3d mark 2001 tests

ive been shopping around for a laptop, and man, all these dicissions are killin me! ie: what video card to get, how big of a hard drive, all for the sake of doing some gamming. Although i realized that laptop magazine actually benchmark test all its laptop. Being interested in the dell 6000 with the 128 dedicated video card, there 3dmark score of 4900 was for the 128 shared. I was just wondering if anyone knows a benchmark score for the 128 dedicated video. as for the rest of the system, 1.6 pentium M 60 harddrive at 7200rpm, and 1G memory, so if you have a similar system maybe you would be kind enough to download the program and run it on your machine.
btw: the program features some really niced rendered enviorment which were all very pleasant to the eye.

 

don't rely on 3dmark2001 scores to discover a computers gaming performance.


Instead, what type of games do you plan on playing?

I have a 128x300 dedicated and I've been able to play CS Source, Brothers in Arms, and other new games at medium detail with a very very good framerate. To enable 4xaa and 4xaf though you will probably have to run the games at low detail (1280x800 resolution)

If you want actual technical benchmarks...I can try to get some for you after work but honestly, go over to the hardware forum here or gaming forum and just search for x300 posts, you will find what you are looking for.

The I6000d with 128mb X300 should play all games out now fine. It should be alright for the next year, at least.

I have the I6000 with integrated graphics, even that can play most games out now.

actually im looking into the games coming out this summer like battlefield 2, call of duty 2, all pretty graphiclly intense, id prefer the 9300 for the performance, but ill have to face some additional hurdles, like a jealous father(my 40 year old dad still plays games and his desktop is only bechmarked at 9738 on 3dmark01, which i believe is comprable to the 6000 alone on 128 dedicated.), and the additional price and the large size over the 6000 might not get my mothers approval(unfortunelty my mom has to get involved for i dont have any plastic in my name). Mainly if the performance is far better(close to xps2 range) im certain i will go to despreate measures to get my hands on the 9300, but i just want confirmation with some real numbers.

thanks, but mo, you dont have to go through the trouble, i was really hopping that maybe someone had theses numbers(for the 256 dedicated 9300, and the 128 dedicated dells on hand for the comparison.


thanks for any help offered
