Yes it is, does you ever read the first post? Does anyone ever read the first page before posting here?

I'm expecting this thread will be a serious discussion about modding, overclocking, game tweaks and tips. It turns out to be newbie q&a festival thread which most of them are already in the first page

Just to spice up this boring thread, this is how my lappie looks now (I hoping no newbie ask what is that). I've clean all the critical component, and applied Arctic Cooling MX-2 thermal paste. The fan now are reasonably quiet, instead of a high pitch whine now its only emit a low hum.

The fanmod shouldn't void any warranty, since there are no void stickers to be removed and there are no solder joints or hardmod on the fan

Don't try, just do it

In idle with resistor it around 50-54C for CPU in 2.1GHz and 47-50C at 1.05GHz, the GPU is around 50-53C at 2D speed (220MHz core 250MHz memory) or 53-55C at 729MHz core 603MHz memory in desktop. In load the GPU reaches only around 80C in GPU toaster FurMark, so in any games it wont even reach that temperature Remember, my resistance is 6.67 ohm, you could use lower (5 ohm) for faster speed or 10 ohm for more silent computing

Yes it'll work, even thumbdrive. I already mention that, I used my mouse on that as I'm typing this. Ground is a ground, it have no effect whatsoever. As long as you ground it somewhere

I put widescreengamingforum website for easy reference on first page, it have a huge list of games there. It gets almost all of my game in widescreen, like Doom3, Quake 4 CnC3 only the xception of MoHAA. I expect you guys read there instead of people spoonfeeding like babies

I just use a tape to secure it there so it wont move about

Yes its a single core strand, but since the hole is bigger I suggest you fold it into two, just put near the mouth and not all the way through, when it got good connection put a tape on the wire so it wont move about

Thnak you for the game detail/resolution test, I'll update the first post

Yes pretty much like so. Its just a normal translucent cello tape you found anywhere. Just use it near the USB port to make sure the wire dont move anywhere when you use it

If there is no sound, make sure the defaut device and default communication device is the same in playback device in sound properties in Windows, it only applied if you use SRS. If not I dont know

Nobody uses ubuntu here. That is so general question, you can google for the answer. Please for God sake dont ask stupid question

I found a way to open up the keyboard and the motherboard, and I found teh clock generator, its RTM880T-792. kucing if you can e-mail the setfsb dude to add up this clock generator please do so, I have rip up the lappy just to find it

There are 4 pressure contact on the keyboard, two near the Altec Lansing and SRS logo and the other two is near power and Wireless and caps lock indicator. Just push the contact inwards and pull the keyboard slightly, it should be off. But do it one by one

I try my best to find any overclock tool that have this lappy clock generator, but I cant find any sadly

The closest PLL I could get is RTM870T-691 but the CPU clock dont budge but strangely it will hang if I set it too high. What other PLL you have tried?

If there is such things as BIOS problem when flashing there will be people start to posting here
Read through? You not reading it THOROUGHLY enough. Read again, I have posted it, stop flooding this thread with dumb question

This is why people gets angry with you, and you still dont see it. I already stated it in few page back

Opening up the backpanel WILL NOT, I repeat WILL NOT void the warranty, even the fanmod don't void the warranty, unless you rip up the CPU HSF then the warranty is voided since there are warranty sticker there

When asking question, put the question mark in right place. That is correct, for 2100 set to 1.05V and for 1050 set to 0.9V

In AMD GPU Clock Tool there is 1.2V option but I'm unable to select it, but I found a bug how to do it, find the limit of your GPU clock, run it a while until it hangs, if it manage to recover that hang without reboot it will run at 1.2V all the time after that!

I'm testing the GPU at 760MHz now, no kidding. I've tested 3DMark06, the scores dont increase much though, only breaking the 3500 barrier. Looks like its starving on memory bandwidth rather than fillrate

Yes exactly. It would be good if I can change the memory voltage and timing though, maybe I can at least squeeze to 625MHz and got at least 10GB/s bandwidth

Maybe that would be better, but I dont mind the reflective screen

About the ASUS latest driver, it works well for me, both in dGPU and PowerXpress.

Wow, is it really that bad? Hmm, what BIOS did you use? I just flashed to 213 BIOS last week, previously I use the 'older' 216 BIOS. Both works well though, maybe I should try the ancient 203 BIOS just for fun
