    3dmark is designed to stress your graphics card as much as possible. If a desktop gtx280 chokes there, what would u expect from a 9600m crippled by ddr2 vram? it only has 32 SPs after all

    overclocks quite well though, and with the latest 256.x drivers does it even better (managed to get it to 680/520/1600 without much trouble, just need to watch the temps since it is a hot baby from the start)
