Probably the new laptop he bought. Should have waited though because skylake just came out which gave a huge performance jump for laptops.
Sykotik:
Nothing special, bare bones stock, slightly dated Model of Laptop. I personally would consider it is quite a decent rig considering I have never been a fan of Toshibaâs or Gatewayâs at all. I am planning on doubling the Ram to see if I can get it to run a bit smoother.
I am sure it is locked at 8, or I would double down and run it on 16Gb RamâŚstill might if I can find anything on âUNLOCKING RAM LIMITSâ
I wouldnât get 16gb, get 8gb. Unless youâre doing rendering or stuff that will require 16gb.

Sykotik:
Yeah I was thinking 16Gb was overkill after I put that out thereâŚ
16gb really isnât overkill. I actually would never go with anything less as I can easily hit 7gb while playing games like H1Z1. You are basically out of luck on upgrading anything besides your HDD. I would really consider buying a SSD.
BTW those test are stupid and you really canât judge anything off of them. They just pull the minimum specs the developers suggest and compare it to what you have. More than likely you can still run it without everything passing.
Yeah, Iâm on a Haswell laptop and Iâm regretting not waiting for skylake.

Sykotik:
Not sure what âtestsâ you are referring to but the infor was pulled from âsystem infoâ
I am not sure exactly but I am looking into overclocking both the underpowered Nvidia Graphics chipset and i7-740QM both as we speak
[EDIT:] So I am not seeing a way to overclock My Core i7 Q740, but I was able to bump the Nvidia Toshiba Qosmio X505-887 Laptop, and I really donât want to cook it.
On and upside to having a blown RAM board when I got it, it had the Hdd upgraded by 200GB
Out of curiosity would I want to take my Bios out of Legacy mode for a CPU overclock or No?
Honestly I would not overclock a laptop as thatâs just gonna cause problems in the future. It may work at first but youâre gonna have lots of heat problems. Putting new thermal paste on the processor wonât do much considering you canât put an aftermarket cooler on it. Best bet is to build a desktop.

Did you go from 970 > 980ti and was it worth it? Iâm thinking about getting a 980ti and selling my 970 but itâs like a grand to buy a 980ti hereâŚ
