    I've just got my 8540p and I am looking for some undervolting tool for the Core i7-620M procesor and also some underclocking tool for the nVidia NVS 5100M. Has anybody tried some program yet?

    Underclocking the GPU makes very little difference in terms of decreasing power consumption since it automatically downclocks.

    When did you order? How long did it take to arrive? I haven't bothered with one since I thought they still had shipping delays.

    Could you do a little review, some pics and some benchmarking?
    Would be very much appreciated!
