Just noticed it today. Forgive me if its old news. Anyone care to give it a try?

Yes they have been there for a while now and I think it's just a desktop 3200 turned into a mobile seeing is it take's 1.65 volt's I would get the 2500M or 2600M over this.

was just about to ask a question similar to this.

just noticed that the voltage is at 1.65, so would i be better with 2500 or 2600 Mobile?

or does it not make much differnce?

Well with the 2500 or 2600, you have a much lower "stock" operating voltage.

This allows for far more "headroom" when it comes to overclocking.

Plus I'm willing to bet 2500s and 2600s will be cheaper, as well as better overclockers.

plus I'd pay 95 for a 2600 over 143 anyday

 

[Michael_antoi]

i probably should phrase my questions better.

I meant would a 2500 be a better oc'er than a 2600?

or would they both be just as good as each other.?

If this is the case i'd probably go for the 2600...

Well the 3000 default speed is 2.2ghz compared to 1.9/1.8 on the 2500/2600, i think the 3000-M could go higher in terms of clocks

 

[dicecca112]

the current batch of 2600s from newegg are doing 2.4-2.7 on air

 

[Michael_antoi]

so many different steppings are good...i dont know which one to get. Could anyone reccomend any?

And also if you know any steppings to avoid then that would be nice too.

thnx

well it depends were you are ordering from, the only place that guarentees steppings is excaliburpc.com. It's the luck of the draw pretty much everywere else. Take a look at the mobile result thread http://www.ocforums.com/showthread.php?t=271103&highlight=mobile+result and that can tell you what steppings with what cooling and what hardware got what result
