is the dual ati 5870m mutch better than the dual 4870m ???

@XxXCssCRazYXxX

It's anywhere from 10-15% faster depending on which game you are testing. Most games I've tested the difference tends to be on average 10% although the minimum fps for the dual 5870s can be up to 20% faster.

@chaklong i have an m17x r2 and it runs modern games pretty smooth.. there could be really something wrong with your rig sir. Try updating to latest graphics drivers and always avoid pirated/torrented games as they slow down your rig.

@chaklong What is your computers setup? It's not hard to upgrade the commonents of you M17x.

huh, I have a Alienware M17x R2, and I CANNOT run modern games on highest video settings without getting ass performance.
