Is the Core 2 Duo T8300 better than the Core 2 Duo T7600G??? I chatted with a tech and he said it was faster because of the 800mhz and 45nm. Should I contact customer service to have them build me another replacement?

View 10 Replies View RelatedSome time ago I've bought Inspiron 1525 with T5250 CPU. It was performing well, except for any 3D gaming due to X3100 integrated video (the person who uses it doesn't play much, but still...).
So to make it handle at least simple games I've decided to upgrade CPU and purchased T8300 ES (QZOL) from eBay, this CPU is the same as normal T8300 but with twice as much cache. I would've purchased normal one, but it was cheaper from auction.
Yesterday I've installed it and I must say it works good, with a small utility I switched some games vertex processing to software and they're at least playable now .....
Today i upgraded my dv6500t again. This time i put in an OEM t8300. After putting it in the bios reads it and it runs fine ( Im on it right now ). Anyways i will be using it and it idle's nicely at 40*C to 50*C but randomly it will jump to 83*C for core 1 and 97*C for core 2 the fans will spin full speed then it will drop down right back to normal. Anyone have any idea i am running the most up to date bios F.59.

Is there any vendor where I can get one? or is dell the only place that you can get it?
My Friend has an m1710 could I get him to call dell and ask for an upgrade?
then they can give it to him for me?
or can I just call dell spare parts or some such and order it?
is the XPS 1710 with a T7600G able to "address" all 4gb with Vista64bit?
View 12 Replies View Relatedi bought a T7600G for my m90 from second Hand (..from firestarter, also activ in this Forum..). It originally comes from IT-Premier, a shop you already know, like I saw...
Now - the prob is, that the Bios don't let me overclock my lovely G! I'm sure, it is possible, because IT-Premier sells a m90 with 7600G. I've already ask him for his modified Bios (if exist..) but even no answer..
i bought it b/c of the t7600g processor & b/c i prefer the m1710 over the m1730 looks wise
it is pretty dinged up, even for a scratch and dent and the bluray drive that came w/ the system works sometimes but then media direct cannot detect an optical device - does media direct 3.0 not work w/ bluray?
it came w/ a 1 year warranty, i could not bite the bullet to pay 220 for an extended warranty for years 2 and 3 - does anyone have any experience for extending warranty over the phone for cheaper than 220?
A friend of mine works for intel in devolopment. So I been talking to him latly about the t7600 vs the t7600G . He basically said intel does not make a t7600G there is no such thing, he looked into it with a few of the other engineers. So this is what Im guessing, dell does something VERY simple to the t7600 that allows it to set a flag so the bios can detect it as a factory option and allow the overclock . . .So this is what im doing. Im bored until school starts up again (im a engineering student starting my masters in the fall) , I have access to a nems lab and engineering lab for 2 weeks before school starts. Im going to order a t7600 off ebay or here and ask my buddy to bring in his xps t7600G. Im going to test the pin outs in the lab and look for changes.
It must be a very small change and something simple that they do to allow it to throw a flag. So hopefully with a manual of pinouts I can test the i/o, resistance, etc and find the change.
do any software programs (notebook hardware control comes to mind) recognize your additional multiplers? Say if you boot up from bios with it set to 2.33ghz, does nhc automatically recognize the additional multipliers allowing control to 3ghz+ etc?
The reason I'm wondering is that if it does, it may be the case that even without bios support the t7600G may be able to be overclocked on 1705s (I don't believe anyone has modded the 1710 bios to work in the 1705s, right?) ... although the utility may be small because t7600gs are only available through dell right...just some pondering
I have a dell xps m1710 that has the unlocked t7600g. what is the best way to cool this processor if i have overclock it to 3.16 or to any setting over the stock 2.33?
View 10 Replies View RelatedI just got my new laptop and the invoice says that it's a T7600. When I look into the system properties it show a 2.33 Ghz T7600.
But when I go into my BIOS, it has an adjustment to overclock my processor. I overclocked it to 2.83 Ghz and according to my I8KFangui and my system properties it is showing it running @ 2.83 Ghz.
So does this mean that I actually have the T7600G, or does it mean that I have the T7600 an I am going to screw it up by overclocking it!
Is it normal that dell.ca would have fewer choices of screens than dell.com? I'm looking at the studio 15, and dell.com lists Hi Resolution/Bright,
glossy widescreen 15.4 WLED display (1440x900) as a choice, which is what I want, but dell.ca doesn't. When I view the system specs though, that choice is listed as on option.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a Dell Inspiron N5010 purchased about 2 and a half years ago. I was just deleting some random programs which I don't ever use, and accidentally clicked on uninstall Dell Data Safe Local Back up.
How to reinstall it? I tried to do so by clicking this link [URL] .... but it just came up with an error message.
my laptop vostro 3460 won't boot any more. When I turn it on it loads the Dell logo (I suppose it passes the POST) but then it just shows a black page. It could be anything, but I guess that it may have something to do with Windows 8 and the UEFI system. I also would be quite happy to install linux mint and get rid of Windows, but I don't know how to change the boot priority order.
So my questions are:
1 is it a hardware issue ? if not, can I solve my problem easily ?
2 how can I change the boot priority order, to install mint ?

View 9 Replies View RelatedDell Inspiron 6000 notebook to boot up and stay unfrozen long enough for me to retrieve my files, and put them on my tower pc.
In a nutshell, I got this Inspiron about 3 years ago- I currently have it connected to an external monitor, because my wife dropped a heavy object on the screen last year, and destroyed said screen.
Just this past week, I turned it on, and it started getting really slow. Finally, it got to a point where now, when I turn it on, it boots up, it goes to the desktop, the desktop icons all appear, and within a minute or two, it just kind of slows down, and eventually freezes up, and the hard drive indicator light quits doing anything. It does not respond to anything, and the only way to restart it, is to hold the power button down until it resets.
If anybody knows of a thread already on this site, regarding this problem, please point me in the right direction, as I tried the search function, and did not come up with anything.
and one or two other things, since it initially started having problems, sometimes, I will get two "missing module" error boxes pop up- and also, while it is booting, the screen flashes black for about 3 seconds, and then comes back on and continues to load.
Thank you very much to anybody who could possibly help me out of this jam. I really do not plan on using this laptop (or notebook) anymore, if and hopefully when, I get my files off of it.
And that is the other problem, I can not attempt to boot up in safe mode, as my screen is busted up, and it will not output to my external monitor, when I hit the f key while it is starting. I did make a couple different bootable cds, but they do not seem to do anything.
I enjoy gaming, although I wouldn't consider myself a "hardcore" gamer. I currently have 1024 MB of RAM (2 x 512) and I am looking to upgrade soon. My options are as follows:
- Dell certfied RAM
- PNY RAM
- Kingston RAM
- Corsair RAM
Of course, for the Dell RAM, I have to wait for the shipping, but it is one of the cheaper ones. However, any of the other three I can pick up at Best Buy (which is more convenient). Can someone point out the pros and cons of each? It seems the PNY is a great buy, but could there be performance problems compared to the others? And why is the Kingston so expensive?
