    Can someone run 3dMark06 or Vantage on their K42JV 335m?

    I'm stuck between the Lenovo y460 (i5 520, 5650) and the Asus K42JV (i5 450, 335m). There was a post at a Thai forum putting the Asus at 7500 for 3dMark06, but I'm not sure how far to trust this result. One of the pro reviews of the y460 got almost exactly the same score.

    The 5650 seems to perform significantly better in real world tests compared to the 335m, ( Notebookcheck: Computer Games on Laptop Graphic Cards) but it's tough to tell what processor / system setup was used for these benchmarks. Also, the avg score in the details of both Vantage and 3dMark06 were higher with the 335m.

    5650: Notebookcheck: ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5650

    335m: Notebookcheck: NVIDIA GeForce GT 335M

    So what I really need is 3dMark scores from the K42JV.

    I really want to buy the Asus. I respect what the company has done over the years, and the keyboard and build quality are second to none, but I need to see benchmarks from both systems before I can make a solid decision...

    Anyone with benchmarks of either of these systems would be great.
