Can I use "Better Battery Mode(9400M)" using apple's Boot Camp?

Apple's hybrid graphics technology is supported under the MacOS X operating system version 10.5.5 and higher only. When running Microsoft's Windows XP™ or Microsoft's Windows Vista™ using Apple's Boot Camp, the system locks into higher performance mode which uses the Geforce 9600M GT discrete GPU for all graphics related tasks and can not be changed to use the Geforce 9400M motherboard GPU for battery life mode.

MacBook: How to install memory

MacBook (13-inch, Aluminum, Late 2008) computer has two memory slots that you access by removing the access door, battery, and bottom case. Your MacBook comes with at least 2 GB (1 GB in each slot) of 1066 MHz Double Date Rate (DDR3) Synchronous Dynamic Random-Access Memory (SDRAM) installed.

Both memory slots can accept an SDRAM module that meets the following specifications:

Double Data Rate Small Outline Dual Inline Memory Module (DDR SO-DIMM) format
1.25 inch or smaller (3.18 cm)
1 Gigabyte (GB) or 2 Gigabyte (GB)
200-pin
PC3-8500 DDR3 1066 MHz Type RAM
Depending on the configuration of the MacBook (13-inch, Aluminum, Late 2008) you purchased, both memory slots may already be full. The maximum amount of memory you can install in your MacBook (13-inch, Aluminum, Late 2008) is 4 GB (using 2 GB DIMMs in both memory slots).

Note: For best performance, fill both memory slots, installing an equal memory module in each slot.


Step 1: Before you begin
Shut down your MacBook. Disconnect the power adapter, Ethernet cable, and any other cords connected to the MacBook, in order to prevent damaging the computer.
Turn the computer over.
Review and follow MacBook: How to remove or install the battery to remove the battery.
Step 2: Remove the bottom case

Remove the eight (8) screws that secure the bottom case of your MacBook, and then remove the bottom case.
Because the screws are different lengths, note the screw lengths and locations so you can replace the screws correctly. Put them aside in a safe place.



When you remove the bottom case, you expose sensitive internal components. Avoid touching anything other than the memory assembly when you remove and replace memory.
Touch a metal surface inside the computer to discharge any static electricity from your body.


Step 3: Removing the original memory

Push the ejection levers on the sides of the memory module in an outward direction to release the module from the memory card slot.
The memory pops up at an angle. Before removing it, make sure you see the half-circle notches. If you don’t, try pressing the ejection levers outward again.

Hold the memory module by its notches, do not touch the gold connectors, and remove it from the slot.
Step 4: Installing the new memory

Align the notch on the gold edge of the module with the notch in the lower memory slot.
Tilt the card and push the memory into the slot.
Use two fingers with firm, even pressure to push down on the memory module. You should hear a click when the memory is inserted correctly.
Repeat to install an additional memory module in the top slot. Press down on the module to make sure it is level.


Step 5: Replace the bottom case

Replace the bottom case. Replace and tighten the eight screws, making sure to put the different length screws in their proper locations.

60W MagSafe power adapter with cable management system
Build and Design

The new "unibody" construction of the MacBook for late 2008 makes this MacBook one of the most impressively built 13-inch notebooks we've seen in recent memory. When you pick this notebook up it feels like you're holding a solid piece of metal. In a manner of speaking, you are. The unibody chassis is milled from a solid block of aluminum, making the MacBook one of the most durable 13-inch notebooks you can buy for less than $2,000. A thickness of less than an inch and a weight of roughly 4.5 pounds likewise help to make this update to the MacBook line a compelling choice for students and road warriors.

Bottom line, despite the impressive thinness of the design, the MacBook is quite solid and durable thanks to the aluminum construction. We don't recommend dropping the MacBook (or any notebook for that matter) but the MacBook should survive any use and abuse that a college student or corporate road warrior can deliver over several years of travel between home and school or home and work.




The MacBook lid does not have a latch to hold it closed, but the hinge mechanism works well and firmly holds the lid in place. While we're on the topic of the hinge, Apple made the strange choice of using black plastic around the hinge rather than brushed aluminum like the rest of a the chassis design. This isn't a major problem, but it looks a little odd and plastic doesn't give the same impression of durability as aluminum. On the bright side there is almost no flex to the screen thanks to the metal lid.



Performance and Benchmarks

The MacBook has reasonable performance based on the 2.0GHz Intel Core 2 Duo P7350 processor. The P7350 isn't the most impressive Core 2 Duo processor in the Intel lineup, but it certainly performs much better than the processors used in the Apple MacBook Air. The XBench benchmarks indicate that the new MacBook is a solid update in Apple's current lineup. As you'll see in chart below, the MacBook has a solid performance boost over previous generation MacBooks. The startup into Leopard is quite fast, and it's clear that Apple didn't have to sacrifice processor speed in order to bring this thin unibody laptop to consumers.

The Nvidia GeForce 9400M graphics should provide adequate performance for most games and won't have any trouble with high-definition video output to an external monitor. That said, this isn't a gaming notebook and won't break any records with current 3D games.

The 160GB Toshiba hard drive in the MacBook provides a reasonable amount of storage and performance. The 5400rpm 2.5" hard drive is relatively average for notebooks in 2008. However, since the MacBook is more expensive than your "average" notebook we would have liked to see a faster 7200rpm hard drive at the $1,299 price tag.

You can also configure that MacBook with a 2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo P8600 processor (a modest performance increase) and a larger 250GB or 320GB hard drive ... or a much faster 128GB SSD. Unfortunately, the faster processor and faster drive increase the price of the MacBook to between $1,599 and $2,199.

With the basics out of the way, let's jump into the performance benchmarks.

XBench is a comprehensive benchmarking solution for Mac OS X commonly used to compare the relative speeds of two different Macintoshes.

XBench 1.3 summary results:

Model Overall Score

MacBook 2008 (2.0GHz Intel Core 2 Duo) 126.23
MacBook Air (1.6GHz Intel Core 2 Duo) 50.76
Mac Mini (1.83GHz Intel Core 2 Duo)
94.58
MacBook (2.0GHz Intel Core 2 Duo) 95.89
MacBook Pro (2.2GHz Intel Core 2 Duo) 106.05
PowerBook G3 Pismo (500MHz G3) 18.47



wPrime is a program that forces the processor to do recursive mathematical calculations, the advantage of this program is that it is multi-threaded and can use both processor cores at once, thereby giving more accurate benchmarking measurements than Super Pi. (Lower scores indicate better performance.)

Audio

The built-in stereo speakers in the MacBook are surprisingly impressive. After the downright horrid performance of the monospeaker in the MacBook Air, we expected the speakers in the MacBook to be underwhelming. Fortunately, the speakers in the new MacBook produce distortion-free sound at reasonably loud volume levels with excellent highs and midtones. The bass is rather lacking, but that's not a big surprise in notebooks that don't have a dedicated subwoofer. In short, the MacBook has reasonable audio performance for a notebook in this class.

The audio out port (headphone minijack) provides excellent audio output. There's little or no distortion or static and the sound on my earbuds was quite enjoyable.

Battery

The MacBook uses an integrated 45-watt-hour lithium-polymer battery. The lithium-polymer technology should have a longer lifespan than standard lithium-ion batteries found in most notebooks. Unfortunately, there is no higher capacity battery available from Apple.

Apple claims that the battery inside the MacBook provides "5 hours of wireless productivity." Our real-world tests suggest that estimate is very accurate. With the MacBook's power management set to maximize battery life and a 100 percent charge the battery life ended up coming to 4 hours and 47 minutes with the display switching between maximum and minimum brightness and wireless on.

Heat and Noise

One downside to an all-aluminum design is the entire notebook acts as one gigantic heatsink. In the case of the MacBook, we expected the machine to run extremely hot when under stress. Thankfully, our tests show that the MacBook manages heat quite well. Even after running multiple benchmarks the MacBook the temperatures remained at perfectly acceptable levels. Below are temperature readings listed in degrees Fahrenheit.

There really isn't much point in mentioning "noise" when it comes to the new MacBook because this notebook is extremely quiet. I overlooked the cooling fan in the initial teardown because I never heard it running during benchmarks. This thing is very quiet.

Conclusion

You'll have a hard time finding anyone in the United States today who hasn't heard the phrases, "I'm a Mac" and "I'm a PC." Apple heavily invested in both design and advertising around that design over the last decade. Those investments have clearly paid off, but is the new MacBook really as impressive as Apple wants you to believe? Well, the answer depends on your answer to this question: Are you a Mac, or are you a PC?

The lack of ports and overly glossy screen make the MacBook a less than compelling option for students and road warriors. On the other hand, if you specifically need a "Mac" the new MacBook is an excellent value.

Bottom line, if you need a Mac laptop for less than $1,500 then the new MacBook makes a good choice. However, if you're just looking for a high-performance, portable notebook with rugged build quality I suggest you consider an HP EliteBook 2530p ... which retails for just a little more than the MacBook but is a far superior notebook.

Pros:

Slick design
Cool touchpad
Durable build quality
So quiet it seems like it has fanless cooling
It's a Mac

Cons:

No Firewire ports
No standard video out ports
No eSATA port
All the ports are located on one side
Flat keyboard keys
13-inch mirror masquerading as a display
It's a Mac

2.53GHz vs 2.8GHz MacBook Pro

http://www.barefeats.com/mbpp09.html

15" 알루미늄 MacBook Pro 와 13" MacBook 2.4GHz. 의 3D 게임 성능 비교 차트 입니다.









15" 알루미늄 MacBook Pro 와 13" MacBook 2.4GHz. 의 3D 게임 성능 비교 차트 입니다.

LEGEND of Graphs
MP 3.2 G8800T = Mac Pro 3.2GHz "Octo-Core" with GeForce 8800 GT
iMac 3.06 G8800S = iMac 3.06GHz Core 2 Duo with GeForce 8800 GS
MBP 2.8 G9600M = MacBook Pro 2.8GHz Core 2 Duo with GeForce 9600M GT
MBP 2.53 G9600M = MacBook Pro 2.53GHz Core 2 Duo with GeForce 9600M GT
MBP 2.6 G8600M = MacBook Pro 2.6GHz Core 2 Duo with GeForce 8600M GT
MB 2.4 G9400M = MacBook (13") 2.4GHz Core 2 Duo with integrated GeForce 9400M

In the graphs, we noted the fastest MacBook Pro in RED. The iMac and Mac Pro tested are faster than any Mac laptop but we marked them in WHITE since they are a different kind of "beast." Games used for testing include...
ETQW = Aspyr Enemy Territory: Quake Wars (v1.5) using our recorded timedemo.
Quake 4 = Aspyr Quake 4 (v 1.42) using "id_perftest" nettimedemo
Halo UB = MacSoft Halo UB 2.03 with all settings at the highest except lens flare.
WoW = Blizzard World of Warcraft 3.03; All sliders at max except Shadow Quality with Multisampling set to 1x. We used our infamous "Narache Warrior run from Totem to Tree" benchmark that stresses the GPU.
Prey = Aspyr Prey using a timedemo file from Overclockers Australia


Most owners of 15" MacBook Pros will prefer, however, to run 3D Games in the native resolution of 1440x900. So here are those results for the three 'late 08' MacBook Pros:

INSIGHTS
The fastest "late 2008" MacBook Pro* (2.8GHz) is about 20% faster than its fastest predecessor ("early 2008" MBP 2.6GHz) when it comes to 3D accelerated Game benchmarks. However don't expect it to be faster than the fastest iMac or Mac Pro with roughly comparable graphics processors. A fast laptop Mac is not the equal of a fast desktop Mac. Unless portability is required, hard core gamers (and professional 3D modelers) will want a Mac Pro with the fastest GPU option they can afford.

Some of you are debating whether the 2.8GHz MBP is worth $300 more than a comparably equipped 2.53GHz MBP. That is a 12% delta in price. That syncs with CPU intensive apps which average 11% faster, but when it comes to 3D games, the 2.8's advantage ranges from 0% to 10% (or 6% average for the five games above).

As you can see from the 1440x900 graphs, the three 'late 2008' MacBook Pros have plenty of "oomph" to run 3D games at the native resolution. If you want to see how much they slow down when you switch from the GeForce 9600M GT to the integrated 9400M, we have a SPECIAL PAGE for that.

When it comes to 3D accelerated graphics, the "late 2008" 13" MacBook 2.4GHz (with its integrated GeForce 9400M) is not as pathetic as the previous models of MacBook with the integrated GMA X3100 or 950. But its integrated GeForce 9400M is still no match for the dedicated GeForce 9600M GT (or 8600M GT) in the 2008 (and 2007) MacBook Pros.
