Envy 14 1100 series GPU clocked any higher?

Anyone out there have the new Envy 14 1110 with the 460m? Wondering if they tweaked the GPU speeds at all in these new ones or if they still ship at 450/800. Thanks.


On a side note, I thought someone posted somewhere in that there GPU was getting at 1 V of juice instead of the usual 0.9 V. How do you find this out?

 

See this thread which is linked on the first post of the owner's lounge:

Got the software, thanks.

So anyone with the 1100 series envy 14, any different clock/memory speeds or voltage?

Here's the software for anyone else who wants it...

I would also like to know...

 

I doubt that hp would use a new gpu chip instead of keeping the same one.

I would be pretty mad if that happened though.

 

Well right now i have one on order but the stupid bank declined the order for security reasons so right now im in banking limbo but hp guaranteed me the same computer which is the hp envy 14 beats edition with core i5 460m proc
so we will see what happens

 

Well, I hope your bank gets things sorted out soon.

We'd appreciate it if you'd post back with more info once you get your notebook in.

 

Regarding the 14-1100, according to specs on the HP Germany website its 160grams (0.35 pounds) heavier than the 14-1000.

 

They did install a bigger HDD and more ram on the 1100series right? Not sure if that would justify 160grams though.

 

Yea, I don't think they would change the chip, just speed it up a little bit. All these gpu's could easily be clocked at 500/900 with the same 0.9 V no problem.

I have my doubts they'll ever do this in the 14 though, probably to worried about heat. Although my gpu actually runs cooler overclocked (on the same game settings) since it doesn't quite have to work at 100% load all the time now. Which makes since because really only increasing the voltage should raise the temps.

 

Overclocking GPUs generally results in increased temps. Especially with Nvidia GPUs. Though I haven't read anywhere where this would be different with ATI GPUs. Perhaps the small overclock might result in nominally unchanged or slightly cooler temps on your GPU.

 

Yea, from what I noticed that what it looks like. The other factor I just thought of is DX9 seems to produce much higher temps than DX10/11
