I've seen that thread before but I always thought that you had the actual image stored on a computer somewhere. Guess I was mistaken.

fangui / ATI tool
First see this thread for boot utility to disable driver signing in vista x64
http://www.notebookforums.com/thread216699.html Using this I was able to run ATItool and fangui. I have lowered my overclocks to 600/900 which is just 100 on each over standard clocks. This is not because or artifacting, it can run higher, but because of temperature. The GPU and CPU run hot (for anyone thinking or purchasing, then x9000 is same clocks but 45mm rather than 65mm so should be cooler) and with 600/900 I see the temp level off in the 90s with fangui toggling fans max Just in case fangui does not max the rpm, I'll recheck it with bios fan control this weekend. I noted an 8 deg C temp offset (fangui too low) between hardware monitor and fangui, so set adjustment I like fangui for setting fans slow as the temp profile stays flat and the laptop stays quiet, under normal work Damn the CPU side fan is LOUD on max. Very quick laptop though, just wish it was possible to hardware pinmod the x7900 to run 3.0 from 2.8 I don't have the smarts for that ![]()

I've also read that the M6300 with 3600 CAN give something resembling battery life with power saving on......have you tried it out?

Has anyone thought of flashing the BIOS?
If the FX3600M is the same as the 8800 GTS, than maybe the BIOS will match as well. The same was with the FX3500M and 7950 GTX. Anyone willing to give it a go? |

so far most people are not sure, if the fx3600 is coming from the gts or gtx card.
my scores are closer to the gtx and gpu-z is not always right. and i'm not sure if flashing the card would really bring that much improvement.

i can't overclock much higher than 620/900, atitool starts showing artifacts from this point.
600/900 is a good artifact free sppot for me. however, my temps @ 620/900 didn't get higher than ~76°. 3dmark06 @ 620/900 was 9774. so in my case temps are really fine, only problem is artifacting from a certain clock. could rise the benchmark score more with cpu oc. but i doubt it's worth the trouble.
