    I've seen an issue with my 3870s and 4870s with cat 9.11 where upon starting a benchmark there may be some corruption where I have to restart it and then it's fine. Is that what your seeing?

    for now!

    And I will add that is with a driver that runs pretty badly on the M17x, the colors are all messed up (cannot be fixed - is a problem with the whole 185 series) and the control panel is very unstable

    Don't go leading people on now Don ;)

    Nothing against you Moo, but I do not see 2 GTX 260m's getting past the 11,500 mark

    And do you have a second M17x heatsink for it?! (different then the M15x one obviously)

    The changes are done, i will start adding a picture-link to the name of somebody who has a high game score. I already did it with mandrakes since they are recent. I also added a SSD benchmarking section to keep track of the best result of each model. One test of your SSD is more then enough (its not a competition). Anyone got another idea to put in the first post?

    I suggest that you put a thumbnail Avatar of the benchers next to their score.

    mm i could try that and see what gives. It cuts away alot of text which is what i am trying to realize. less text so it looks cleaner

    wat would be a good size? But i have to change it each time somebody changes avatar. Unless everybody chooses a benchmark avatar and sticks with it this is gonna be hard to do i think.

    Or you could use the link to the image that the forum uses. Even though I don't know if the forum will let you link them up like that. Example:

    Click on any member: Rengsey R. H. Jr. It will send you to the profile.

    Then, in the address bar replace the word "member" with "image"

    At profile:
    http://forum.notebookreview.com/member.php?u=278444

    After change:
    http://forum.notebookreview.com/image.php?u=278444

    You could try playing around with that.

    Edit:
    Well the IMG tag doesn't work on it. Is there another way? Too bad if not.

    They all went to the M17 OC thread. Mandrake is successfully bringing the M17 back to the mix.
