    I'm thinking I wanna overclock this Skt 754 Turion 64 ML-34 since it's just barely able to playback 1080p at 1.8Ghz. It does an amazing job I must say it is way more powerful than my Pentium M 1.83Ghz laptop. It plays back smoothly 90% of the time and sometimes it lags and comes out of sync. The cpu usage is tacked out. I could pick up a ML-40 for $10 lol and it's 2.2Ghz so it's definetely worth it. If anyone can find a very cheap ML-44 please let me know. They run at 2.4Ghz. Just thought I'd see if I could pull 2.2Ghz for free and outperform the ML-40 because the HT clock and memory will be running at higher clocks. Again stability would be of concern. It's the clock generator 1412 can't remember the since I'm not using it atm. The laptop also has the ATI Radeon Xpress 200M dedicated 128MB gpu and it's not bad at all. I have it overclocked from 300Mhz to 390Mhz and it runs fine. Just curious of an over-volt bios flash to push for 450Mhz or so. Anyway later.

    I have an old AMD Turion somewhere in my room.b If I can find it, and you want it you can have it.

    I'll post back in 10.

    EDIT: It's an MT-32 same speed, but it runs much cooler(MT-32 24 watt vs ML-34 35 watt)

    In Passmark, my MT-32 is slightly faster:

    MS-32: 467
    ML-34: 445
    ML-37: 494

    If you want it, I can ship it to you for $4.95(small flat rate box).

    Also, an ML-37 is $25:

    Thanks I'll consider that. Ebay Turion's are ridonkulously expensive. Pricewatch has an ML-40 2.2Ghz for $10. How much better is the ML-40 than the ML-34?

    Thanks
