zzz Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 I am curious as to whether this mobile card will find support? I would like to opt for a high specification laptop if the issues of Nvidias Optimus can be bypassed by going for AMD. I do not need the card for gaming, more gpu related tasks to which this card is suitable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VirusX Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 isn't that the card that is used in the new iMacs? (or two of them for the 5K iMac)? If yes, the card should be natively supported, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was checking out an iMac at BB the other day deciding if i liked Magic Trackpad, and I could see inn "About this mac" that it did indeed have m290x. what notebook are you considering? I thought this looked pretty nice, but I was wondering if you had found something better https://www.cyberpowerpc.com/system/Fangbook_III_HX7-400_Gaming_Laptop/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
