Thanks ellement. Does anyone know of a possible replacement for the 4750? I probably won't have all the money for my laptop for the next 3 or so months. That's why I'm researching early. I want to get an AMD for cost and energy consumption issues. But that Mobility 9700 is worrying me. Will Sager come out with a next generation AMD machine? Should I wait? Please let me know. Thanks...

I want to underclock my laptop so that I can make it run max at 1.9 ghz instead of 2.2 ghz, is there a way I can do this?

I believe this is the thread you want to read.

Thanks for posting Jchanc04! It's nice to see another happy 4750 owner. Hopefully mine will ship next week.

Sorry, I did not get to this thread sooner, I did not realize it had been brought back to life. As much as I thought I would be gaming (being in college) I have yet to put a newer game on that C&C Generals. Nothing demanding by Doom3 standards. So I cannot answer those questions. I know the 9700 is showing its age and I'm really excited about the succesor the the 4750 with pci-e, whever that comes out (Hint: anyone have a release date). I mainly use the 4750 for Premiere. When our student TV station's Computer died, my lappy was volontered for replacement duty, putting together two complete shows until I got a grant to build a new AMD64 3500 system. (damn those usb and firewire headers are a pain). My idle temps have increased due to dust to around 41-3 degrees celcius, and my max load temps have increased to around 80. Early in the lappy's life I got to the critical 90 degrees while encoding a DVD and working Premiere.
Battery life expect almost 1.5 hours web surfing/ work processing and I was suprised to find out 45 minuts with Premiere. Sitting on the porch and actually seeing the sun while you edit is a refreshing experience. This thing can get lound when not set to use PowerNow! running at 800mhz. I have a targus xl backpack to carry it around along with a DVD burner and external harddrive and books, not that bad with the backpack. The notebook and powerbrick are not too heavy and the notebook is suprisingly thin.
