- I want to see some proper Go8600GT benchmarks; but in "real" games, not the recent 3dmark tests which I personally believe are getting worse at true performance benchmarking.

On a different not; what do yout think about adding a "mobile Gfx card" lineup with performance descriptoion and ranking on the main page?
ie

1. Geforce Go7950GT SLI - the top end graphics chips for Mobile computers. These are generally found in the most powerful, expensive and largest Notebooks available. More often a desktop replacement than not. They reach apparent performance levels of two 7900GT in SLI
2. Geforce Go7950GT - blah blah blah
....
....
16. X600 Mobility Radeon - Low end chip now. Cannot play the latest games with any fluidity. Very similar but higher clocked version of the 9600 but with an altered bus: PCI-E instead of AGP.

hmm i think gfx card description wouldn't be that bad. it would sure help people when they try and buy a laptop. so yeah man, go for it

Ive read alot in this topic my CPU goes up to 88 C when i play games and is that good? i have a intel centrion duo

not good, have you tried dusting it?

honestly it's not uncommon, I've looked a lot into this as I have a core duo and it reaches 90 under load very commonly
I'm not saying it isn't a bad thing though I do as much as I can to keep temps down, the core duos shut off at 100C
mainly with mine it gets so hot because the fans don't kick in above 2000rpms unless I manually do it (don't ask why I'll never know, it's retarded) and I have a macbook pro which is very thin hence tight space
I found a prog that controls my fans and with max rpms I don't really go above 75C under full load

can you help me getting a program for controlling my fans?
ive tryed speedfan but it dont detect the fan

[nflesher87]

well buddy sorry to tell you that I don't think you'll be able to...the only way I can is because there's a program on mac that gives me control which I definitely need because I fold and my cpu's at 100% load 24/7
also what's cool is the speed carries over to when I boot to windows

what kind of laptop do you have?

Exactly; without that sort of information how do you expect us to help you. We need laptop model, system specs, and the name of the temperature monitoring program you are using.

oh and the one true will, im loading ubuntu on our desktop, yay!

[theonetruewill]

OK, I believe Acer's have a program called "epower" on the majority of there notebook range. personally I'd uninstall it as it's quite a resource hog and is, to put it quite frankly "total crap." Get Notebook Hardware Controls (NHC) (make sure you have NET. Framework 2.0 installed). Use this to then manually change your cpu to dynamic switching. You may even have some fan fuctionality via the ACPI feature (although I doubt this). Also, if you really want to lower your temps I suggest manually setting the voltages for each multiplier. This can be done on the CPU Voltage control page. You can try lowering the voltages for each slowly and testing with stability with Prime95 or orthos for a few hours. This will tests the stability of the processor at its new lower voltage. If this can be achiveed you will be surprised at the cooling results. Also, if you haven't got it, make sure you get Powerplay activated in the NHC ATi gfx card page. This can lower the frequency+voltage of the card further lowering ambient heat in the case. If this cannot be done, get the latest mobility drivers from the ATi.com site. If again this can't be done because your model is apparently "not supported" (load of b***s*** by the way)get the Omega driver versions which may activate this feature. However if the heat does get really quite bad, I suggest using NHC to cahnge the cpu management to "battery optimized". This slow it down unless under real load, but lowers the voltages and thus temps like a dream. Finally get a cooling pad. You can pick up some real cheap ones these days, and they don;t have to be large or noisy to be effective. Hope that helped.

PS play around with NHC for a while, it's a very neat & powerful piece of kit. I love it so much I put it on my desktop!
@ the Chang man, nicely done my friend. I personally tried one of those live disks, and it just wasn't me; so I'm impressed.

lol, im trying, i got it to install, but now im on the "how do i get the damn thing to go widescreen". live disk is nice though, you get a feel for the os before you actually use it

I suspect you have to install some alternative Linux video driver to enable the adaptor to get widescreen support.

that's what i think, i've been googling, and version 7.04 of ubuntu should've had it, but im updating it, maybe it'll magically pop up.

and 1000 posts, NICE :roc kout:

I got a LianLi Cooling pad + a Air Sucker that is used where the hot air comes out, so when im home using that i get it down to 15 degrees when i HardCore Play but when im at my moms place its up to 70-87 and yes i will try that NHC i removed Epower ALONG time ago

[Hello_Moto]

heys guys,

new to all this OC shennanigans....happened to come across this thread by chance and decided to delve into the world of laptop OCing. I didnt realise it could be so addictive.

Managed to undervolt my Pentium M 750 (1.86GHz) to 0.876V @ 4x and 1.212V @ 14x. Temperature difference is pretty amazing compared to when i had it running at 1.356V. OCing was a little more troublesome, especially trying to figure out which clock generator/PLL i could use for my Acer Aspire's 1693 "Crane" Mobo with Intel 915PM chipset.

Eventually managed to OC from 1.86GHz to a stable 1.92GHz using ClockGen......I cant figure out how theonetruewill was able to OC to 2.2GHz without the PC/laptop freezing! OCed my mobility X700 as well: core - 358@403, memory - 345@380. That's pretty much as far as i could go without my X700 starting to crash/not respond. However, i am a little confused as to why i am getting lower 3Dmark06 scores when everything is OCed in comparsion to normal. i thought the whoel point of OCing was for a performance boost.

With regard to cooling issues, a combination of Antec notebook cooler and Evercool's USB NB-MA1 cooler keeps the temperatures at around 49C when idle.

Any advice on how to OC above 1.92GHz on a Pentium M 750 would be appreciated.

To oc the Pentium M with no additional voltage options is indeed tiresome; however I will attempt to give you as much help as I can. There are several factors that are limiting you. Firstly that your CPU may simply not be stable above 1.92 without additional voltage. The second is one people for some reason tend to forget. You are overclocking your RAM too- and laptop RAM is far cheaper in its quality than good overclocking desktop memory. Thirdly your core may be getting to hot which agaiun limits your overclock. Watch those temperatures although I am pleased to see you have already taken this into account.
I suggest a burn-in strategy- Run your CPU @1.92 at one meter below your selected voltage for around 4 hours with orthos and a program called "Burn-Max"(I will link this to the guide soon). Then move it another 10MHz and test for another 4 hours. This slowly burn's in the processor and causes it to become more stable with a lower voltage- very useful for overclocking with out additional voltage on hand. Continue this until you reach your limits. Then attempt the same (but from your last limited stable overclock) with the highest voltage possible (default max voltage) and repeat. Eventually I got my pc from a stable 2Ghz to 2.2Ghz using this method. However you may not be so lucky; but I am hopeful you seem to have got past themost difficult bit: finding the damn pll

If I/we can help any more and if you have any more(or less) success please re-post. Welcome to the elite my friend.

(PS the lower 3DMark scores may be being caused by temperorary freezing of the GPU due to too high an overclock on the core or the memory. I suggest using a powerful game like Supreme Commander(this is what I use- sure way of checking if it's stable) or ATiTool and ATi Tray Tools both scanning for artifacts at the same time to check stability)

sweet good job man. as far as the OC do what the will said, but it may be it's getting to hot, or needs more voltage, and yes you are overclocking your ram, so that may be your limiting factor. as far as the x700 have you tried to make your fan in your laptop spin at max speed? i know that makes or breaks my gfx when i oc it (freezing/not freezing). as far as the 3d mark score, it may be because the cpu is overheating and it has to throttle back to save itself from dying. one more thing...how are the temperatures at load?

@ theonetruewill: you never told me about cpu burn in....i might just have to do that so i can drop the 12x multi to .95 (i hate how the voltage options stop there..)

[Hello_Moto]

@ theonetruewill:-

cheers for the pointers.

I forget to mention that i had also tried higher OCing >1.92GHz @ the default max. voltage of 1.356V but to no avail. Even at 1.356V, i cant seem to stably OC above 1.92GHz which, to me, is very perplexing seeing as you also have a Pentium M 750 and managed to achieved a stable 2.2GHz. OCing @ 1.92GHz and 1.356V causes temperatures to rise to 70C but nothing freezes, it's simply anthing above 1.92GHz where things start to go wrong.

By the way, do the various iterations of 3Dmark give differing scores when used on the same PC/laptop? I ask because 3Dmark06's graphics tests seem on par with something straight out of the latest PC FPS game and i know my aspire 1693 cant handle that smoothly. Currently getting 762 3Dmarks (default settings, nothing OCed) and 599 (CPU and mobility X700 OCed). Perhaps i could achieve a better score using 3Dmark03? I would have thought that my upgrading of the laptop's memory from default 512MB to 2GB would have also had an impact....seems like i was wrong lol.

Good luck with your GCSE results in August. Did mine back in '01....achieved 8A*s and 2As, I'm sure you'll achieve something similar, if not better.

at load:-

- OCed to 1.92GHz @ 1.356V........70C-71C (anything above 1.92GHz causes a freeze)
- OCed to 1.92GHz @ 1.212V.......62C-65C
- 1.86GHz @ 1.212V...................55C-60C

Quite frankly, i have no clue how to program ACPI script for use in NHC so i am relying on Acer's ePower management and eManager to control fan speeds and turning on/off various hardware components such as wireless/bluetooth/cardbus/firewire etc. I've selected for the laptop fans to be constantly on via eManager. Tried Speedfan but it couldnt detect my fan settings etc.

Essentially, I've got an Antec notebook cooler pad working its magic on the underside on my laptop, an Evercool NB-MA1 USB 3800RPM extraction fan (awesome little gadget!) augmenting the air flow within the laptop and the laptop's own fans constantly being on (although i have no idea at what RPM they are spinning at nor if there are any compatible programs that allow for manual RPM selection).
