now is not meant to play this game, it is the best game but meant to be played on stuff from the future.

[kartboy1234]

I know I had to take my delorean to 2015 and get my desktop but now its work it.their is nothing like playing this game at 1920-1200 resolution on very high.

[wywern209]

it is made to run as efficiently as possible. todays computers do not have the hardware to run it. nothing is wrong iwh the game. only that hardware is lacking.

[wywern209]

it can play on high, just not on super res n stuff. u know like 1024 or somethin. medium is ur best bet. get adesktop to play on high.

[kartboy1234]

mine plays it on very high

[jpkiddo123]

if it can play cryis well then it can definetly play wow max or almost max, tytytyty, im definetly getting this pc now, you have stopped my only worry :D.

[Averlinden11]

what resolution would u reconnmend for crysis?

1280x800 or 1440x900

[IAjerome]

Yo, i just got mine 3 days ago, its all good, but when i run the crysis demo, theres far too much pop up even close  up

[bodom658]

nice... im getting one of these computers, same processor and vid card, and 4 gigs of ram, in about a week. Looks like im buying crysis too.

[FraggedRabbit]

Bob Marly was a nice touch.

[bodom658]

yeah, perfect for this video

[Slipknotflow]

Laggy Laggy.

[olympus9999]

Bob marley - Stir it up

[Nalind123]

pardon me for my ignorance, but what's the name of the song?(please mention the artist too) thanks!

[jpkiddo123]

sounds like bob marley, im guessing the song is hysteria, but im not sure.

[Averlinden11]

the song is stir it up. not hysteria

[wywern209]

also rumor has it that dell is going to put 9600m gt in m1530 yay!!

[wywern209]

thats in the refresh model in october.

[scouthenge]

The M5130 wont be getting a better graphics card because the 8800gt etc are made for higher resolution (bigger screen) laptops.

If you want something beyond the 8600gt your going to have to go for a 17 inch

[edit808]

Wrong the m15x from alienware is a 15.4 laptop and it has a 8800m GTX card get your facts straight. It has nothing to do with Size of the monitor it has everything to do with the form factor of the laptop and how much heat the card generates.

[maddogau1]

Everything true there but it only goes up to 8600m GTX card but u can upgrade it from dell for a whole heap of money!

[wywern209]

vVhybridVv, why don't you play at a higher res, its possible with the m1530.

[wywern209]

im get a m1530 to play crysis and call of duty 4

[wywern209]

is he playing in dx 9 or 10 mode im guessing dx 9 mode cause dx10 high would most likely set his computer on fire

[Tobaman111]

Anyone think XPS is going to offer a higher video card option anytime soon? I'm about the buy the m1530 with the best hardware options, unless anyone is privy to this sort of information. I just want to play Crysis and use it for school. Thanks.

[wywern209]

there are rumors flying around that dell will soon put 8700m gt or 8800m gtx in the m1530s in a few months so if i were you i woulsd stay put for a few months thenpurchase if no changes occur and if something does change, just send your comp back to dell in 30 days and you will be given a full refund

[Tobaman111]

Thanks. I might as well wait. I won't need it until August, though I'll be anxiously twiddling my thumbs waiting for Dell to improve this option.

[wywern209]

coincidentally, im getting mine in august as well!! OMG

[Equilibrium03]

will the price jump up a lot then? I would wait if it gets a better vid card and the price stays around the same cause of my limited budget.

[Slipknotflow]

Lmao, it lags just in the Menus o_O

[wywern209]

i think the vid is lagging a bit, don't know if game or bad vid but ok, like the gun fire aNIMATION JUST SEEMS OFF

[Vegard39]

Still looks good on medium, decent rig for decent price. It seems to play well enough for jazz!

[UberBjorn]

the only game youll ever need is Battlefield 2,as long as it can play BF2 in full grafics then you wont need a better computer =D, that and the computer needs to look good xD

[iordankevlavan]

is it lagging a bit or am i just dumb lol cause im getting the 1530 and i wanna play this game

would oblivion work good? :)

[whiteyonwelfare]

I say save up for the SLI 8800GTX Dell. It's way more powerful than PS3 and 360 and will easily handle Crysis and Future direct x 10 games, or you can get the single 8800GTX Alienware which is 600ish dollars cheaper than the dell.

[iordankevlavan]

thanks ill check it out but i cant spend more then 1999$

[wywern209]

go get the xps 1530

[wywern209]

yeah but it cost like 5k, for that price just the desktop xps 720 h2c or what ever, and the laptop u mentioned wheighs about 10 lbs, hs a 2 lb power brick so go figure.

[edit808]

OR you can get a SAGER NP5793 with a 8800m GTX that is even more cheaper then the overheating crap known as the m15x. BTW if size isnt an issue the SAGER NP5793 comes with a 17" monitor and isnt monster looking like the HEAVY dell M1730

[hhanatarouu]

I've tried it on oblivion, and there's almost no lag at all, didn't check the framrates, but everythings on max/high

[xienxien2001]

the game looks amazing on medium settings anyways so u can get framerates in the 20's-30's on medium settings =)

[wazzonline]

this is bizarree and what a sheer coincidence. On Thursday i bought both the M1530 laptop (for work purposes with high spec) AND the Crysis game to play on my Home PC. After watching this clip, ive just realised i could play the game on my new laptop without any problems. EXCELLENT LOOOOOL

[havoc11707]

where do u get an 8600 ifit doesnt come with ur laptop?

[Arabman666]

8600gt is optional on Dell XPS M1530's

[havoc11707]

no but i mean from a store

[Arabman666]

I'm pretty sure you have to order it online if you wish it to be presnt in the XPS. Not sure if stores sell them. Maybe best buy, but im skepticle. Tom's hardware should help you out, look them up online.

[imrlybord71]

What drivers are you using?

[gunnerdelta]

Does downgrading to XP from vista really improve your gameplay by much?

[Lysix]

No.

[gunnerdelta]

I just ordered the m1530 from del,same specs,Cant wait!

[thomasrawfo]

ty great vid :)

[ginodeman]

Hi,

I have the same laptop, same specs etc.

But i want to install XP, please tell me where you found the drivers.

Thanks!

[cheeno708]

wats wrong with vista it wont work with it

[gunnerdelta]

Thanks, idiot computer companys like to drill in peoples heads that you need a 4-5 Thousand dollar computer to run crysis.

im getting this labtop this week <3

i am looking forward to crysis =)

[xXSinsearXx]

You don't need a 4-5 thousand dollar computer to run crysis but you do need one to run it very well. When I say very well, I mean with everything maxed. However, I have such a computer but I custom built it and most of my friends did as well; I don't see many people these days buying that expensive of a desktop for gaming from large companies. (Maybe laptops, since its hard to custom build a laptop).

[gunnerdelta]

My Labtop (the M1530 cps) just came it,and i play it nicely on Some Maxed,but most on Medium. its all good =)

[joe5100]

where did u get all the drivers so you can use xp?

thanks

[benleonheart]

Update to 169.28 drivers

lets you run the game at all high with med shaders and med shader detail, runs pretty well also.

[ALF891]

Is that noise in the backround the fan??

I got mine a few days ago and the fun goes on every two minutes or so even if I am only internet browsing. I find it a bit noisy

[JoshDaGoodfella]

Its the demo :S

Doesn't take up as much ram as the full version :S

[vVHybridVv]

Huh? Do you mean Hard Drive space? The demo was a Pre-Release demo, meaning the demo is pretty much the full game with only one level. I have the full game now, and it takes up same amount of ram as the demo did, between 800mb to 1024mb usage while playing on all medium/1280x800.

[JoshDaGoodfella]

My bad, I want one lol

[thomasrawfo]

good work im wondering if the same notebook could run cod 4

[vVHybridVv]

Yes, cod4 can be played on almost max settings with good fps.

[Poorestgump]

I'm hopping to get more FPS on a 2.4 ghz at 4 Gram at same card. You think it will cut it without lag on both Crysis and COD4 taht is on high settings?

[PixlFace]

and also wheni watched ur vid again from the start; something is not right..

i am on vista 2,0 ghz and 2 gb ram. on 1280x800 res and as i said all mid, one or two things low and 30fps.

there is not mutch dif from 2,0 to 2,2 ghz here. dont think the ram eaven counts cous i have 2 gb and only 60% of it are in use while gaming.

my G.card also is giving picture to tow screens. one of them are 1680x1050..

[vVHybridVv]

It's because i'm running fraps. Fraps takes off a good 8-10 frames or more when recording. In 1280x800 on medium settings with me tweaking XP, I get 30-60 frames.

[PixlFace]

i am also running fraps mate..

[vVHybridVv]

Running as in recording a video, I highly doubt you get 30-60 frames in 1280x800 all medium settings (which I was recording with halfway through the video).

[vVHybridVv]

*While Recording* that is.

[PixlFace]

i have this laptop with 2,0 ghz and 2 gb ram in vista and i am running crysis on mid/low+ with about 30 fps.. love my xps m1530<3

[vVHybridVv]

I recommend formatting with windows XP, vista tends to hog both RAM and CPU and i've had better results with XP. Tweak you're operating system so there is 15 or less processes running and few services. Run on medium settings in 1280x800 and you should have a stable 30-60 frames the whole playthrough. I do not recommend overclocking, since it's a laptop. If you're desperate to get a few more frames, get a mid ranged system that costs around $1,000 dollars and overclock that.

[zwitekcom]

Not bad... I bought myself one. Can't wait to see it. This is one of the best laptops available now. Thanks for this video.

[kevin94choi]

what do u recommend the medium setting or the high settings?
