    Can anyone with a x120e run Geekbench? Preferrably if you've got the E-350 APU. I'm just interested in having something to compare my other computers to.

    32-bit benches are ok, 64-bit would be a bonus. Make sure it's the regular version (2.1.13 as of writing), rather than the beta. Thanks!

    Your wish is my command! This is on my x120e with the E-350 and an upgrade to the RAM (6gb total, 4gb + 2gb). Plain Win 7 x64 Pro SP1, AMD drivers. Running the 32-bit geekbench cause I don't have a license.

    Hope you're not too disappointed :).

    Wow, I'm somewhat dissapointed, to be honest. I thought the E-350 APU would perform significantly better than my Celeron SU2300 in my Acer 1410. Here's a comparison between your unit and mine, both doing 32-bit marks.

    Compare LENOVO 64574UU with LENOVO 0596CTO : Geekbench Result Browser

    No offense to you and your unit, clicq. More against the E-350 as a whole. I was thinking about replacing my 1410 and T61 with a x120e. The only benefits I could see are:
    * better battery life
    * better graphics
    * better build quality

    Tradeoff would be lower processing power. Might think twice about this.

    Thanks for the benchmarks!

    Oops, that's comparing the x120e to the T61!

    Compare Acer Aspire 1410 with LENOVO 0596CTO : Geekbench Result Browser

    That's the comparison between the 1410 and x120e!

    Yea, raw CPU performance isn't really the strength of the E-350. You have to remember it's really competing against the atom, and it only manages to compete against the CULV chips because the graphics perform a lot better than what intel had offered for integrated graphics.
