Ok my S380 is running DDR2 pc3200 ram 2x512. Overclocking the gfx card core 370 mhz memory 635 mhz. I got 902 on 3d Mark 2005 and 23887 Aquamark. Using the 80.40 drivers my scores have improved: 3dmark 05: 1122 and Aquamark 24,332

I do not see how a memory change to 2gb of pc4200 DDR2 will increase these speeds any further. The good news is a friend is getting 2 sticks of ddr2 sodimm pc4200 2x1gb that by friday I can rerun these tests and see if there is significant improvement.

Did you get the floppy drive to work yet? If my friend in Japan orders an S94(apparently they are quite a hot item right now in Japan) we could have a BIOS on our hands pretty soon.

I had given up, no real support on the idea, and i was having no luck with the floppy(although it was cheap, I suspect it work with another brand). But in all honesty, if I am feeling good, (which I am)I just may install a small ~500MB MS-DOS partition onto my laptop and just set that up for stuff like this. I am pretty damn sure it will work if we get the sony 6400 bios. Oh and ask your friend in japan to dump the laptops bios image, I have a hunch, it maybe nothing, but i have a hunch.

I should note that, although nobody knows for sure, it seems the consensus on the Japanese hardware forums is that it is a 64/192. That would be my only reservation. If not, and the Sony engineers have blessed us with a 32/224 card then i believe the chances of success is very high. I am hoping for news by this weekend. Just curious, were you not able to boot from the floppy? I see an option in the bios?

i don't really care about the whole amount of ram, I am 100 percent sure it does not matter. And yes i had no luck with the floppy drive, but it was a cheap old made god know where on, i think it was lacking the right config to boot floppy, because noticed, it in my bios as well.

S460B - 6200TC OC'd to 333/665

I have a S460B with the 6200TC OC'd to 333/665.

Everything is stock, except for the 2GB of PC4200 DDR2 RAM (CL4). It runs as dual channeled (which was around 800'ish MHZ as I recall from the tests).

I did 2 tests, once using the 78.03 drivers (new beta drivers from Nvidia), and then again using the non-modified 80.40 drivers.

9912 3D Mark 2001SE - Defaults/333 & 665 OC'd 6200TC 78.03
996 3D Mark 2005 - Defaults/333 & 665 OC'd 6200TC 78.03

10041 3D Mark 2001SE - Defaults/333 & 665 OC'd 6200TC 80.40
1060 3D Mark 2005 - Defaults/333 & 665 Oc'd 6200TC 80.40

I ran these with the AA/AF to Application Specified and the Image set to Quality.

No where near the 1st guys post. I'll try the modified driver .inf later.

Maybe, I'm doing something wrong, or I can do something better. Let me know!

PS - I run WoW with the triple buffered/verticle sync'd settings on - resulting in less tearing - and most of the time I'm at 60FPS. When IF is really busy I end up with 30-40FPS.

One thing that drives me crazy about WoW/6200 is that when I run into anything like steam, flowing water from a fountain, some spell effects, and some of the transparent effects, my FPS drops to mid-teens or less. Any ideas?

I get the same thing in Dungeon Siege II when it is snowing very hard. It doesn't stutter but the fps drop dramatically.

Update:
I borrowed 2X 1gb pc4200 Sodimms and put them in my S380p. Using the same 80.40 drivers and modded inf file as OiSkinhead I saw NO DIFFERENCE in 3dmark 05 scores as I posted using 2x512mb pc3200 sodimms. MYTH Busted, I appreciate how folks here politely challenged this person. Hopefully no-one wasted $ on this person's 15 minutes of false fame.

Hey guys, look here: OiSkinhead wrote in the first post that he overclocked 6200 to 635/370 - so it means that 635MHz is for GPU and 370MHz for mem (740MHz with DDR effect) so If the GPU core speed is true - 635MHz (though I overclocked a desktop version of 6200 and reached 492MHz for core maximum) than here is the result of twicing the performance in 3dMark05 - with 370MHz core you get about ~1100marks and with 635 you get ~1800 Logically - it's right, the processing speed is directly connected with the GPU clock and pipelines, but practically!!!! is it possibile to overclock GeForce Go 6200 in a NOTEBOOK UP TO 635MHz thats what is going to be with your notebook then ->
