anyone with the studio xps 16 share there gaming benchmark results?

just wondering how you guys get on with modern games with the ati gpu as i may have to get one of these machines and any performance indicators would be nice to see

 

should be around 5000 3Dmark06, what sort of games do you have in mind? because the ATI on the sxps 16 is mid-range, which will work with all of the recent games, but you might have to lower the resolution a bit.

 

i dont play games but if i have to get the studio as an exchange for my latitude then i want something really quick as if its not the machine that i really want so i need to find something for it to do

 

yes, it should do the job. The gpu is plenty powerful for a if you'll be using it as a business computer but i warn you that the battery life is not that great because of the dedicated gpu.

 

thanks for the repy luke , i am rarely of the mains anyways so the battery is not too important to me, although i do like power efficiency !

if its able to play games perhaps its time i gave some a go ,i played crysis on my mates pc and that wasnt bad but i know that game kills systems

i take it the ati card in the studio wouldnt do very well with crysis ?

what desktop card is it most similar so i can find reviews to compare it to as i cant seem to find reviews where people tested games its really just 3dmark results i can see which dont give me real game performance

 

ok i found this on another thread:

but if i was you, i would wait, they are upgrading the graphics card from a 3xx series to a 4xx which is all the difference IMO

here is the "upgrade" thread : http://forum.notebookreview.com/showthread.php?t=382817

oh and right now there are so many xps 16 threads here in NBR, you only need to look close enough ( found this info on the front page of the xps forum lol )

 

yeh i know but i need a new machine asap my latitude e6500's fingerprint reader is practically on fire and burns your finger

and im trying to sort out a different system as im obviously rather unhappy about the situation so they best come up with a nice specced xps 16

 

Here is the result for the studio xps 16. Although their 3dmark06 is kinda low, you can still know that it will run at least that score or FPS. http://www.notebookcheck.net/ATI-Mobility-Radeon-HD-3670.9595.0.html
