m1330 temp differences with 6 and 9 cell battery

just doing a bit of testing..
if im sitting, browsing the web plugged into AC
with 9 cell my temp is 44/45C
with 6 cell my temp is 36/78C

amazing how much of a difference having about an anch below the notebook makes, so it can suck in air!

ill run some more tests at load..and update this thread after i do!

 

6 cell battery just browsing etc here are temps:

47 47 47 55 2000 18% 3035 columns are colums: CPU-temp GPU-temp memory-temp chipset-temp speed load fan1speed

 

Good thread D94, r+

6cell battery, firefox+some other stuff, plugged into AC
45c

Are you using I8KFANGUI?

 

6 cell, laptop is on my bed.. no airflow to bottom. Temps in Celsius:

CPU: Core 1: 45/ Core 2: 47
GPU: 47
Memory: 46
Chipset: 54
Hard Drive: 36

Using I8kfangui

 

that i am

thanks..i figured this would be interesting to any 1330 owner, i know iv read about i before and it would only make sense, but the big question is just how big of a difference is it really!

right now im on my bed with very little airflow and the temp is at 47C..fan is silent ofcourse not bad @ all

tomarrow ill be running full load tests (CPU + GPU)

 

good stuff for M1330 or M1530 potential buyers to know... it's got to make a pretty big difference to have a clear path for airflow...

 

i gotta say..new penryn kicks ass
idle @ 27C, load @ 61c..unreal and thats w/the 6 cell

 

So this sounds like we should defenitelly get a T8xxx or T9xxx CPU when buying a new laptop? This sounds like a big advantage over the older T5xxx and T7xxx.

 

yep super huge advantage...not to mention more battery life, and faster chip all around

makes the t7300 feel like a p4

 

How much more battery life in both cases? I tried a non-LED screen M1330 version at a store (6 cells and fully charged) and, setting power saver mode and screen all the way down, I had a 5 hours estimate on vista... not bad.

Can someone tell me the maximum battery endurance when setting saver mode + lowest screen brightness?

Thanks d94, I'm sold for a Penryn in my next buy. I specced a Lenovo T61 with T9300 for 1400 CAD... tempting. Unfortunately, an M1330 with that comes at 1999 CAD at the moment : [

 

My m1330 runs at about 40-50C on AC. around 35-40C on Battery (since I limit the speed).
When I run the WEI, CPU temps can reach 60C.

Seems a bit hot for Penryn..

 

I want to know if anyone with the Penyrn processor feels that their machine is cooler to the touch, not just with processor temps? I asked before (different thread) but no one seemed to feel it was cooler to the touch. Much thanks, Yasmine
