Maybe you can post that result in the GPU Benchmark thread to share?

BTW, What system are you using? M17x i7 720QM with single 4870?  hmm.gif

i think the cost to replace will costs a bomb, thats why they didnt bare to change it. i thought the prev guy got his unit swapped + topup due to his current unit which is quite problematic.

no cannot ,the vga possition and HDMI position have been change
so no,cannot.,nada,puk neng,
If u have the money and ball better change the CPU to SU9600...
keep the r1 and wait for r3 (if any) ...if u been following other forum you can see the gain is only by 500 in benchmark06
and for the money not worth it. sweat.gif
if can jump to 8k then i might consider to sell my granny wheel chair laugh.gif

Depends on the game. It runs The Sims 3 + Expansions & Oblivion on a high setting pretty well.
Those 2 are the games I constantly play anyway.

The ones I'm talking about earlier was with the C2D, which over clocked to 1.6.

Im still yet to receive my new M11X. It should be within this week or early next week. sad.gif

Erm im assuming the Core i3-330UM @1.2GHz can be OCed from its 133MHz Bus Speed to 166MHz like the i7-640um..

So 166MHz x 9= 1494MHz ~1.5GHz

There's no turbo boost on the ULV i3 neither the Normal i3.

many were talking about multitasking and their definition varies. some were talking about video editing and conversion while surfing, music and movie at the same time, some might want to game and have video editing running in the background etc. you see, it varies. hence, the the processor's capability handling that kinda multitasking varies too.

it would better if you can define your type of multitasking and probably we can advise you better.

it all boils down to your everyday usage, needs and what kinda multitasking do you do.

many M11x users here are on SU7300.

been on with SU7300 for 4 months and i don't notice any lag or dip in performance when multitasking (Firefox with 5-6 tabs min + downloads running, iTunes, Windows Live Messenger, occasional Adobe Photoshop CS3, uTorrent, file transfer etc.).

while gaming, gamebooster will be enabled and most of the time I will just leave Firefox running. Hardly any noticeable lag too.

and ohh ya there's no turbo-boost for i3s btw. wink.gif
