As soon as my new PC is built, I will put the program on my laptop for 24hr's.
Don't get me wrong, I like any and all but this app makes laptops run real hot.. I had a laptop here I was working on, a yonah, and tried WCG on it.. furnace coming out of the bottom until I lifted it up onto some sticks to get air under it.Quote:

You need to get yourself introduced to a neat little program called RMclock.. I have been using that on Pentium M and Core based laptops for ages, really does wonders. It allows you to reduce the CPU's Vcore, thus allowing to run undervolted, same speed at immensely reduced heat output. Depending on the CPU, you can get as much as 50-60% lower temps and power drain even though the CPU is still running at full blast.Quote:

It runs a T2300 Yonah (1,83Ghz/FSB166/2MB), stock Vcore on that one is 1,26V, but the CPU still runs prime stable at 0,975V. Power drain from the wall @ stock Vcore is 26W --> makes one hell of a difference :up:
43Cs fully loaded at my HP8510W right now. It's not even noisy :)Quote:

It will happen. When I don't know but it will and that day will be a great day for mankind my friends.
I don't need or want glory or my name in the papers. I just want to see the next generation devoid of these diseases.
Seeing kids in a cancer ward with bald heads from chemo and the optimism on their faces can tear out your heart.
It does to me and thats why I'm so into this.
That and the memories of my grandmother slowly dying of cancer back in the 1960's.
Makes you feel impotent not being able to help them.
This way we can.
Sorry for the rant but every once in a while I feel the need to say what I feel.
