    While I agree, the issue is that scaling from a smaller to a larger resolution can look blurry. It looks best at native resolution.

    Sager NP9150 'Prometheus': 15.6" 1080p matte - i7-3740QM - GTX 680m - 16GB 1600 - 512GB+mSATA 256GB Crucial M4 - Blu-Ray
    Sager NP6110 'Firefly': 11.6" 768p matte - i7-3610QM - GT 650m - 8GB 1600 - 500GB Samsung 840

They do this because it fits on the screen, but imho, it only causes confusion. Here's my run at 1280x768 which matches up to Notebookcheck. Same thing goes for 3DMark Vantage.
    That's not true. Notebookcheck and Anandtech got 4000 in 3DMark Vantage using default 1280x1024 resolution:

    AnandTech - Mobile Ivy Bridge and ASUS N56VM Preview
    Intel HD Graphics 4000 - Notebookcheck.net Tech

    And it seems 1280x720 is default for 3DMark11. 3DMark06 is off but I'm dismissing that. Also your score isn't lower just in Cinebench, but 3DMark06/3DMark Vantage CPU and X264.

    I still think the Turbo not working is related to thermals/power. That's maybe why it works full with discrete card off.

    Edit: Regarding Turbo clocks, last year Intel was demoing what they called "Hybrid Power Boost", which uses energy from both the AC power adapter and battery to provide the power the system needs. Also, Notebookcheck's review has an update that(the link is in that big 100+ page thread for Sager W110ER you mentioned) said that the Turbo for the CPU is off so GPU can boost.

    Not sure how it could be related to thermals/power when the GPU isn't even being taxed during CPU testing. Prime95 the CPU boosts to fixed 3.1 GHz with dGPU on or off. In BF3 the CPU boosts, and is one of the more demanding CPU and GPU games out there.

    There is something going on, just not sure exactly what is influencing what or how or why.

    And now the 7660G is even better posting 2-5% better benches. It feels bad to know that your dedicated GPU is getting raped by an integrated chip.

    The N51VN-A1:
    T9600|GT 240m@330m|4GB DDR2|64GB + 320GB@7200 / 22"@1080p
    3Dmark06 6224
    Pcmark Vantage 6674
    3Dmark Vantage P2498
    Next Notebook:
    8+ cores at 4+ GHZ | 5120+ shader ATI GPU | Quad SSD's. 3Dmark11E ~12000 PCMark 7D ~14000 Crysis 3.5 at 61fps
    (unless the cloud destroys the PC market)

    haha that combination doesn't make much sense. I guess if it has mxm there are options...

    HD 6470M supports Eyefinity and can run more displays at once. Useful in a business environment where power isn't everything but being able to run 4x FullHD displays is.

    Hopefully now Intel can get rid of there horrible 'Atom' platform.

    If a Netbook had HD5000 graphics I'd certainly get one.

    It has to happen.

    Actually, maybe they'll just move Atom down next to the cell phone level?
