Can you run a GPU-z for M6100?

I think people are interest if this is new chip.

7970m is 1280 @ 850MHz
and m6100 is 768 @ 1075? according to amd.

 

The tool hangs at 13% CPU. Waited a few minutes but it did not change.

hwinfo64 does only show the intel GPU, no matter if I set it to high performance in the switcher app.

Will retest tomorrow when I am back with the power brick in the office if it just does not work because I am running on battery.

 

No change on AC adapter: gpu-z hangs and hwinfo64 does not see the firepro.

 

That is actually interesting, consider those 2 piece of software have no data of the card.

 

IIRC before I installed the ATI driver from Dell the card was named Radeon 8950.

 

Hi! Hopefully I didn't just miss this, but how many people are planning (or have) upgraded manually to SSD - I am specifically thinking the Crucial M500 960GB SSD, which is higher that Dell offers in configuration, but Crucial does list it as compatible. You can get that for about the same price as upgrading to the 512 SSD on the m4800

 

Crucial probably hasn't updated everything in their database for this new model yet. Any regular SATA SSD should work fine.

 

I have the 960 sitting here, waiting for the M6800. It will be used as the #2 drive. I also have an mSATA 480 on order, waiting for Crucial to find some more to ship :/ That will be the primary OS drive.

I'm planning on using the 750gb hard drive for additional storage and backups, as the #3 drive. Bought the caddy, to replace the DVD, from NewModeUS - they make pretty good stuff. Since that one isn't easily removed (like the m4400 was), I'm not sure how I'm going to use it...

 

These two will be my final drives (until they wear out, that is), once my budget recycles.

 

I heard this was because they had an earlier revision of the bios, but maybe someone who actually has one updated to the latest bios can chime in?

I am surprised that we do not have an "official M4800 owner's thread" yet.
