i got 3100 but that probably because i put power settings on home/office. I noticed that it lowers cpu to 1.31 if you leave it on portable/laptop. This computer is fast Just got it yesterday at bestbuy. Installed day of defeat source and most wanted and it played it like nothing and smoothly. the 2 gb ram really helps. Oh and dont look at the 128 bit settings because it doesnt matter for gaming since i play need for speed at a steady rate 30 fps at highest resolution supported. Day of defeat source which demands the most of source games was at 40 fps plus average. This laptop is a beast enough said. Dont look at the specs too much it makes it look weak. The 1.66 is faster than my 3.2 pentium prescott. oh and another thing 2 harddrives does help...just put games on one and other programs on other! Best laptop by far at $1500 dollars!

dv9035nr is a BEAST!

Whats up people. I bought mine about a week and a half ago. Pretty sweet laptop for the money. I've been playing BF 2142 on it using NGO's 92.91's and a mild overclock using coolbits, runs chill and am quite happy with it.

Took it to Florida and although it is big it's all good, i wanted a big laptop.

will be checking out NGO's newest driver based on Nvidia's most recent offering. Will run some benchies to let anyone interested know.

out.

Hmmm. Just a bit of a check up if anybody is interested. I've ran 3dmark06 a few times left and right, with varying frequency changes...and thus far have come up with 2610 ish using NGO 93.71's and coolbits. Core 500 and memory 900 DDr...so thats that.

BF2142 is pretty fun to play on this laptop.

Anyways...will tweak it some more to see what the deal is.

one.

Would you guys recommend this laptop then over something like Dell's E1705? They're both pretty comparable pricewise (with even higher stats on the dell using coupons), but I kind of like the dv9000t's design and features a little better...

the only thing i'm worried about though is whether or not it'll have problems playing games like AOE:III, sid meijers pirates, gtaIII:san andreas, and maybe some of the newer 1st person shooters on high/higher settings, as the 7600 is quite a bit slower from the geforce 7900 go from what I've heard...

thanks for any help

good question. I looked high and low for a laptop that had pretty decent power for everday business tasks and gaming. I really wasnt looking for a true DTR but something nonetheless quite capable, and at a good price.

personally this laptop suites me nicely. I play BF2142 and it runs awesome. There have been times where I've sat down to play for 5 or so hours. The gameplay is fluid and the response is great. Overall the whole package is pretty damn good bang for the buck wise.

NO DOUBT that the 7900 is eating the 7600 for breakfast. No doubt at all. I guess it all comes down to money.

I bought my 9035nr b/c I could get it right then and there. For me....it is not a DTR but something that can easily tackle almost any task.

The laptop looks sweet. It may not be for everybody...but I dig the glossy black and the imprint finish.

I've also played Splinter Cell Double Agent on this machine and it looks sweet as hell....but im really not into the 3rd person view. Counterstrike source runs like a hot knife thru butter.

HL2 and company looks really sweet especially in widescreen format.

Anyways....

killer bang for the buck, no doubt.

of course man... intel core 2 duo and 7600 dedicated what more do you need..laptops are not meant for gaming so this is a gift at $1,500 dollars/ GO FOR IT YOU WONT REGRET IT. Also buy the accidental 3 year warranty for security reasons. I work at Geek Squad and i feel sorry for all those people that have expensive sony vaios and cant repair them because they didnt get accidental . $1,500 is really cheap for all the little extras you get plus its 2 gbs of memory and 160 in TWO drives so you can always upgrade in the future and keep your first drive with OS on it.

I'm no best buy salesman. but I bought mine from a best buy salesman. anyways.... the laptop is overall really mad chill. seriously, for this kind of money it's hard to beat the overall package you get in this laptop. Speaking specifically of the Merom, the 2 gigs of DDR, the 7600, the twin disks of storage, and the 17, oh and more. but im not trying to pitch this laptop. it just works for me. I recently updated the bios to v6 and the i945pm chipset updated along with 93.81 forcewares with a modded INF from laptopvideo2go I got 2600 on 3dmark 06, but that is with a 525 core and 900 DDR using Riva Tuner.... BF2142 is so fun to play on this laptop using headphones.... carry on. this is an edit. so i've been reading the posts from the thread originators saying they got like 3100 or even 3000 on 3dmark2006. i....simply cannot obtain that score. my 9035nr is pretty optimized tho. i removed all of HP's blah blah and have the core essentials for what I do daily. my drivers are all optimized, disks optimized and you know. the routine. can anyone getting over 3000 on 3dmark06 (default settings) show me how as well?

Got the next step up form the 9035, the 9033cl, and its awesome. The only major difference is the hard drives are upgraded to 100 gb each, for 200 total. The only thing i am having problem with is that im not used to typing on a full laptop keyboard yet, used to the slightly smaller laptop keyboard. But i am likeing the keypad, and im sure i'll get used to it.

Question for other 9000 owners, do your keyboards not quite feel right, like some of the keysdepress at a slight angle, and the space key is loud compared to the other keys.

Im pulling a 4033 in 3dmarko5 running a 482/450 clock using coolbits. 17.7 fps avrage through proxycon.


edit: im now upto a 554/466 clock and it appears to be stable. going to run 3dmark05 now

Main Test Results

3DMark Score 4369 3DMarks

CPU Score 6784 CPUMarks



Detailed Test Results


Game Tests
GT1 - Return To Proxycon 19.1 fps

GT2 - Firefly Forest 13.5 fps

GT3 - Canyon Flight 20.7 fps

for a total of just over 4369 in 3dmark05 i did notice a slight artifacting in canyon flight, so i am going to turn it down a notch. Prolly end around 4150 - 4200. I am also going to run baseline tests tomorrow, so i have a benchline to go from.

ok, at a stock 450/350, i got a 3500 in 3dmark05. so if i can put up with a slight artifact, thats a 23% increase. not bad. Now i wonder if i could do a gt bios flash, adn run even higher?

U do know overclocking a laptop is a bad idea, overclocking a desktop can happen because increased thermal output can be adequately dissipated maintaining the operational integrity of the overclocked parts, as this is not possible with a laptop, ur just asking for trouble.

right. overclocking certainly doesnt prolong your laptops life. I do it regardless. within reason and in certain enviroments I believe it's okay. Not radical overclocks but mild..

Using 97.73's

Rivatuner @ 495 core and 814 memory

3dMark2006=2300
