Currently I'm using Lenovo Ideapad Z575 laptop. My laptop specs are AMD A8-3500M APU (1.5-2.4 GHz) with integrated Radeon HD 6620G, 8 GB RAM. Discrete graphics card stopped working about 5 months ago and it's probably dead. Also wanted to add that the only graphics driver I can use is dated...

I have an engineering class where we have to use CAD products and Maya. I want to run the dolphin emulator for.... ya know... games. I have to be able to code java and run maya at max. Could a i5 4200u (surface pro 2). I like to play SOME games that are intensive but I highly doubt I would be...

Hi guys, I am looking for advice on laptop buying (obviously). Up until now, I have always made do with low-budget office consumer laptops, but they no longer fit my needs and left me hanging high and dry after 3 years at the very latest. What I am looking for is a sturdy machine that offers a...

Oddly enough, I posted this on a Graphic Design forum and got very (almost no) response. I'm looking to learn a 3D program, but not for games/animation/film but rather just for product images. Mocking up packaging, making it look like a photo and using files made in illustrator/photoshop as the...

When I start blender on my windows 7 system it gives me an eeror bod that says "ordinal 250 not found in swscale-2.dll. If I reinstall it, it works again, but the next time i run it, it just happens again, so i have to reinstall it again. I dont want to install it again everytime. It is a...
