I have the final verdict on my overclocking tests. The maximum speeds I could attain were Core: 575mhz (+75) Mem: 1000mhz (+200) Any higher core would crash the system, and not much higher memory causes artifacts. My scores came out...

Lappy came with no OS, so it was a fresh install. And, though I haven't done a ton of tweaking to the OS, it is running SP3 and has a very minimal amount of processes running. I will probably do some tweaks soon enough. Working on...

Well now, just hacked the Mobileforce 169.04 drivers onto my system, and I got a whopping 23 more 3DMarks. http://service.futuremark.com/orb/re...0&UID=13121787 Came to 8861. Small increase, but the drivers are also slightly...

Some more infos, if anybody is still reading this thread... UT3 Demo runs flawlessly at max settings, I am proud to say. =) Can't wait to buy the full game. Temps are as follows: System was idle for about 10-15 mins when I took these...

That was my train of though exactly when I picked out that screen. That and well, it would drive me nuts, all the smudges that glossy screens get. Anywho, no dead pixel guarantee. Chose to be adventurous and got lucky I 'spose, though...

While Oblivion is installing (over wireless network... gg), I thought I'd take a minute to say that the built in speakers are very disappointing. Tinny, lacking nearly any bass, and lacking a ton in volume. They work okay, but they are...

8838 3DMark06. Not bad, right on par with the benchmarks posted not long ago. I imagine that it is capable of a good amount more, considering these aren't optimized drivers, and my antivirus program updated in the background while the...

XP, 32bit. (edit - SP3 RC1) Not a big fan of Vista so far, and as much as I would like to install 64bit XP, I've heard more bad things about that. (edit again - Don't know what I did, but apparently I can install the PC cam drivers...
