Yeah.
My previous laptop was a Dell E1505 as well, with ATI X1400 GPU.
I played Crysis on it without any problem. (At low settings ofc)
And yeah, Hi-Def mkv's played flawlessly.
Its just NVIDIA ,which lacks the processing power in entry level GPUs.

actually my xps gets much higher fps in most games. most of the time double

XPS is genetically altered for giving higher frame rates than an E15xx series :p

I suggest upgrading to the latest drivers and setting the app to real time priority to make the most out of it.

No, dude, i'm pretty sure it's fine running mkv files. :rolleyes:

i figured it out. i ran speedfan while my computer was playing mkv's, playing games, and it turns out i had a serious overheating problem. i had dell come in and reinstall a new heatsink + thermal paste, and now i idle at 45C instead of 57C. now my mkv files play perfectly.

Thanks Abu! I'll try using speedfan to see if I'm having the same overheating issue.

OK, I've just installed speedfan and it shows that my GPU is at 84C and my cores are at about 66C. I haven't even played any sort of video file yet either. I've never used speedfan before but compared to the number that Abu had...it doesn't look too good.

I got a laptop cooling pad and now my movies run just fine. I guess it really was just an over heating issue.
