    I've seen a lot of threads on how Crysis performs on notebooks, but I'm genuinely curious as to how Call of Duty 4 performs for you guys. What kind of settings and resolutions have any of you been running it at? Smooth?

    I just installed the single player demo a few hours ago. At highest settings the demo allows with no antialiasing or anistropic filtering, a resolution of 1024x768 and an aspect ratio of 16:10 it averages in the mid 30s, with a low of 25 frames per second. Card is an overclocked 8600m gt and 169.01 drivers. Gameplay reminds me of a mix of halo and ghost recon.

    My Sager NP5790 with 7950GTX play it at max settings at 1440x900 and it never drops below 30fps even in extremely intense fights. :)

    Yea its the DDR2 version. I'll edit this post with my 3dmark score when i find it out. Haven't re-installed 3dmark06 yet since my last format. Fortunately i have a 20meg internet connection, unfortunately the download server apparently doesn't.

    3dmark06:
    stock (475/950/400): 3421
    OCed (620/1350/510): 4391

    I'm playing it on the system in my sig in 1280x800, 2xAA, almost everything on, Texture Filtering Auto, but AF on min. Plays smooth in this settings, but as soon as I higher the AF setting, it gets jerky.

    I have a few screenshots, if anyone wants to see them ;-)
