    I`m pretty shure that this means that 675M is 40nm. He couldn`t overclock the GPUs anymore than that if I understand the translation correctly. Click the pics to see bigger images

    EDIT: I`m confused. It say GPU 1211 on this GPU-Z but the other leaks we seen was 1212. And June 2011 hmmm

    That would depend on whether Nvidia wants to revise it, as they control the standard. PCI-E 3.0 is pretty useless on laptops though (for now) because there aren't any cards that need that bandwidth. Even on the desktop, only the highest end cards can hope to need that kind of bandwidth.

    no thats just an easy trik.....open and simply replace all "gtx 580m" in driver inf with "gtx 675m", or 999m whatever u like, and gpuz will read the name :D ;)

    1210=570m
    1211=580m
    1212=670m
    1213=675m

    Looks fishy to me.
    If that's the best a 675m can do I can sleep safe and sound with my 485m since at voltage I'm running 720/1850 24/7 with good temps.
    I really hope something changes because at this point there's no reason to upgrade.
    Probably the 680m will see the light in summer as already happened with 485m and 580m.

    On the first screenie CPU-Z shows 2760QM and GPU-Z Dell GTX675M in SLI, that means it runs in Alienware M18x.. no other laptop can't run both 2x100W GPU and SB CPU. Interesting) I like the clock bump though!

    The GTX 680 for desktop is rumored at a summer release, but the 680m is not based off the desktop named version, but then if the desktop version follow suit of mobile, then it can't be based on anything below the 680, if it's Kepler, so is it not gonna be base of a desktop version :O.

    I'm not sure what you're saying, but there's a 100% chance that the GTX 680M will be coming from the GTX 660 or GTX 660 Ti.

    No, it's running in the new 17" Clevo.

    Guys, what are you even talking about of course that was an Alienware with dual gtx580m with fake driver name. Even the top bar of the result window shows that...no need to go on about it, it was a very bad fake.
    The dual gpu 17inch Clevo with mobile chipset is still far away in Q4

    this might be a stupid question: can anyone identify the port next to HDMI on the back of the laptop? (and no, im not talking about DVI, the other one! :p) cant be e-sata, since they moved that one to the left side...

    There are some other changes.

    - No fingerprint reader
    - The eSATA/USB combo that was located at the back is moved to the left side and replaced with a DisplayPort.

    Thats's all I see that that is different but I could have missed something.

    thx prema, as i said: stupid question :p

    additional stuff:
    3 USB 3.0 ports + 1 USB 2.0 port instead of 2/2
    as far as i remember, not all P150HM laptops included a fingerprint reader, so it missing doesnt have to mean anything...
    they moved the windows button to the right KB side (more gamer-friendly?)

    thats it from me so far ^^

    Indeed, if you look closely you can see the original P150HM-barebone/shell has been remade into a little bit more slicker and rounder way.

    Oh no. Don't tell me that for the touchpad they've gone to either a rocker style button, or the single button with multi-touch gestures.

    Man, it's like Clevo always has to make one terrible design decision with each revision.

    I have no info, but if there's a P150EM, common sense says there's also a P170EM, right?

    There is definitely a P150EM and a P170EM, it's been in youtube for ages, though there was no technical information about them until recently.

    Chief River is the platform, Eagle is the chipset specifically. I know its a little odd but to intel Platforms and Chipsets are different.

    Damit, I do not like the single button mouse. Perhaps it will not be as bad as I fear, only time and usage will tell.

    The keyboard is non-chiclet, I guess it will bring better feeling when typing but easier to attract dust than the chiclet one.

    But:
    1. Why did Clevo move the Windows key to the right side? I think it's easier to operate when it's on the left (I use the windows key very often for hot key).
    2. The keyboard has the "| \" button next to the spacebar, it's better to eliminate the same key on top of Enter button and make the Enter button larger (inverted L type). I got many troubles when typing with small Enter button because I hit the wrong Enter button many times.

    Edit: I saw that the keyboard also lacks the right click button (usually between the Alt and Ctrl button on the right side).
