    i cant tell you about the 1 fps during the cpu test but i know for sure that 4664 is a veeeery good score for a non overclocked 8600m gt ddr3..most people manage to get in the range of 4400 at stock clocks..if i were u, i would not worry...your lappy rocks man!!!

    That score isn't really accurate, as his 1440x900 display forces the test to run at 1280x800 rather than the default 1280x1024.

    But yes, it's a normal result. Don't worry about the GPU being listed as a GS, that's normal (it's not a GS - running GPU-Z confirms 8600GT core and DDR3 memory). And the CPU test running at low FPS is normal too.

    Oooh. Nice one!

    It had loads of crap in the background too and I havent even updated the drivers or anything yet.

    Knowing my luck ill upgrade to the superior drivers and get a worse score

    Down to 4493 on 2nd try worth a supposedly better driver. I got 100 less in the 2 shader ones but about 200 more in CPU somehow
