QUOTE(awyongcarl @ Sep 9 2010, 06:37 PM) Haha I see. Well I can get the clock to work similar like a 5870..So I guess it isn't worth for me. Guess I'll wait for something better lol. Yup. I set my clocks to work like ...er... no comparable Mobility card but probably a future ATI 5970 card at 880/1180 and I don't pass 80celcius after an hour of playing. In your case no point getting la since the diff is within a 100mhz. QUOTE(Alienewbie @ Sep 9 2010, 08:46 PM) I bought mine for 12 grand back then. Lol! Now as I am leaving Malaysia to Australia, and am gonna need a lighter notebook. SERIOUSLY! By the way, my HD 5870 is able to overclock to desktop HD 5770 level at 850 and 1200. Cool ain't it? I am actually running an Intel X25-M 160GB + 500GB 7200 RPM setup for the HD. Just putting back the 640 RAID 0 hard disks for Dell future warranty claiming purpose. You can even OC even higher than that like how the NBR Forumers overseas do. above 900/1200 I've seen..... sorry to hear u wanna let go of this behemoth of a monster. All the best in your sales...... @Hackremo: Awaiting good news

QUOTE(zorbyss. @ Sep 12 2010, 12:27 AM) wow. nice "Mothership" you got. very systematically done. just drop by here to do some research (hope you welcome the stranger  ). So far, have m15x and m11x experience any major problem? I read the reviews by google-ing. it says problems were the weight, fan noise, keyboard noise plus plus. no offence . i love gaming and i had my own studio xps 16 which i found that her graphics performance wasn't enough for me (soon for new games like MW3, DB3++). i'm a college student studying away from home. but moving constantly back home weekly. is m15x or m11x ideal for me? thanks in advance for all the sifus around.  I think M11x is ideal for moving around, but the GPU on the M15x will be a better performer and closer in size to your XPS (Screen = 15.6"). But with the M15x you'll have to carry double the weight if you don't mind plus a bag which can fit a 17" notebook. Both GPUs are more capable than the GPU on your currnet XPS thus I feel can play games like Diablo3 and Modern Warfare though I can readily say from a M15x point of view but iirc Playing those on the M11x was fine as well minus Diablo 3 which hasn't been launched..

Battery life for the m15X with the 9 Cell is about an hour with gaming or less even. The added hump of the 9cell does make it more difficult for me to store the notebook in my backpack notebook compartment so I think taking out the battery might be a soloution.

QUOTE(Eugene91 @ Sep 12 2010, 02:28 PM) I haven't tried Metro 2033.. Looks super demanding for my desktop..  You should try. Really taxes your GPU but I love the graphic details and smoke etc. For the GTX 260M I managed to play only high smoothly with a bit of OC. With the ATI 5870 I managed better fps which I can say is around 30fps smoothness with DX11 Settings Tesselation ON and Advanced DOF OFF but everything else on VERY HIGH. I doubt I reach 40-60fps during battle scenes....

No idea. You can't run stealth mode using battery last I checked. I would say if you can underclock everything, still less than 2 hours....?
