I see it's showing 5.02GB of VRAM but I thought it was pretty typical for it to usually show up around 5.7GB-5.8GB VRAM for a 6GB card. Maybe have a look in the Nvidia control panel and check out the specs and make sure it shows the full 6GB. I'd imagine the benchmark is just misreading the actual proper total.

I guess, it says dedicated video memory 6144 MB GDDR5, total available 14257 MB (shared system memory 8113 MB)

Who knows, the 32 GB flash card is actually 28.8 GB
The 256 GB SSD is actually 237 GB
The 1TB HDD is actually 931 GB

Cutting corners everywhere!

So far so good, I played FH4 for almost 2 hours, silky smooth, no hickups. The CPU temp did go up to 95c max recorded, GPU max 72c recorded with the fans at 5500 rpm. I wonder how hot my old laptop got as the air coming out and case don't feel that hot at all. The old one was too hot to keep your hand on it and could burn your fingers with the exhaust. It's not doing anything atm and feels warmer... No wonder the sound started cutting out, it must have been boiling hot in there.

Task manager says the cpu is at 3.9 ghz, yet it states it's a 2.2 ghz cpu. Perhaps that's with turbo on. You can overclock the gpu, but don't see it for the cpu.

It's a very nice machine, everything feels fast and responsive, plus the screen stands out with the color and contrast. Of course only time will tell. Any fresh windows install feels fast initially. Internet browsing with an SSD drive is much better though. All those tempory internet files take time. VGChartz is not a pita on this one :)
