[ Edited ]

I am an owner of a dv7t with 7690m xt, very upset about the horrible performance of the computer, being unable to play games. HP costumer service department will do nothing for you. They have no pride in their company, nor do they have any honor or integrity to help their consumers with legitimate issues. [Legal Discussion Removed]. Hopefully that does something. Shame on you HP.

Re: 7690M GPU = HP HORRIBLE DRIVER SUPPORT

Just dont sit back and take this abuse. Everyone FIGHT BACK!!! Dont allow HP to run all over its customers. Show them we have a voice. Do something, do everything you can to bring this issue to HP's attention. I will not let a day go by without informing someone to either NOT PURCHASE A HP PRODUCT, or to message someone of our HORRIBLE HP ISSUES regarding the 7690 gpu installed laptops. SHOW HP WE DO HAVE A VOICE!!!

Re: 7690M GPU = HP HORRIBLE DRIVER SUPPORT

I'm so stoked to hear you got it, and so far you like it. Don't waste time on youtube, just install some games and tell us how it does, does it come close to Futuremark.coms numbers? The only way I was able to get the 7690xt to get close to the numbers futuremark was to drop resolution to 800x600, an thats' just sad when you have to go that small to acheive graphics quality that should begin at a computers native resolution.

 

On another hand, my shipped a couple of days ago, but seems to be hoverring in shaghai, I just hope the plane doesn't run out of fuel and crash, :smileyfrustrated: I mean they did say estimated ship date of the 24th, heaven forbid they get something right, :smileyvery-happy:. I know, I know, I got a twisted sense of ironic humor.

Re: 7690M GPU = HP HORRIBLE DRIVER SUPPORT

So my laptop exchange (the one with 650m 2gb)  was supposed to come today by 4:30pm. Tracking says its stuck in newark, nj. I called fedex up and they said it was late or something.. They said they will "try" to have it tomorrow. I have had so much bad luck with hp & fedex.. when will this grief end.

Re: 7690M GPU = HP HORRIBLE DRIVER SUPPORT

Yes, please tell us how it plays games.  Also does Nvidia Drivers (which I am sure are newer then the ones pre-installed on the laptop) install on your HP laptop?

Re: 7690M GPU = HP HORRIBLE DRIVER SUPPORT

i will answer all these questions sometime tomorrow guys.

I went to see Avengers in IMAX 3D earlier today (excellent movie btw) so I didn't have much time.

 

I just got done reformatting the system and will spend all day tomorrow installing up to date drivers/games.

 

I'll let you know as soon as i can

Re: 7690M GPU = HP HORRIBLE DRIVER SUPPORT

Now i have 2 reason to hate you: 1 - You got your new laptop and hopefully can do everything we are suppose to on it, 2 - Seeing the Avengers in IMAX.  Never have children they take away from fun time and from Daddy seeing the Avengers :smileyhappy:

Re: 7690M GPU = HP HORRIBLE DRIVER SUPPORT

Wow according to Futuremark the jump the speed increases of your systems from the last dv7t to your new one is as follows:

i7-2670 (pcmark 4200 avg) to i7-3610 (pcmark 6000 avg) 30% increase

7690m XT (3dmark 1350) to 650m (3dmark 2100) 45% increase

Thats a nice boost!!!
