Thin and Light 11-14 notebooks gaming worth compendium 2013 update

[Low Life]

The 'flickering' is being blown massively out of proportion - it's just a bit of typical pixel walk, and it's mostly confined to the top right of the display.

At least for me it's certainly not constrained to the top right corner - the entire right side from top to bottom (and I'd say about 1/6 of the display width) is having the problem and it's causing slightly (but noticeably) lower brightness in that area, too.

Anybody notice that PCHome has posted a second model of the U2442N? http://shopping.pchome.com.tw/DHAV0V-A65362574 This one has the SSD only (without the additional conventional hard drive) and sells for $1,113. PCHome is already discounting it. Still no thunderbolt model. It looks to me that these are in stock. Anybody read Taiwanese who can confirm it. My Google translate is giving me a limited translation.

Edit: Yes ... these are in stock. I had one in the check out basket.

U2442N user manual:

That's weird, the HD+ display is standard and the HD display is an option. I would still like to know what it's made of and how the display looks. The notebook looks great if only it is decently built.

DAMMIT! The day I get my S13P the U2442N comes out? Just my luck! But I just got my S13P so if anyone wants info or pics just PM me

Hi guys.

This may be abit out of topic.

Just want to share on the Sony S13P.

Manage to BIOS MOD + OC it from the stock clock 500MHz to 705MHz.
I didn't do the MOD, someone else did, credit goes to him.

Without the MOD, you can only OC(Afterburner, Precision, Nvidia Inspector, etc) it max up to 540MHz.
Unfortunately Boost doesn't work at all(probably locked) with this card.

Temperature did went up roughly about 6c.

Here is the scores :


NVIDIA GeForce GT 640M LE video card benchmark result - Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-3520M CPU @ 2.90GHz,Sony Corporation VAIO score: P1865 3DMarks

Scores about the same as the normal GT640M.

Could we see a link to that post then? I'd love to see what I can do to get the faps even higher for this.

It is actually mine.

Currently being a tester.

Someone else did the BIOS MOD for me.

Manage to increase it by bit to 735MHz, scored P1938

Currently still abit buggy, OC won't work.

Will share with everyone once it is near perfect or ok for normal use.
Might try higher clock after this.

WOW, there is a LOT of difference between the 640m LE and the 650m, not counting the one in the rmbp

Isn't it mostly just a matter of clock speeds on the cards? Not much difference after that?
