Only synthetic benchmarking software like 3DMark Firestrike, Unigine Valley/Unigine Heaven will keep your GPU locked at 100% utilization, but keep an eye on your temps when you do so.

Yes o, I went with AMD, now you see why I have a keen interest in your laptop lol

From the games you mentioned, Witcher 3, AssCreed:Syndicate, Crysis 3, Ryse are demanding games..I've got them too
good.. I was advised that I will regret buying and due to temperature.. The opposite is the case.. Maybe it is because it came with two fan but no heat so far compare to when I was using gtx660m, 760m and 460 Nvidia laptops... Ryse is graphics demanding but I so much love the game. The fatalities and brutalities

That's solid...sounds like its well built...heat dissipation is always an issue but looks like they've nailed it on the M4800.
Do you play online?

OpenCL isn't that bad on AMD cards though..Does the 3D animation software you use support both OpenCL and CUDA?

Most of the software support CUDA , i dont know why they hate amd that much, infact i havent seen any advance software that support AMD opencl

There's support for OpenCL, however some require GPUs from AMDs FirePro series to unlock certain features within the software. I know Maya, Solidworks(which i use) support OpenCL. I've usedSony Vegas Pro/AdobePremiere CC and that supports OpenCL. What software do you use?

belive me when i tell you that i use all the software you mention above and practically they dont support the openCL but literally they do
because when using AMD your ram suffers most compare to when using Nvidia CUDA ( your GPU suffer it which is reasonable and understandable)
i notice this whenever i am redering a 3d project in cinema4d and after effect
RAM Usage 90% ( out of 16GB )
CPU Usage 10-15 % ( it fluctuate but not more than 15% )
GPU Usage ( 0% )

compare to when i was using NVIDIA Series ( core i5 )
RAM USAGE 79% ( out of 8gb ram )
CPU Usage ( 40 - 70% )
GPU ( 50% upward )

and alot of people complain about that online too

Or could it be because you are using the mobile version. Here's my AdobeCC

i dont use preimera pro

here is the software i am using currently

after effect cc 2015
maya
and cinema4d

non support OPENCL

though it will list your GPU
BUT still you will be unable to tick the GPU , It only uses CPU

oh by the way i went through the previous post now and i see that you game with amd too, first time i am seeing amd gamer here

nice setup. liked the way you added "lol" to pes 16....with its "cutting edge graphics" loool.

also i used to game on amd....i must say the colors on my amd was a bit better than my gtx 780. I used a gtx 280 before moving to a 7770 hd den a 7850 hd now a gtx 780.my verdict would be most games give me problems on amd and i have to use patches and other ways but the nvidia works most often out of the box.. .crimson drivers however, saw a serious improvement to the 7850....saw my framerates increase from 30 to mid 50s in battlefield 4 on 900p (framerates are important to me)

enjoy your gaming bro....

also who does 2d animations here?

What type of 2 Don animation are you talking about text or character animation? I do animation

And about amd only rely on Microsoft for updates and thats not the case on Nvidia
And I don't know why you have to go extra mile for amd... With Nvidia it is plug and play.. But it worth the stress my brother

And frame rate is important to all gamers

character animation....need a few questions answered....do i need to learn to draw before i begin...if so what books do u recommend?

oh no do not rely on ms for updates....you would be under utilising ur gpu trust me....always use amd sites....if its not gud enuff jux roll back to the last gud one u used.

also not all gamers fancy framerates to graphix....gaming fora have tot me that.

( i do text animation though both in 2d and 3d ) but just once in a while whenever i want to do 2d animation, i hire graphics designer to help me with the designs and drawing ( adobe illustrator design because your drawings must be in vector format if you want to animate it ) ..

trust me you wouldnt want to be the one to be drawing and at the same time be the one to be animating ..it will work for small project but it will never work out for big project REASon is because your animating skill is going to suffer for it

but to just know the basic drawing please illustrator is your best bet ( at least that is what i use )

oh no do not rely on ms for updates....you would be under utilising ur gpu trust me....always use amd sites....if its not gud enuff jux roll back to the last gud one u used.
i dont know i can use AMD sites for update .. seems i still dont know things about amd

Minimum console runs at 30FPS, some run at 60fps like Doom.
Much better overall than my laptop sad

what im saying is that they would rather eye candy than 60fps...nd most 60fps are actually mid 40s at best. they wud rather sacrifice frames for graphix...cos graphics sell games better than frames.

yes you should use the official amd website for updates....much much better.

fora is plural for forum.

AFAIK, any game with a target 60fps that runs mid 40's has a game engine issue ie the developers haven't optimised the game. For instance Quantum Break had that issue on the PS4&XBox one. The developers then set the option to cap it at 30fps or leave it variable, a settings available in the options menu.
As for graphics selling better than frames, you'll have to hear what gamers on CS:Go think about that. Competitive players lower their screen resolutions to hit higher frame rates as that reduces input lag. It think it's a case of everyone has a sweet spot, I like to get both cheesy

most games on xbone/ps4 dont run at 60fps...and even at 30fps its not stable....no manner of engine optimisation would allow witcher 3 or battlefield in all its glory on the consoles run at a stable 60fps on these new consoles. the hardware is weak. so the we ask the question....why would the devs not reduce the graphic fidelity to achieve a stable 60fps.. simple cos graphics is a better seller than frame rates. imagine this on a game box or download page "mindblowing 60fps liquid smooth gameplay" instead of "mindblowing graphics with true to life fidelity" which one you think would sell?

competitive gamers are a niche crowd compared to casuals.people jux love graphics hence quad sli gpu setups nd xfires for jux 2k and 4k of the same game they could be enjoying on 1080p for far less money.

i'd love to have both on affordable hardware too
