Lenovo G505s A10-5750M 8GB Ram - graphics card?

I was looking at buying this laptop - http://www.johnlewis.com/lenovo-g505s-laptop-amd-a10-8gb-ram-1tb-8gb-ssd-15-6-black/p611680 - and was just wondering what graphics card it has? I emailed JL and asked and they told me the Radeon HD 8570M, but when i've been looking online etc. people have said it came with the 8560G.
Does anyone know for certain which card this comes with?
Thanks!

Brand New Lenovo Y5070 (I7 4270HQ/8GB RAM/Geforce 960M 4GB) - All Freeze, Sound Continue!

Hello Support, Last evening I bought this high-end model of Y5070 in Chiang Mai as I spend a month here now:(I7 4270HQ/8GB RAM/Geforce 960M 4GB) I am Microsoft Windows 10 Insider Edition User and while it works fine for most I've this strange issue. I've installed today fresh Windows 10 build 10130 (latest build), some drivers were missing so I used Lenovo drivers CD to install the win 8.1 drivers (Microsoft suggest to use Win 8.1 drivers on Win 10). All works good besides, it has random freeze, everything freeze, but youtube/music keep singing and it will stay like this until i click POWER button on the laptop then after a minute it goes sleep and when it wakes up all fine again. I did installed 100% fresh win 10 setup. If this issue is due to Win 10 I can go and install win 7 or 8.1. But it sounds not very normal to me since i dont see other win 10 users having this issue. Please assist me asap as long as I am here in Thailand/Chiang Mai and still can go to store for replacement if needed. Thank you so muchRoman

when the screen freezes and the audio is still playing i would look at the gfx card drivers

use driver sweeper to remove the old drivers then start with the top one and test each one and see if any improve or fix it

Lenovo G770 CPU & Grafikkarten tausch - CPU & Graphics card replacement

Deutsch:
Hallo, nach dem ich an meinem Lenovo G770 die Festplatte und den Arbeitsspeicher aufgerüstet hab, interessiert es mich ob es möglich wäre den CPU (akutell i5) aufzurüsten?! 1. Falls es möglich wäre nur einen schnelleren i5 oder sogar einen i7? Desweiteren kann man die VGA Karte austauschen? Was für eine wäre da brauchbar als Gamer? Habe ein Buget von ca. 400 Euro für beides, wenn es hoch kommt auch 500. Wäre lieb wenn ihr ein paar tipps hättet welche sachen da gut Leistung rausholen würden. (Grafikkarte ist da weitaus wichtiger als der CPU)

Hello, after I upgraded my Lenovo G770 to the hard disk and memory, it interests me if it would be possible to upgrade the CPU (i5-date)? 1 If it were only possible a faster i5 or even an i7? Furthermore, you can replace the VGA card? What a would be as useful as a gamer? Have a buget of about 400 euros for both, when it comes up too 500 Would love if you had a few tips that things would get out there good performance. (Graphics card is there far more important than the CPU)

Satellite M45-S169 - Overheats and upgrading RAM/graphic card

Hello,
I need a few answers and reassurance to the questions I have about my laptop. Here are the following questions:
The laptop overheats fairly fast which by this I mean in about 10min or so, the laptop is burning up. Is it the model or is there something wrong with it? I can't keep the laptop on without keeping it plugged into the wall at all times. Does this have anything to do with my battery as in I need a new one?
Am I able to install new RAM* (2GB Max) and if so, does anyone know how much slots there are for this model? (Haven't really opened it up to check because I'm bad at putting things back together after taking them apart)
Am I able to install a new graphics card for the laptop or am I stuck with the ATI RADEON XPRESS 200M Series? (and if it's not too much to ask, is the graphics card I have good, bad, or so-so)
Sorry if there are too much questions but it would be really nice if I get answers to all of them.

Hi Honu_2,
1.) You should clean your notebook using compressed air spray. This could blow out the dust from the cooling ventilators and read this article please:
http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/ann.jspa?annID=40
2.) Yes, it seems that you need a new battery if your notebook only works with connected AC/DC adaptor.
3.) You should check your user manual. As far as I know this model supports up to 2GB RAM. That means you can install 1GB in both slots.
4.) Upgrading the graphic card is not possible since its soldered/fixed on the mainboard and your notebook is only designed for preinstalled graphic card.
By the way: All these questions are already answered here. Check the forum for similar threads, you will find a lot of interesting stuff! ;)

RAM & graphics card advice

Was hoping to get some advice re: RAM & a graphics card upgrade for my macpro.
I have been using Premiere pro CS 5.5 & FCP 7.0.3 on my macpro for a little while with no issues
(along with the other apps in the suites: AE, PS, compressor, DVDSP, etc).
For the CUDA acceleration the Adobe site recommends that I ugrade to one of these cards:
GeForce GTX 285 for Mac
Quadro FX 4800 for Mac
Quadro 4000 for Mac
I also just received a copy of Avid Media Composer 5.5 & have been waiting to install it based on Avid approving stability for OS 10.6.8 + not sure how the matrox card is working for them yet either.
Would anyone recommend one of these above cards specifically for use with all 3 applications?
Was also looking at putting in 24 GB of RAM as well. Assume I can always use more, but how much?
Is there anybody running a similar setup as this on OS 10.6.8?
I know there are a number of editors on here that may use all 3 apps (FCP, PP, & Avid), but I am not sure if they run on the same computer without issues, or what the setup may be.
From what I have read online it looks like there are lots of issues with the 4000, but it is hard to tell if that is reliable info as some of the posters have found out they had bad RAM, or it was some other problem they introduced.
Mostly i see that they recommend the GTX 285 card if I can find one, but I am unsure which way to go. Any suggestions?
MacPro Specs are:
Mac OS 10.6.8
MacPro4,1
Processor - 2 X 2.26 GHz Quad core Intel Xeon (8 cores)
memory - 6 GB 1066 MHz DDR3
graphics card - NVIDIA GeForce GT 120 (512MB VRAM)
also have a matrox mini card installed
under system profiler - memory it says:
Type is DDR3 ECC, speed 1066 MHz
THANKS!

Last I talked to Matrox, the MC5 driver install for the MXO2 mini is different than the install for CS5. I don't know if they changed that with the new Matrox tools but you will want to contact them and see. If not then you will only be able to setup the Matrox for 1 or the other since I doubt you can install both and they work without issue
The Quadro 4000 is best for Adobe versus the other 2. The differences between the cards really tont effect MC5 but they recommend a Quadro because that's what they test with.

Video test failed in graphic card laptop g50-70

when i run hardware scan in lenovo solution center, i got waring graphic card video test and got result
Result code: WVC003000-DK7X2I
Video Card.
so i want to know why test show warning in my graphic card

hi bhavik455,
Welcome to the Forums.
Getting an error on the Lenovo Solutions Center (LSC) Hardware Scan might mean that the GPU is failing. This comes with a sign like lots of BSOD that's pointing to the graphics card, artifacts on the screen while playing games / videos, or the machine suddenly won't show a display.
If you're not experiencing any of the above symptoms then it's likely that the graphics card on the unit is functioning properly and the LSC is just showing some alse positive errors.
To verify, try running a stress test on the GPU to check its stability by running OCCT or similar utility.

MacBook Pro 17" (Late 2011) Graphics Card

Hello Community,
I've researched this community, and found some relevant posts to the following question. However, the answers I found weren't completely satisfying. So, I'm posting my own on the subject to help me and others.
I have the following:
• MacBook Pro 17" (Late 2011, MacBookPro8,3) 2.5 ghz Quad Core i7/512 SSD/8 GB RAM
• Graphics Card: AMD Radeon HD 6770M with 1 GB VRAM and Intel HD 3000 Graphics
I know desktop models can be upgraded, but I can not afford the one I need at the moment. I am aware that many Apple laptop graphics cards can not be upgraded. Can this particular AMD Radeon graphics card be replaced and upgraded?
If it can be replaced and upgraded, any suggestions on the best graphics card available? AMD has some nice upgrades.
The card is nice, fast, and I'm not unhappy with it, but I run graphics and multimedia applications, and could benefit from the newer cards available.
I appreciate your input community.
Thanks,
Greg

About the only time you can upgrade a video card in a notebook is if that model notebook came with a better video card then what you ordered. At a later date if that better video card become available on the used market you could by one and replace the original as it was made to fit in the same model.
But it is almost impossible to buy one from the original manufacturer. Especial during the current production run of that model.
In your case the model you bought has the best video card available in the new line of MBPs. So there is no better card that would fit in your system. Whether the new models that will be coming out later this year will use a better video card and whether it would physical fit in your model is unknow.
But all of what I wrote above doesn't really matter as with all Macbook Pros the video card and CPU is Soldered to the logic board and can not be replaced. If either fails the complete logic board needs to be replaced.
The only things that can be easily replaced by the user in a Apple Macbook Pro is the RAM, hard drive and DVD drive.
All other parts Apple does not sell to the general public.
So your only option is if the newer models have a better video card is to sell your present system and buy the new model.

Unable to Launch Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 using High-Performance on AMD Radeon Graphic Card

I have been unable to launch Adobe Premiere Pro since installing it with the error message "Adobe Premiere Pro could not find any capable video play modules. Please update your video display drivers and start again"
Here are my specs:
Lenovo Ideapad U400
Windows 7 (64bit)
Intel i5 2.5 ghz processor
AMD Radeon 6470M graphics card
The only occasion during which I have successfully launched Premiere Pro was after reverting to the default graphics card on my computer and uninstalling AMD Radeon, otherwise, I have tried to change Premiere Pro to run on High-Performance on Catalyst Control Center to no avail, I do not wish to revert to the Standard Graphics Card as it slows down my computers performance one hell of a lot, neither do I wish to have to constantly uninstall and reinstall my AMD Radeon Graphics Card when I use Premiere Pro. Thank you for your time.

Update:
- with Intel (R) HD Graphics Card disabled, Catalyst Control Center reports that no AMD Graphic card is installed
- using Device Manager under Control Panel, AMD Radeon 6470M was verified to be up-to-date
- Premiere Pro works so long as I disable the Intel card before launch, however, I re-enable it upon startup to get rid of the 800x600 resolution
- AMD Mobility Radeon Driver Verification Tool is unable to verify and update my driver, refers me to lenovo to update it.
- My graphics card is up-to-date as verified by lenovo
- Intel (R) HD Graphics Card now up-to-date
- Display currently mainly using Intel (R) HD Graphics Card (Possibly why it caps resolution at 1024x768 when disabled) I'm not sure how to switch the main Graphics Card used, Catalyst Control Center doesn't seem to have the option.
- when disabled, computer reverts to vgasave instead of Radeon
- Disabling Radeon does nothing to existing display
- After updating my Intel card, Catalyst Control Center reported CCC was not supported by the current display adapter
- CCC worked after rolling back Intel card
From what I infer, I believe the problem to root from my intel card being the main card used, if there is anyway to switch my radeon card to the default instead of the Intel card, do tell me, I believe this may solve the problem, I apologise for troubling you guys, and I'm starting to feel that I shouldn't be troubling Adobe with my problem with AMD, this discussion is probably really out of place but I hope it will help out others with a similar problem.

OpenGL, what to do - ore new graphic card?

Konfiguration Dell
Win XPpro SP3,
CPU Pentium 3 3 Hz,
3GB RAM,
Graphic card: ATI FireGL V3100 128Mb with driver 8.543.0.0 ( 08october 2008)
Latest directX
The PS CS4 do not recognise the graphic card and GPU settings are grayed out in Preferences> performance.
As fare as I can read, information's about the graphic card, indicate that it should meet the openGL standards. http://ati.amd.com/products/workstation/techspecs.html
Any advice ?

I think you really need OpenGL 2.1 & DirectX 10 support, although PS indicates differently. I do not think your card has full support for 'Shader Model 3' which is required for CS4. Check the subsequent models in your link.

Satellite P100 - graphic card nVidia Geforce Go 7600 crashed

Hello!
My graphic board has crashed and, after removing dozens of screws, i've verified it's not integrated in the motherboard. I could disassembled it after removing the last three screws.
- My laptop is a Toshiba P100-342 (PSPA3E-0QE038SP)
Here, you can see the model number: http://imageshack.com/a/img856/1917/6s6f.jpg
- The graphics card is a nVidia Geforce Go 7600.
Here you can see it on the motherboard: http://imageshack.com/a/img834/5825/ktl8.jpg
And here, alone on the table: http://imageshack.com/a/img839/3525/6of6.jpg
This is the nVidia chip: http://imageshack.com/a/img836/4343/q7lg.jpg
Searching in the internet, i've found just 1 graphic card similar to mine. But i'm not sure if it'll run, because i've read the devices must be exactly the same as the original:
http://www.ebay.es/itm/NEW-Toshiba-A000013050-Nvidia-G73M-128MB-GeForce-Go-7600-Video-Graphics-Board-/360821279000?pt=PCC_Video_TV_Cards&hash=item54029f c918&_uhb=1
I asked the eBay seller about the compatibility and his answer was: "Please contact Toshiba for complete product compatibility." But Toshiba doesn't provide any support after the warranty expires (almost in Spain).
Anyone has replaced this graphic card? Do you think i should buy this ebay's graphic card? Are there any other solutions? (for example: replacing the whole motherboard...)
Thank's very much in advance.

I never had to replace an graphic card in a notebook but I would not purchase any part if Im not 100% sure if it would be fully compatible with my notebook.
Fact is that SATELLITE P100-342 was equipped with an NVIDIA GeForce Go 7600 (code name G73M) PCI Express x16 (GDDR2 256GB dedicated RAM) graphic card.
The part on ebay supports only 128MB and therefore I think both parts are not the same.
This could be the reason not to purchase this part.

Graphic card recommendation - S20 is dying

Hello All,
I have S20 which I recently-3-4 months ago- bought it. It's SATA type with the following specs:
Intel Xeon W3520 Processor (2.66GHz 1066MHz 8MB L2) - 130W
4GB ECC DDR3 PC3-10600 SDRAM (2GBx2 uDIMMS)
NVIDIA Quadro FX 580 32-core (512MB,DVI + DP)
SATA 250GB HDD
When I run sketch-up application with 20MB and put one model on top of another model
or
When I open-up a CAD file with a size of 40-50MB
The machine is dying. Sometimes It's giving response after 1 minute, 2 mins when I am using sketch-up
Today, I upgraded winXP from 32bit to 64 bit, but the result is still same.
I would like to know your opinoins how can I increase the performance of this workstation?
The max graphic card I can install is limited to 1.5GB which is available on lenovo.com or there are some graphic cards available on the market at 2x1024 MB.
Will it help me if I upgrade to 1GB or Can I upgrade to 2GB? Motherboard will support?
Upgrading to SATA SSD would be another solution?
Please provide some feedback if you have any experience about increasing the performance of this workstation may be you have done it before?
Thanks,
Hasan

I think the problem is not because of the computer memory. When I run Autocad, the memory goes up to 1.3 from 0.3GB. And then continue to open a sketchup then It goes up to 1.7GB although the computer has room for 4GB.
Additionally, when I watch the CPU usage, one of 8 core goes up to 100% for some time and then goes down when the program continues to respond.
I think still the problem might be because of low graphic card memory. Because of that, It's using the main processor longer time and I am waiting to see responses from the program
It seems, there are better/higher memory graphic cards than FX3800/4800 on the market. Would it be better if I go one of them? 2x1024=2GB Memory cards?
This resource has also quite good data on various graphic cards: http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/charts/gaming-graphics-cards-charts-2009-high-quality-update-3/3DMark0...
Would you go with Nvidia or ATI?
Thanks

Compatable Graphics Card? and Installation?

I have no idea what kind of graphics card that my machine will accept.
The Number on the front sais: 3000 N100
and the Machine type/model is: 0768-BXG
oh and currently its intigrated graphics: Intel(R) Graphics Media Accelerator
and are there any guides that show you how to install a new one?

It's unfortunately a fact that very very few notebooks have a graphics chip which isn't soldered onto the mainboard. AFAIK the only Lenovo notebook which has a "slotted" graphics card is the ThinkPad W700.

Will Upgrading My Graphics Card Speed up Export Time?

Hello:
I am new to FCPX and I shot my first movie yeasterday and loved editing in FCPX. Here s my computer specs before I ask my question
Mac Pro 2009 Quad Core 2.93 GHZ
24GB Ram
Graphic Card - NVIIDA GT120 512mb
I use this computer for my recoridng studio and it works perfectly but now when working with video there are two things I noticed while working with my first project. I shot a 1920 X 1080 60P on my HD camcorder and the moive was 32 minutes. Here are the issues
1. Im FCPX the play head in the time line sometimes seems a little choppy and the background render is pretty slow at times as well.
2. When I went to export, the movie was going to me almost 10GB, so I purchased Compressor and in FCP went under FILE, SEND TO COMPRESSOR. I choose a 720P setting and started to process the batch. It took almost 8 hours to compress that footage which brought the file down to 1.5GB which was really great and the quality looks stunning, so I am happy aobut that.
In doing some reseach, I found that upgrading my stock graphics card may be the solution to some of the speed issues in FCPX. I nver gave that a tohught as I am new to the video editing world. I was looking at a
Sapphire HD 7950 3GB MAC Eddition
This seems like to would be a mjor upgrade to my graphic card. So my question is, by upgrading my graphic card woudl this help my issues I described aobuve? I got to image that it could not hurt for sure.
Thnaks for your time in advance.

I hope that other people more knowledgeable can comment on the matter of the graphics card.
I think that 8 hours is way too long for your hardware.
Did you turn App Nap off? If not, do it NOW for FCP X and Compressor.
Select the apps in the Finder, and hit Command I. In the Get Info window, check the box that says "Prevent App Nap".
Also, I think that you could probably do the same export in less time in FCP X itself.
FCP X has several export options. Compressor can be useful for a number of situations, especially for complex workflows, and if several macs can share the workload. I don't think Compressor makes any use of the GPU, so you would probably see no gain from the faster GPU in that export.
In most cases, a single export like yours can be done faster and easier from FCP X itself. FCP X DOES use the GPU.
As a test, I suggest that (after turning off App Nap, as described above) you try the same export from within FCP X.
File->Share->Master File
and in the Settings choose "Computer", H264 Better Quality and 1280x720.
I bet it will take substantially LESS than 8 hours (maybe close to, or a little above real time at most).

Lenovo G505s Graphic card advice

I am considering buying the G505s. The one with an AMD A10-5750M processor and 8Gb RAM. This one: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Lenovo-G505s-15-6-inch-Laptop-Black/dp/B00LLE6IAU/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=141...
I don't really want a gaming laptop but I want one to use as a general laptop but for casual gaming. I don't expect to be running new games on high graphics setting, but it would be nice if I would be able to play some newish games like Battlefield 4, Simcity, the Sims 4 and GTA IV/GTA V. I have looked online and found that this model is normally quite capable of running some of these games. However, I have a concern about the graphics card: Radeon R5 M230. For some of these games, such as Battlefield 4, youtube videos only seem to show it being played on the same model G505s but with a AMD Radeon HD 8750M graphic card. I've even seen it played on some youtube videos on the same model but the AMD A8 version, which has AMD Dual Graphics : AMD Radeon 8550g + 8570m.
I thought that the version I am considering buying had a better processor and grahics card and is more expensive, so am I correct that I won't be able to play Battlefield 4 and some other games?

When I said that, it was more of an expression.
My G770 can probably run new games but it's not enjoyable, Metro Last Light was running at about ~20 FPS on Minimum settings. Call of Duty Ghosts was ~30 FPS, but it used to drop frames on every few minutes. With the "latest" driver from 2013 I probably wouldn't be able to start the game if I hadn't used 3rd party AMD drivers which served me okay. But I also ran all those games at the native resolution, which in my case is 1600x900. Note that I run a Samsung 840 EVO SSD and I have 8GB RAM.
My point is that a mid range laptop is not meant for gaming, while it can run games there is no guarantee that it will be able to do that in say 2 years. And when I say run, I mean you actually playing. Any PC can run a game, but there's a difference between being able to run it and being able to play it.
I don't know if you're getting the laptop because of the price or you need portability. If it's not the latter, I seriously suggest you to look into a desktop PC. For 650 USD you can build a pretty decent rig, with a monitor and all peripherals. In my honest opinion, I should have done that.
All of this is strictly for AAA games, that are graphics intensive. Simulations, MMOs, RPGs, Indie, Valve games, are all very playable on my computer, even Sims 4, I can run that at medium without issues.
I hope I cleared any confusion. If you have any other questions feel free to ask or PM me.
