    I got an LG E500 today with the following specs:


    C2D T8300, 3 gigs of ram, 8600M GS


    and i ran 3dmark06 on it. I get a total of 1700 marks which sounds pretty pathetic.

    I tried updating the drivers with those on laptopvideo2go (which are pretty old actually), and got a bump up to 1800 marks.

    Any ideas whats up? Ive seen laptops with similar specs that get far higher (more than double) scores...
