    This is a double post. I was able to get the M6500 to throttle down to 11x when the GPU hit 90c. As soon as the GPU cooled down the speed went back to 15x. The conditions that it took to get it throttle were way beyond real world. The GPU clocks did not change.

    Just remember that I am a new to throttle investigating. I could have done something wrong. I have a screen shot that I took after 45 minutes without a throttle, so maybe the process of getting that shot messed something up. Who knows...

    Update - it may not have been a throttle. CPU-Z has some known issues with throttle detection.

    I placed my order on the 30/12/2009 with an expected delivery of 28/01/2010 -only to find out today that Dell cancelled my order because of an upgrade with Norton Antivirus from 2009 to 2010 (I dont even need the antivirus -I have my own) -I had to rebook the whole order! -just wish they emailed me before hand and asked!!

    The rep said that I would get it by the 25/10/2010 -but I get a feeling that Dell are trying to pull the wool over my eyes -and that really I may have to almost another month to get it!

    Anyone else experience this before ?
