The s607 has a massive copper heat sink that can be seen through the vents on the back, as a result the fan is rarely running full speed for me. Only when I render solidworks mechnical drawings does it speed up the fan. You can hear...

Aaah... That's excellent. You are definitely getting faster memory performance. Thank you for posting your results. Time to check RAM prices again. Regards

The other jack is for an external remote control sensor. It comes with a tiny sensor on the end of a long cable. I can't imagine a realistic situation were you would actually need it, but it's included anyways. Unfortunately, the only...

Hiya, I have the P25-S607 and have played around a bit with the TV tuner. It appears to be a standard NTSC receiver and works fine with any signal source you might have. Rabbit-ears will work just as well as they work with any other...

I suggest you save some money and buy the S607, then take the money you save and upgrade the boot drive to the Hitachi 7K60 7200rpm. I did the same thing and have a machine that is about 30% faster than the S609 and cost less.

I recently upgraded from a similar sony notebook to a P25-S607 and am very happy with the decision. The P25 is blazingly fast. The intel chipset with 800MHz FSB, dual-channel ram, 2.8G HT P4, nvidia 5200, etc provides great...

I bought a M30 for my wife two weeks ago, right after the M35 became available. The M30 is 1.4GHz and the M35 is 1.6GHz, but those are the only differences I am aware of, other than the M35 coming with more memory. So far, there have...

Are you sure you have 133MHz ram? All of the S607s come stock with 266MHz. Take a look at your memory with cpuz. It should say 133MHz is the base fequency with a DRAM multiplier of 2. Something like "FSB/DRAM = 3:2." You...

I own a P25-S607 with the nvidia 5200 and was originally confused about the 3D performance. I overclocked the gpu with rivatuner and still had a disappointing 3DMark2003f score of 1231. However, the actual performance in game play was...

The quality of the machine is excellent and it is easy to upgrade as well. To change the main drive, you just pop off a panel on the bottom of the unit. It has a small disk bracket that you take off of the old drive and put on the new...
