zipper Posted November 19, 2005 Report Share Posted November 19, 2005 (edited) Got a new Amilo 4438 with go6800 - quite an improvement after go5700, even as the GPU seems shabby by clocking capabilities. Default 325/600 is locked with original drivers (found an unlocker already) but no issue as they are slow. And the same bios bug as with 3438 making drivers after 81.26 to crawl. Need guts to flash... But 3-6 times faster than 5700 is nice yet, and much less heat, not to talk lower noise :) (ed: flashed bios to .60, no problems; no slowdown anymore with 81.26+ drivers) (ed2: latest system bios flashed; same version, newer date) Driver|3DMark03|3DMark05|3DMark06 default clock 325/600 72.50.|..8648..|..3575..|......... - the default WHQL driver 81.26.|..9134..|..3801..| 81.89.|..8951..|..3706..| 81.94.|..9120..|..3791..| 81.95.|..9098..|..3814..|......... - std inf 81.95.|..8938..|..3699..|......... - perf - seems perf infs bench always worse for me 81.98.|..9089..|..3825..|......... - std 82.04.|..2719..|..1022..|......... - showing the bios/driver bug before flashing 82.04.|..9069..|..3816..|......... - sys+vid bios updated, no errors 82.10.|..9099..|..3819..|......... - std; stray hor. pixel lines 03 test1, 05 test3, occ. crash 05 82.10.|..8963..|..3714..|......... - perf; same errors 82.10.|..9107..|..3803..|......... - std; updated sys bios; errors remain 82.12.|..9096..|..3826..|..1810..| - std; no gfx errors 82.65.|..9082..|..3794..|......... - std 83.10.|..9093..|..3796..|......... - std 83.20.|..9075..|..3813..|..1836..| - eXtreme - G mobile v2 83.40.|..9110..|..3834..|..1853..| - std 83.60.|..9105..|..3827..|..1849..| - std 83.90.|..9140..|..3845..|..1850..| - std 83.90.|..8937..|..3729..|..1799..| - XG v2 default (perf) 83.90.|..9095..|..3838..|..1850..| - XG v2 my own (perf) settings 83.91.|..9102..|..3835..|..1854..| - std 84.12.|..9060..|..3830..|..1848..| - std 84.15.|..9091..|..3835..|..1854..| - std 84.19.|..........................| - BSOD during install 84.20.|..9075..|..3839..|..1852..| - std 84.21.|..9103..|..3843..|..1858..| - std 84.22.|..........................| - BSOD during boot, just before ready 84.25.|..9080..|..3827..|..1851..| - std 84.26.|..9084..|..3841..|..1852..| - std 84.29.|..........................| - BSOD during boot, just before ready 84.30.|..9085..|..3842..|..1852..| - std BSOD on the end of install, CP missing No OC 84.37.|..9070..|..3841..|..1850..| - std 84.43.|..9071..|..3835..|..1852..| - std no OC 84.56.|..9088..|..3834..|..1852..| - std 84.56.|..9104..|..3840..|..1852..| - std tweakerized 84.66.|..9071..|..3838..|..1849..| - std 87.08.|..9077..|..3827..|..1854..| - std 87.25.|..9067..|..3811..|..1853..| - std 87.25.|..9113..|..3837..|..1855..| - std tweakerized 91.28.|..9067..|..3833..|..1863..| - std 91.28.|..9087..|..3850..|..1862..| - std tweakerized 91.31.|..9085..|..3834..|..1859..| - std 91.31.|..9091..|..3848..|..1859..| - std tweakerized 91.33.|..9112..|..3852..|..1858..| - std 91.33.|..9124..|..3859..|..1864..| - std tweakerized 91.37.|..9088..|..3817..|..1858..| - std BSOD, partial install? 91.37.|..9077..|..3846..|..1860..| - XTreme-G mobile, tweakerized 91.45.|..9075..|..3847..|..1862..| - tweakerized; no CP, BSOD during install 91.47.|..9090..|..3854..|..1857..| - tweakerized 91.48.|..9075..|..3847..|..1857..| - std 91.48.|..9096..|..3839..|..1859..| - tweakerized 92.91.|..9104..|..3849..|..1861..| - std 92.91.|..9104..|..3850..|..1859..| - tweakerized 95.97.|..9075..|..3851..|..1867..| - tweakerized 96.89.|..9099..|..3851..|..1869..| 97.02.|..9073..|..3841..|..1865..| - std 97.28.|..9072..|..3844..|..1866..| - std 97.44.|..9068..|..3833..|..1864..| - std 97.73.|..9066..|..3840..|..1862..| - std 97.92.|..9065..|..3850..|..1865..| - std 97.92.|..9100..|..3856..|..1865..| - tweakerized 97.95.|..9064..|..3833..|..1864..| - std 158.19|..9080..|..3844..|..1864..| - tweakerized 163.16|..9013..|..3834..|..1865..| - std 163.67|..9037..|..3839..|..1863..| - std 163.69|..9019..|..3833..|..1870..| - std 163.71|..9044..|..3845..|..1871..| - std 163.74|..9009..|..3835..|..1871..| - std defragging =>9026 163.76|..9056..|..3837..|..1866..| - std 167.26|..9047..|..3975..|..1867..| - std 169.02|..9026..|..3910..|..1870..| - std 169.04|..9055..|..3903..|..1869..| - std 169.13|..9038..|..3925..|..1867..| - doesn't overclock! 169.17|..9046..|..3915..|..1870..| - doesn't overclock! 169.28|..9037..|..3901..|..1868..| - doesn't overclock! stable (?)overclock 353/621 81.26..|..9655..|..4075..| 362/618 81.98..|..9724..|..4165..| 362/621 83.40..|..9772..|..4185..|..2001..| tinkering with RivaTuner, check disabled 360/668 83.60..|.10001..|..4257..|..2032..| 83.90..|..9961..|..4245..|..2030..| - XG v2 84.21..|..9951..|..4245..|..2032..| 87.25..|..9994..|..4265..|..2036..| 91.28..|..9952..|..4265..|..2010..| 91.33..|..9997..|..4277..|..2045..| (not much point as slowdown/freeze after 5-10 mins may occur) (Best scores are in RED when more tested...) zipper LaptopVideo2Go_LogFile.txt FlashedLaptopVideo2Go_LogFile.txt SysBiosUpd_LaptopVideo2Go_LogFile.txt Edited January 10, 2008 by zipper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maier Posted November 19, 2005 Report Share Posted November 19, 2005 You could oc much more, I can do 375/675 easy. My max with optimal clockspeeds in the overclock page is 400/745 ( 3dmark05 ). I did it only ones because the temp was to high but i didnt had artifacts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zipper Posted November 19, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 19, 2005 361/634 is the most I could 81.26 to push - perhaps some other driver will allow more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Sire Posted January 4, 2006 Report Share Posted January 4, 2006 I got also one of these FSC 4438g, and im getting with the 81.98 driver without overclocking 3670 points in 3dmark05. So how did u get 3825, could u anyway send me the excel file of the 3dmark05 results of this if u still have it, so i see what i could be doing to improve my score. And if i overclock as you did, what kind of things should i take into consideration and is it really worth all the trouble,like does it freeze or something after 5 mins everytime?

No, I haven't saved the results :) Nothing special, just keeped other processes at minimum but virus protection was still running. The driver settings had been tweaked a little towards better performance from the default settings. I personally do not find that 5-6% better fps necessary what overclocking gives, at least now, at the expense of growing possibility of freezing. I'll buy better hardware if necessary but not so far. This Amilo seems not so suitable to overclocking; some other makes do it gracefully; my former Acer could happily clock the GPU memory from default 580 to 700+.

Do u know what kind of hardware is there available to update on this laptop, e.g. cpu or gpu?And what driver would u recommend that i would use to achieve the best possible performance and stability? Also i heard something bout a tweaking utility for 6800 gpu's that enable some special features such as enabling 16 pipelines only present in the more expensive models, and so giving bout 1000+ boost in 3dmark05 scores, do u know if the same utility could be aplied for our gpu? I think its the rivatuner which has been used to ebable 16 pipelines... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
