as the pic states... the top one is called CPU Meter G3... right now there's a newer version called G5~ u can get it here~ second one is called System Information where it displays ur comp's hardware and the specs~ u can find it in the link posted previously~ as for the Intel CPU monitor... u can get it here~ fourth gadget is pretty useful... it's a CPU and RAM monitor plus a HDD and recycle bin monitor and also acts as an internet radio... get it here... GPU temperature monitor and volume tuner from OrbLog (link provided above)... and the Shut Down controller from here~ the bottom right is a Wi-Fi monitor called Xirrus Wi-Fi monitor and u can get it from MS Gallery~ the second on the left is a control panel to eject ur DVDs and CDs~ also from MS Gallery~ biggrin.gif

Alienware M15x doesnt seems to be good quality as well, u cant compare like this bro.
Alienware expensive and performance lower than Sager which sager offer the same price with better performance....

well... no laptop is perfect and it goes down to the person to see if he/she likes it or not~ as for me... I've seen that AW has gone a great leap forward since 2004 with it's first laptop the Area-51M~ and most of em were 'plasticky' compared to today's tough structure of the M11x, M15x and M17x~ icon_rolleyes.gif

nah... pretty much the same issue as mine... but I don't really care much as I can go configure it via Windows' Control Panel~ or it's better if I use a mouse~ tongue.gif

Because graphics memory depends on the resolution used? hmm..
*
I don't think memory matters much... as I see that 512MB is enough for me... but it's still better to have more la... 1GB should be good enough... what matters is the GPU clock speed~ as I've checked the standard GTX 260M runs on 550MHz on standard speed... (Crysis runs good enough) and it only consumes around 200MB of my GPU memory~ Mirror's Edge around 180MB... but as for the clock speed it goes idle at 200MHz when you're on battery mode or even when it's plugged in but for normal operation it still stays there... that is until some game kicks in then it goes full speed ahead~ tongue.gif as for me... I've OCed it to 650MHz to pump up that extra frames in games so that I can see how much I can push it~ but I just wish that Asus could make a mobile version of ARES so that we can see power lappie fragging with no lag at all~ tongue.gif (1.2GHz on a GPU like ARES is totally IMBA!!! ) drool.gif

just make sure your power supply wont blow..because when you OC it draws more power..the PS only cope to 150watt..if you smell heat coming out from PS..better reduce your clock..when on long gaming session it may blow or cause you being lock up because of BIOS safety feature when power overload.. sweat.gif

it just stays at 1.0V~ I dun dare to change anything~ unsure.gif

I think it's just a cheaply made china phone base on Nokia 8800.

That said, I gotta say it's sort of cool lol.
But then again, thinking of buying a mobile phone from oversea? You gonna have tonnes of troubles with Kastam in malaysia :/
I tried once and it was extremely unpleasant. - -

Oh..lol i see..Might be an answer for the throttle issues.

Ah anyway good news to all M15x user, A08 bios is out! Go grab it!
I've heard they fix the CPU throttling and smoother touchpad now.
Gonna do it right away.

EDIT:
Updated to A08, delighted by the touchpad now! It feels like I'm on a different laptop lol.
Gonna see if there is any improvement on cpu or not.

I tried copying it to my Kingston DataTraveler G2 16GB but the application refused to copy to my usb drive... tried another attempt on my 2GB one also refused to copy~ so guess I have to try the CD burning again.. but I'm out of CD-Rs~ vmad.gif cry.gif


Added on September 5, 2010, 11:47 pmor I guess I'll just skip another one till they release an ISO file which doesn't waste my CDs~ tongue.gif

You don't copy the downloaded bios file into your usb thumbdrive - -
You download the bios exe and run it, it will prompt you, you will have to format the usb drive.

yea la... doh.gif the application pops out stating 2 choices of either to copy the files to a USB drive or burn to a disc ma~ I plug in my USB drive it formats it and then it hangs~ unsure.gif
