    How on earth did they get 4665? I can't read portuguese, but from what I gather, the specs are the same as my laptop (except I have 2 gigs of ram, not 1), yet I can only get around 4100 out of mine!

    Ah, that explains it.. I just used the clock speeds that it came out of the box with. Is it actually safe to leave it overclocked at those speeds all the time?

    When the LG S1 first came to Kuwait, me and a couple of friends of mine bought 3 together. We were very excited and didn't really know about "hyper memory", we just thought it had 512mb worth of dedicated memory. The first thing we did was install 3dmark05 and ran on each one of the three. The score varied from 3600 marks to 4300 marks. Mine was 4100 marks, so I didn't really care why there was a relivant gap between the three. My guess is that one was underclocked and one was overclocked.

    I see, Bobdare
    what's your experience w/ those laptops?
    and, the question that kensuke did, Is it actually safe to leave it overclocked at those speeds all the time?


    thanks.
