    Quick question: why are the 3dMark06 numbers found by reviewers on this website consistently lower than those compiled at notebookcheck? I imagine that the reviewers are more accurate. Whats with this discrepancy???

    Thanks

    This may be something to do with the display resolution used in the tests. This should be specified along with the results. Lower resolution gives a higher score.
