    i did the test and got just over 3400 points when i did the 3DMark06 test. I have a t7100 1.8ghz 1gb ram and 256mb 8600m gt running vista. Would you say that my score reflects the best capability of my system?

    just wanted to know so i could make improvements if need be
    cheers for the help in advance

    EDIT

    1280x800 Resolution and DDR2 and its not overclocked

    Overclocked or not?

    I got 4040 with 650/512 overclocked on 1280 x 1024 and more than 4500 on 1280 x 800. Not overclocked, I got 3100-ish on 1280 x 1024 and around 3600 on 1280 x 800.

    Oh, and there is no way that is a Gddr3 8600M GT card, they get over 4000 with stock drivers and not overclocked.
