yes it is. I just downloaded it.
i'll try the link above. -
Not sure if this is the correct place to be posting this but here goes:
This is not a rant, i am asking for advice.
When i first got my M17x everything ran fine, playing games in sli mode or single card mode. 3 months later and i find i can't play any games in sli mode without constant stuttering, uneven frame rates. It is really noticable when playing racing games like Dirt. I can't even get round one course without going off the track because ot stuttering. I think i get the micro stutter on both sli and single card configuration, this i can live with as it only happens every 60 seconds or so. But in sli i have no chance ot playing any sort of game as it is way to eneven game play, even on my bench mark runs i notice it. I have tried all diferent drivers, hybrid enabled and diabled, could there be a problem with one of my graphics cards?? Example, running Fur mark in single card at a lower resoution 800x600 it is completly smoth, but with sli enabled usinf the same resolution ti is very jerky. It is the same result for higher resolutions aswell? Any ideas??

^^ there is an entire topic dedicated to stuttering issue by BatBoy ... look it up on the main page ... some "magic" info there will get you going !!

So far it looks like the 280M are still better price/performance compared to the ATI.
When will we have more ATI benchmark to decide what really is faster? -
cookinwitdiesel Retired Bencher
whenever the 4870 owners get off the couch and start doing some hardcore benches for us!
-
I thought a couple of ATI owners have already.
-
cookinwitdiesel Retired Bencher
aparently the masses are not satisfied
I just want to see some Vantage numbers with well OC'd cards....but that is just me -
i think they are at a stand still for the moment...since no one can over clock.
and all i keep hearing is stock...."looking at my avatar for a minute....who cares about stock!" (LMAO!..just kidding) -
cookinwitdiesel Retired Bencher
no one can, or no one has
I refuse to believe there is nothing that can be done...... -
speaking of benching...im at 27098 vantage single card..puts me at 11th..need like 50 points to get to 9th..grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Here is a refresh of my last bench.

I'm sure Mandrake can get higher, since his CPU will OC a lot higher than 2.93xx -
yes, but what does it look like without you over clocking your cpu?
people tend to forget that ati cards seem to be far better with an over clocked cpu than over clocking the gpus by themselves.... -

nah, i edited that post...it was jacked up.

O.k. Here was a Bench of Vantage that me and Praetorian77 did awhile back. We both had the same m17x specs with the exception of me having the ATI's and his being SLI. And both were running at Stock CPU , no OC.
Rengsey: P10463 : GPU 10219 : CPU 11270

Praetorian77 P10416 : GPU 10190 : CPU 11158

I agree John, looks like my GTX 280m are still going to be able to hold their own

seems to be missing allot of 4870's in there...and here it is nov...
it should look something like this....

here is my benchmark with Vantage

not too bad...imo

looks like your over clocked

i'm only running stock gpu because my overclocking isn't showing nothing on other things.
testing...... testing..... -
this only pertains to the 4870's in the m17x's...since they can't over clock the gpu...
and as everyone already knows..ati cards do far better with an over clocked cpu than they do without one. and last we checked...it didn't yield a very big gain just over clocking the gpus only for them.
and i know this to be true because i over clocked my ati card to be sure. -
dondadah88 Notebook Nobel Laureate
yes i remember.
-
Rengsey R. H. Jr. I Never Slept
I'm just gonna say that SLI 280ms and CrossFireX 4870s are on par with each other when comparing stock runs. I do want to see what is the full potential of the 4870s if they were able to also OC GPU.
As it stands now neither setup of the m17x is not a bad choice. -
I felt better after I ran it and it was over 10k....I really wish there was an easy way to overclock the gpu though

You guys need to benchmark some things like Resident Evil 5 and Devil may cry 4 .. Things that can take advantage of DX10.1 when using AA .. Need some of those comparisons against the 280s ..
-
cookinwitdiesel Retired Bencher
using dx10.1 against 280s wouldnt be that fair...lol
Has no one been able to flash the bios of the 4870s? -
Why is my CPU score so high?
For some reason my signature is not showing up...It's a Q9000 OC to 2.4 -
-
-
The ultimate benchmark. Ordered my system on 11/2 and it's coming on 11/10. 8 days from order to receiving it. Beat that!
-
hahaha. not the lucky cpu still...can't it be the user and what he or she may know?.
-
I think its more a lucky machine then even so much a lucky CPU .. But John is 100% right about it being alot on the user end.. patience does not hurt either
.
I can OC the living daylights out of my CPU in the M17 but in the M17x ... No...
Hopefully Dadah has more luck when he gets a Quadcore.. -
dondadah88 Notebook Nobel Laureate
me to. Me to. But i'm not giving up. I have some patient. I was hoping to get a better CPU before mandrake gets his unit (no offense lol) but oh well. Good luck.
-
Don have you talk with Dell in getting the 4870s? They may actually do a swap for you even if you pay some extra. Wouldn't hurt to ask.
-
dondadah88 Notebook Nobel Laureate
really. That's nice to hear alittle.
