Great card !!

EVGA GeForce GT 640 4GB DDR3 PCI Express 3.0 x16 Graphics Card 04G-P4-2649-KR

Pros: it runs every game at medium to high settings. I have tested every game I own and it has exceeded my expectations thus far. My WEI is 7.1 in both visual categories. This card smokes my old Geforce GT 450 1 gb DDR5, and at just a fraction of the power. Great bang for the buck. Its plays MK deception,deadly alliance,armegeddon in 1080 AT 60+ fps with the PCSX2. Emulators love this card. For a sub 100.00 card this will not disapoint

Cons: None as of yet

Amazing

ASUS ROG GL551 series - 15.6" NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960M - Intel Core i7-4720HQ  - 16GB Memory - - Windows 8.1 64-Bit - Gaming Laptop - (GL551JW-DS71 )

Pros: Okay this is my follow up review. Well it continues to exceed my expectations. Shadow of Morridor 70 fps at 1080 medium settings. Mortal Kombat X, all settings high 60+ fps gameplay, 30 fps cut scenes. Dolphin Wii emulation plays at 4k 80 + fps, Crysis 3 medium 1080 60 + fps. Arkham Knight with Windows 10 is butter smooth. Sound is incredible for a laptop. Games for hours with no degradation in performance . Can encode a single Movie in less than five minutes at about 500 fps.

Cons: Battery life while gaming. And it's pointless trying to play any triple A title if not plugged in. And though it can encode a single movie in five minutes it takes twenty minutes to burn

Overall Review: Great Laptop

Great laptop

Pros: Well built . Plays any game while plugged in, don't expect to game if it's not plugged in

Cons: With windows 10 you have no way to use the 960m as the primary gpu to play GTA IV. As a matter of fact you only have a 104 mb's of vram when playing GTA IV. Now GTA V is flawless with tweaked settings at 1080. The biggest flaw is battery life when on the go. And stick with windows 8.1 if you plan on playing GTA IV. Make sure you go into the bios to and change the onboard vram to 500 mb's. Battery life is horrible and useless for gaming on the go. Regardless of settings games lag like hell while the useless battery dies quick

Overall Review: Buy a different laptop to game on the go
