mine is 1333, n its elpida..

If you use hwinfo, it'll show that it is 1333MHz.... but running at 1066Mhz...
For resale value for ram, get same speed like Kingston 1333MHz...

I not sure whether it is true, but when I ran HWINFO32, the factory installed RAM on slot 0 shows
1066 Mhz and my add-ons 2GB Kingston RAM shows 1333 Mhz.

If your RAM is 1333 Mhz, it does not matter as for i5-430M, the max speed for RAM will be 1066 Mhz.
So even if you purchase RAM with 1333 Mhz, it will downclock to 1066 Mhz.

well, izzit hard to find elpida notebook ram? coz i mostly saw kingston n other ram...

btw, how to use hwinfo to check my 310m? it only detect my intel tho

but nvm, i use siw to check my info, thnx..

Yeah, but its just me. I like to buy same speed RAM. Hahahahaha...

Mine slot 0 show 1333Mhz by the way. Probably mine is newer A42JV than yours

Elpida harder to find bro. Good luck in your search. But you can buy any brand also. It will still run dual channel.

Master Lee,

I see you OC your GPU.
GPU-Z shows Intel i5-520 (5 series) processor ??

Is it supposed to be i5-450M for A42JV?

Also notice your GPU temperature at 77 degree C.
Is that idling temperature or during playing game?

So far, u OC GPU to 575 Mhz, any problem and improvement you encounter so far.

Share with us.

Thanks.

I use HWMonitor and it show I5-520 also... i believe the program is not updated....

mine shows i5-450m, but its u35jc tho

Alright thanks.

the only thing holding me back from getting the a42jv is this problem of optimus not switching to the dedicated graphic card.

so wit the right driver, it works fine now?

Yes, definitely it will switch to dedicated graphics. Dun worry. I'm owner. I 100% sure it will switch to dedicated graphic. Else,
you can get refund from me. Hahahhaa

that's good to know. thanks

hope i'll get my hands on one soon!

but im waiting for A52jv..haha

Guys i wanna ask how to make the nvidia graphics to run at lower frequency?
when i open CpuZ it shows my GT 335m can run at lower Mhz when running just 2d desktop apps...
now my graphic idle is always 450 Mhz / 790 Mhz @ 0.90V
temp is around 57-59 degrees

if you 2D desktop apps, why are you using nvidia graphics? shouldn't it be using Intel IGP? did u check properly that
it uses nvidia?

Please follow the video in first post to check what current graphic card is using.

Anyway, you can use Rivatuner to overclock/underclock your GPU:

its using the intel graphic..
im using gadget and GPUZ to moniter the temp and frequency...
even tho its running the intel graphic how come my temp still so high?

my gpu also aournd 55C if im not using it...

btw,

for those who thinks their cpu temp is hi,

power4gear hi performance will set ur min n max proc state to 100% iianm..

try set ur minimum lower n c how it goes....

Then the heat is from something nearby the GPU... you know, CPU, GPU, hardisk, all enclosed together
inside the small laptop. The temperature could come from anywhere...

if you not using nvidia, you reduce frequency also no use bro...hahahaha

n altho im not using 310m, the temp still the same either the gpu is on load or not..

cause last time i had a acer 4741g the 310m only showing temp of 40+ degrees on idle..
and i remember last time when i never use the nvidia graphic on my a42jv the frequency will lower by itself...
damn strange now lol anyone have this problem also?

i try my setting on battery saving also same...
