Gaming laptop performance

dorro6391

Hi I recently ordered a Clevo w370et (Optimus IV from PCSpecialist.co.uk) gaming laptop with an GTX 660M 2gb graphics card, windows 8, i3 dual core processor, 128gb Kensington SSD.

But so far any games I try to run seem to be very poor in FPS rates and scree tearing and some games won't even install compatibility issues maybe??

I heard this card is quite powerful and should be able to play new PC games at medium settings.

I haven't downloaded any drivers or anything yet couldn't find any?

I'm new to PC gaming is there anything I'm missing here??? An kind of optimization I need to do or tips for getting better performance in games?

Thanks in advance guys

well according to this you should be able to run most games at a high setting

have you installed the Nvidia driver for this card?

Screen tearing sounds like it could be a driver issue, try reinstall your drivers. Also that wouldn't be very high-spec so you'll likely need to turn down the graphics a bit. Some games can struggle without quad-core as well (black ops for example).
How much RAM do you have?

You need to turn the nvidia optimus thing on, otherwise it won't use your gpu at all.
