i already picked it up so far i am content few off things about it, all probably mentioned before, the exhaust being on the right side, so u get hot air blowing on ur mouse hand, almost feels like a blow dryer going on low constantly, and then the fat32 partitions, had to break out partitionmagic, fixed that, ran CCleaner to adjust any registry problems, i took off almost all pre installed software except the ePower management program that acer provides, then loaded the omega drivers, dropped ati catalyst, installed trend micro, i think it provides the most complete protection and is one of the most less intrusive antiviruses, It's like a major pet peev when i get on a system and there are like 20 apps loaded in the taskbar, especially with a laptop, i need a fast load time, hmm oh yea i think i also bought into dual core hype, i think i was expecting more, because it seems like one of my AMD Athlon 2400+ 2ghz is giving me more speed, but i think it's cuz i went for the 1.66 ghz, i should have sprung for at least the 2ghz, but i think i will just wait until the merom dual core's are released and throw one those babies in there, hopefully by tax refund time a new cpu and another gb of ram, should keep me content, but all in all this is a slick laptop, and there will always be qwerks, but i mean it's something i'll adjust to, unless i got to sit down somewhere and personally test several laptop's i doubt i would find something perfect for me, but this is a decent system, just spend that extra 100 or 200 on newegg and get that additional 500mhz if you plan on this, and be ready to spend the day uninstalling and cleaning out old software, and running thru the msconfig and disabling non essential services and startup apps. Look on the brightside now i got those new nifty Windows Vista Compatible Stickers on here...didn't see that on other peoples pictures of there 5672...

Little on the Low side huh?

So this is a dissapointing read, i figured it would be in the 2000 range, like i heard others say, maybe i don't have this configed correct, it's the first time i have used 3Dmark06 any suggestions, maybe a possible conflict with omega drivers that might not work right with 3dmark???

yea, i just did a full format on my hdd, and installed windows xp pro on a ntfs file system, got all my drivers installed, epower, and launch manager, and as well as NOD32 as a virus scanner, and let me say this bad boy is flying now, at first i thought i could just combine the 2nd two partitions, the acerdata and my C: drive, but then i thought, even if converted to ntfs, i am screwing myself, because the PQSERVICE paritions (acer recovery partition) is at the beginning of the HDD in fat32, so it would ultimately still slow my system down, it was like having a badly fragmented hdd, this is my theory, but that has to be removed, and a fresh instal done, this increasing load times, as they are coming from the beginning of the drive instead of further back. my processes are now 31, and this is flying, seriously, imma hafta redownlod 3dbenchmark, and check what my overall increase was, but like i heard someone mention before on these forums, damn numbers if your system is fast to you.

yea about the 3rd day of owning my 5672, i did a full format, and said oh well, like mentioned in another thread, if you call acersupport and say you are computer savvy and all your partitions are currupt even the pqservice partition they will send you out a 'Actual" recovery disk that was one my priorities, just to have "in case" maybe i wanna sell this sometime later down the road, but not anytime soon as i think this baby is gonna last me a minute, and i think althought the heat is higher the equipment is rated to handle higher temperatures, and yea, just keep a little desk fan aime on ur armrest while u type, and it does wonders.. the following games run very well on here... "CounterStrike, and anything on the Source engine..HL2, DOD, RED ORCHESTRA,etc... age of empires III, Enemy territory..lol (it's a classic ) COD2, Rainbow Six Lockdown, Act of War: High Treason,Farcry, Heroes of the Pacific I got Ghost Recon: AW laying around here, but i didn't bother to install it, as i didn't care for the gameplay, but i mean i got it to run on a athlon 2400+ with a softmodded 9800se, (on the lowest possible settings) so i'am sure it will run on here, as it has the same requirements as obilivion minus being PhysX compatible. but yea, only got a few first person shooters, i am still playing mostly older games, age of empires II axis and allies, even warcraft II lol...but yea i run alotta 3D apps, autocad '07, 3D Studio Max 8, and Poser 6 all flawless.. and now i got everything on here the way i like, i run 30 processes, and use 205mb of ram, and usually don't even take the ePower mgmt off of medium cpu settings unless it's 3D, something 3D, but you get this machine your gonna be content with this, i think the heat is a factor, but peope inflate it into such a bigger issue wait until Intel Releases Quad Core Processors imagine what kinda heat that will put out, take the heat on the left side now and double it..lol hopfully a better cooling and heat dispursement technology's will come about, but like most things, it's not really invented until there is a need, now that these things are getting more powerfuly, there gonna get hotter, besides i think we are on a big jump like we havent' seen since the mid to late 90's we kinda been in a technological recession, and with intel gaining stride again, and alotta announcements of new things to come, and even apple will get some credit for pushing the envelop on making visual pleasing as well as able to handle incredible workloads, and new battery types are being developed that use micro bacteria, and last almost 10 times longer then current battery systems on the market...lol damn i got on a rant,but yea you see where i am going with this..uh i think.
