    And to put it in perspective, my Asus C90s with the 8600GT DDR3 256 version got just around 4000 in 3dmark06
    Ntune reports the 8700GT clocks on the toshiba at 675 core clock, and 700 memory clock

    Laptop stats in sig:

    3dmark06 at 1280x1024 625/700 (stock clocks) 163.44 = 4467
    That's bloatware uninstalled, updated with the windows hotfixes and the DX update.

    note 3dmark06 has a processor-only portion which biases by 150-200 per processor grade (approx) in the T7xxx series of C2D.

    I guess we can conclude the BB X205 dispute is at rest :)

    Yes its DDR3 on the 8700GT in the BB machine.....Its just too bad the 8700 is just marginally better than the 8600GT....hopefully we will see a 8800GTX in the near future :)

    Yes, the BB x205 must be GDDR3... nvidia does not make GDDR2 8700s as that is not the design.


    Marginally better? 30% better is marginal?

    Are we comparing 3dmark06 scores from overclocked 8600s that you can cook eggs on with T7700s to underclocked 8700s on T7100s again?

    I could have sworn I saw a post about an X205 8700M overclocked at 6000+ 3DMark06 at 1280x1024?

    For reference for comparison:

    (non-best buy models)
    X205-S9359 have been listed as getting between 44xx-46xx
    http://forum.notebookreview.com/showthread.php?t=170847

    In Chaz's review of the X205-S9349 he reported 4734 in 3dmark06

    I got 4950 3DMarks (06) at 1280x1024, overclocked with the stock drivers. Maybe my X200-15K's T7700 makes some difference.... see the attachment for clockspeeds (In games with large-caliber graphics, and 3DMark06, the highest temperature I ever got was 70 degrees, most of the time, it stays below 65 degrees).

    pretty sure Chaz's result at 4700 is 1280x864.

    Stock drivers at stock speeds (625/700x2)
    pumps out only 4200 or so at 1280x1024.

    163.xx drivers add 150 or so...
    163.xx drivers + windows hotfixes pushes the stock score up to 4400-4500.

    Each rank of C2D processor you add is 150-200 due to the processor-only section/score. (to be fair, I have no data for how far the 7700 would push it as I only had similar units with T7100 and T7500s...)

    stock drivers + windows hotfixes + 775/938x2 OC (68C max)gets the 5194 score in my sig...

    If I can get this BIOS OC to work, I will likely be posting 5400 or so with 163.xx drivers at 775/938x2 with a 1.8 T7100 behind it!

    If I had a T7500, and could get the BIOS OC to work and run 163.xx drivers, I'd likely be getting a 5700+ or so at 1280x1024.

    How much do the HotFixes raise your 3DMark?

    4467

    at 1280x1024 with hotfixes KB938194, KB940105, KB938979, DX update (august), and 163.44 drivers.

    That is at stock clocks 625/700x2 with a T7100.

    Z3r0, that looks like a 1280x864 score for your hardware.

    FYI the 165.xx drivers are older than the 163.xx ones...

    I agree, that display wont even do that res.... Mine does, and I get mid 4300's for a 3dmark06 score(even tried almost every driver). Still is a good score....processor doesn't seem to affect it much.

    OV10 have you applied the Vista hotfixes?

    Compatibility fixes - KB938194
    Memory - KB940105
    Performance - KB938979

    Also, might want to get the latest DX refresh if you haven't already (I'm using august's)

    Got 'em all... was just talking about his laptop. My laptop gets pretty much the same 3dmark score regardless of which driver I use. The newer drivers do make a diff in dx10 though(original Toshiba driver sucks).

    I just got a x205-s9349 last night, i tried applying the three patches you guys mentioned, but the "Compatibility fixes - KB938194" one said it doesnt apply to my system, is that normal?

    The "Performance - KB938979" also failed. It must be that windows update already installed these. Thats my assumption anyway

    Hi fellas,

    I bought the -s9349 and OC'd to 729core/1458shader/848mem.

    Scored 5210 BUT the res. is 1280*800...

    ...i cant see an option to adjust the res. to 1280*1024 - is that bc this model screen is limited to 1440*900????

    Yeah, it's not a supported resolution, so it won't let you select it.... you'd have to hook up an external monitor that supports it to try it at that res...
