    Hi guys :)

    I was just curious too see what your Macs' PCMark05 scores would be in Windows under BootCamp. Surprisingly, I got a 5000! I thought that I would get something closer to 6000. I mean I have 4 GB of RAM and 512 MB of VRAM and a 2.53 GHz CPU (which I overclock to 2.8 in Windows to play games). So what are your scores?

    uhh... well...

    you are getting the same score as any other windows computer with a 4 GB of ram and a 2.53 ghz core 2 duo processor overclocked to 2.8 ghz...

    whether a score of 5000 is good or bad, or 6000 is the cutoff for sufficiency is another problem entirely, beyond the scope of my opinions.
