    I did some D900F picture search in Google, and I think it doesn't look too bad after all... so I will probably get it. I mean, it sure is thick and heavy, but I'm so intrigued with all that power ;)

    I hope a night's sleep will help me make my mind up...heheheeh

    If I do get it I'll post my scores...

    That's what I thought, it doesn't look *that* bad, but then I got out the measuring tape and compared it to my current laptop. Over an inch thicker, I just can't deal with that, especially since it has those little feet it sits on as well. To high up, and too chunky, but if you can handle that, it's a beast of machine power wise. Hands down the most powerful laptop on the planet right now.

    Core i7-820QM, 1.73 GHz with 8 total "cores" running
    High performance on battery (not plugged)
    8 GB DDR3 RAM
    Windows 7 Pro x64

    And how the heck did an i7-720QM beat my 820QM?

    Ok, I'm about to test my new T8100. Going to test it at 2.75ghz.
    Wish me luck (not sure if this CPU is going to make it that far).

    Turns out my T8100 is a great overclocker. The voltage is a bit low. Unlike my t7300.

    Anyway, results:

    moral hazard - 6.20/ 2978 - T8100 2.1GHZ
    moral hazard - 7.78 / 3736 - T8100 OC 2.62GHZ 250mhz FSB

    I wish I had more voltage, could probably get 2.8ghz.
    Though the T8100 does run a lot cooler than the T7300.


    EDIT: Do you think I should bench my T5250, lol :D

    See, there you go. Above BrandonSi's 720QM, although short of SUADE8880's... maybe you have some extra background processes running?

    Yes, I imagine that's the case. I bet if he closed everything out, browser, background processes, etc, he'd be up there with Suade.

    Actually not really any background processes. I could of course boot into safe mode and try it.

    I think the test is a bit dependent on the video card too, so that might explain the differences.

    Video card should make no difference, we're just dealing with positional analysis on a chess board, and obviously there's no graphics involved at all in the benchmark.

    Also posted this in http://forum.notebookreview.com/showthread.php?p=5623283#post5623283


    Not sure why the different results, I have Deep Fritz 11, ran the Benchmark (Lists for 8 Processors) using Windows 7 64 Bit Home Premium and got the following;

    13.17 / 6323 kN/s

    Full Spec in Sig below


    As a comparison my Desktop runs a Q6600 overclocked to 2.95Ghz, 8GB PC 800 DC DDR2 RAM, Windows 7 Professional 64 Bit scores;

    16.17 / 7763 kN/s

    Interesting Snarl.. I have Deep Fritz 11 and Fritz 12 as well, however I've always used the stand-alone benchmark utility, not the built in one. I'm curious if there's a difference..

    Would you mind running the stand-alone benchmark and posting a screen shot? It's not that I don't believe you (I do!) it's just that your score is a bit high for the the 720QM. I'll still add your scores though.. no worries!

    BrandonSI, I'm not sure If I can post Screenies but I'll give it a try. I used the built in Benchmark with my copy of Deep Fritz 11, I missed the fact that there's a stand alone bench mark utility (sorry I should have caught that) so I'll download as you indicated and re-run test. Out of curiosity do your results match between the Built in Utility and the stand alone one ?

    Also as an FYI my M15x is new (2 Weeks) and I have not changed any basic settings i.e. Clocks etc.. it's all stock with the exception of the AntiVirus, I installed Kaspersky Stand alone AV (Protection Paused during benchmark) and removed Mcafee's Suite. I'm using Windows Firewall and Defender with Kaspersky's.

    BrandonSI, I have downloaded the Stand Alone Benchmark from the Link you provided and re-run twice score as follows;

    Stand Alone Fritz Benchmark
    13.06 / 6270
    13.14 / 6306


    Built in Deep Fritz Benchmark
    13.18 / 6327
    13.24 / 6353

    I have used Snipping Tool to capture the 4 Screen Shots, PM me with your E-mail and I'll E-mail them to you, file sizes are 35 to 71 KB Each so not very big.

    Thanks Snarl! I hadn't compared the two, actually, I've always just run the stand-alone benchmark! I appreciate the screen-shots, but I think your consistent results are good enough. If you want to share them, you can just add a new post and put them as an attachment on your post, but I don't need them for any specific reason. I'll add your highest score to the list, thanks again for all the help!

    Just out of curiosity, are you running XP?

    Interesting! I believe this is a limitation of the crippled Virtual PC technology which is behind "XP Mode". You could try setting processor affinity and see if you can select multiple cores to run XP Mode under, but I'm not sure it will work.

    If you used VMWare (and I believe, even the latest version of Virtual PC), you will have the option to choose how many cores to allocate to a VM.

    Your T8100 has a higher stock voltage then myne. That's strange. I guess it's because you have an ES.
