15x nvidia drivers anyone?

anyone have drivers from nvidia for the m15x, or drivers besides the alienware ones that support M8800 card?

 

I tried these and they worked http://www.notebookforums.com/thread213912.html

 

Do they keep the clock speeds up Gravely?

 

They may have worked, but do they actually "work". As in the clock speeds are maxed after installing it

 

well, this is pretty cool, at least the 8800m GTX is in the list:

NVIDIA_G92.DEV_060C.1 = "NVIDIA GeForce 8800M GTX

 

Even cooler, did you see the 9800M GTX?

 

oh snap! dang we should have waited for the m19x with the 9800M GTX and Monty mommy board....lol ;-)

 

s'alright, the m15x should be good for it when it comes out

 

so wait has any1 tested it and it works as in the card doesnt run at a slower speed or?

 

I'll attempt to run I guess since no else appears to be willing. Geez.

 

hehe thanks lessaj

 

Ok, installed them. Confirmed to be still downclocking.

EDIT: Also ran Crysis just to confirm that the clocks weren't being incorrect. I don't have an FPS to compare with, but it actually ran pretty smoothly.

EDIT2: Seeing interesting things with the clocks, adding picture soon.

 

I think we should really consult with the Clevo subforum on this issue. They've been onto it for a while now and it would be interesting to know their results. I've briefly looked over the discussion and it appears it may have something to do with either the BIOS or VBIOS and that some allow driver updates without downclocking, while others don't.

 

use the built in one

press "~" (console)
type "r_displayinfo 1" and press enter

if your tilde key doesnt work in game, exit out of your game, go to device manager, and unistall(it comes back dont worry thou actually this is annoying ) the 3 microsoft E home things then run crysis and it should work but i find that those 3 come back quite quickly but once you load a game with them unistalled\temporary disabled, u will be able to use the ~ key in it.

 

THanks Demon, but that's not what I meant. Here's the picture.

Clocks change after I openned crysis.

 

Are they changing in-game though?

If they aren't this could just mean the drivers have been changed such that they respond to when you're in 3D applications and when you're not. That's often the case but isn't with the m15x for whatever reason (always max clock)

 

Will test further as soon as I am able. Raiding ATM.

 

heh, oh WoW players

 

People are ****ing retards, honestly. Called early. Anyway, I want to confirm what I said before, still downclocks.

I forgot that I did have an FPS reference from when I made my 2 m15x videos. In one specific spot I had ~16-17 FPS on the old drivers. Tested the exact same spot on the new drivers and had 11 FPS. Sorry guys.

Also just put my old drivers back and had 20 FPS in that spot (the old FPS reference was before I had installed the Natural Mod).
