Plus I've sent apologize to all those effected (Alexandria, Gez, etc). Doesn't make what I said/did right or anything.
Yeah, I know it was a bad move on my part.

I eagerly awaited shadowplay as most Nvidia users and finally today after such long time I got update with shadowplay mentioned in changelog. Excitedly I downloaded and installed it, and lo and behold, shadowplay nowhere to be found.

So I quickly checked discussion forums and found out that mobile editions of GPUs are not supported?!

*inb4 The Commander jumps in with his attempt at troll attack*Yes, I have laptop for gaming; yes, I like it and dont find it lame at all and I have reasons to use it instead of desktop pc.
I know, maybe I was bit naive in my enthusiasm, as I read list of supported series of GPUs before and I found mine in it (GeForce GT 650M SLI built in Lenovo Ideapad Y500), but I didnt realised then, that missing suffix M was so important thing to notice.
So... I have question to lucky ones: Is it any good? Am I missing much?

Honestly I bought a Radeon two years ago and I haven't looked back. I got a Sapphire 6950 Flex Edition. I unlocked the pipelines to a 6970 and overclocked it to the same specs.
Best God damn video card I've never owned. It's absolutely perfect. I've had no major driver problems except for Polymer and the old version of the FreeSpace 2 SCP. Both are coded poorly.
This card runs cold, doesn't use much power, and it's still very fast. It's slightly faster than a 570, and it's got way more RAM.
Nvidia has lost their luster, IMO. The 500 series were great, but these newer cards are crap. Narrow memory buses. Terrible compute performance. Not enough RAM. High prices. Their newer shit is built for pure profit margin. They pissed off the console manufacturers, and now the 7000 series and up Radeon will have Mantle, which is going to fuck DirectX in the ass performance wise.
Also the last three Nvidia systems I've built/serviced in the past two months have had janky ass drivers. Download the latest driver from their website, GeForce Experience tells me it's already outdated. What the fuck?
