    Hi all,

    Does my X200-1AA (Portuguese model) really come with Intel Turbo Memory?
    I read somewhere that the robson package driver was incompatible with this chipset.
    Also, I can't seem to find the memory unit anywhere in control panel, device manager...

    Regards,
    Andre

    I don't think any X200/X205's come with Turbo Memory. My laptop, the fastest one Toshiba has made, doesn't have it or the PCIe slot for it either.

    But the guys at Toshiba tech support in Portugal confirmed me that the X200 comes with 1Gb Intel Turbo Memory module.
    Also, in the drivers section for my computer, there is the driver for the Robson Package for download.

    My S9349 laptop did have the turbo cache but my sli1 did not have it or the slot for it. I think none of the sli models have it but the non sli models might have it.

    Exactly Jesse, the Sli versions of the x200/205 series don't have the TurboMemory, but the single Gpu models do have it...

    I'm sorry, but my X200-1AA has a single GPU (NVIDIA 8700M GT) and doesn't seem to have Intel Turbo Memory.
    How can I be sure it has or it hasn't got the Intel Turbo Memory module?

    regards,
    Andre Antunes

    Do you run Windows Vista ?
    then go to Intel and download the Turbo memory driver and install it and start the program .......
