New M6500 Discussion Thread

mitchellboy,


Sweet, Core i7 940XM will come in Q3 2010

and Moble Processor Intel Core i7-940XM


Google: Intel Core i7 940 XM



Good deal,

 

Nvidia ntune utility. You could also use Riva Tuner (which allows you to create profiles)
For Ntune it adds an Performance tab to your Nvidia control panel.
The other tabs are flaky, but the tab to change your clock and memory settings work perfectly.

10% overclock is pretty standard. However I dialed it in at about 8% for stability sake.

Right now I am at 746Mhz for the Core
And 1075 for the memory bus.

The biggest benefit? It bumped my windows experience score to 7.0 for the graphics. My e-peniis is officially huge.

For practical use, you probably would only notice like a 5 FPS increase for 3d apps.
System is stable, but if you don't game this option is not even worth it but at least its an option.

 

FYI
I finally got a answer today from Dell, to my question, “When can I order a M6500 with USB3”
It got bucked around until this gentleman answered it.
From Jason Leandra AKA Product manager “Not until the next refresh, it will be a while”
What was I expecting, a date!!!

 

Can the Dell Guy on this thread please respond to this? Are we waiting our lives away for nothing (for nothing for me is over a month longer)?
Also, when is the m4500 and m2500?..those haven't been refreshed in a year and a half or so Anyway you cut it, they're being slower than smoke off shinola....

 

theZoid,



I am not the dell guy, but this is what I come across today:

The option is available in the Large Business Section of the dell’s site.



I hope this helps,

 

MannyA...which option?

EDIT: Holy Crap....let me call my rep.....thanks

 

Boy did you just stir up the hornets nest with that link! If the Large Bussiness has the option then the small and medium should as well, yet it doesn't how stupid!

 

dezoris,



This is excellent information, and everything is stable?


Thank You,

 

And I was too impatient to wait! guess I'll have to buy it separate and have dell come out and install it!

 

looks like that's how they're sliding it into the config....interesting
