Dell XPS M1210 Undervolting Results

I got bored last night and decided to undervolt my Dell XPS M1210 laptop. My specs for the laptop are:

Intel Core Duo T2300E 1.66Ghz Processor
2048MB 533mhz DDR2 SDRAM (2x1GB Modules)
80GB 5400rpm Hard Drive
Geforce Go 7400 Turbochache
Don't think the other specs would matter too much.

I used NHC 2.0 Pre-Release 3 to undervolt my cpu. The final settings I obtained for it was:

6x .9500v
7x .9500v
8x .9500v
9x .9500v
10x .9750v

I could have gone lower with the 10x but decided I might need the extra volts.

To verify the stability, I ran Prime95's torture test on the blend option overnight without any errors. In the morning, I checked the temps for my laptop. They were:

CPU Temp - Peak = 49c -- Peak Temp Before Undervolt = 58c
GPU Temp - Peak = 52c -- Peak Temp Before Undervolt = Forgot
HDD Temp - Peak = 38c -- Peak Temp Before Undervolt = Also Forgot

Afterwards, I rebooted my laptop and ran PCMark05 System Suite Test. The System Suite results were 3501. According to:

http://www.hardware.info/en-US/productdb/bGNkaZiXmJTK/viewproduct/Dell_XPS_M1210_PP11S/

whose laptop had an upgraded CPU, the T2400 @ 1.83 GHz, and a higher RAM speed, their results were 3596. I decided my laptop was running accordingly.
To make sure, I ran the PCMark05 CPU test and obtained a score of 3752, which is almost 200 points higher than the laptop stated in the link. Through all of this, my CPU temp never went above 49c, compared to the old 58c.

My battery life did not improve much, since it always is at .9500v during battery mode (I believe). But overall, undervolting reduced my temp by 9c, which really was all that I expected. Hope you guys find this information useful and ask any questions you might have.

 

so NHC supports Core Duo now? SWEET!

 

yea, i think they started supporting duo cores a while ago
