3dmark and the sz laptop

Can anybody PLEASE post their 3dmark05/06 scores on the SZ laptop and what specs you have AS SOON AS POSSIBLE?

I'm planning on picking up this notebook today if I can get some compairasons(sp). To my S360. Example: I can hit 1111pts in 3dmark05. I know its only a benchmark, but I'm going to be using this as a small backup laptop for my games and business while away and I cant take my XPS2 laptop. The s360 I have plays WoW (World of warcraft) ok with everything turned down and at 1280x800. I was looking at playing other games like Load of the rings 2 with th egraphics turned up, etc.

So far this 13.3in screen and video card seems to be the best choice.

 

SZ160 with 2gb of ram and updated drivers, I got a score of 1905 in 3dmark05

 

I can tell you how Black & White 2, Battle for Middle Earth 2 and FarCry run if you like?

I run them ALL in full resolution with settings on HIGH. No problems, this is one kick ass laptop.

 

thanks! Please post more info.
xprohx- Your sz160 comes with what processor? and if you get a chance, what does it do with stanima turned on?

 

The sz160 comes with a 1.83 core duo. I'm not a big pc gamer, but I played a little madden 06 and f.e.a.r. Madden played great, and Fear was ran on the whatever settings that the game defaulted to with a only a few hiccups, but pretty smooth.

 

Are you running the games at 1280x800?
I was hooping for something higher than 1905 for 3dmark05. My s360 does 1111, but that could easly be a big difference I guess at almost double... hmmm

 

I acutally wasn't running them at 1280x800 because I just wanted to test the games and never really got into the nitty gritty...maybe I should have. But I'm seeing most users on here are getting scores in the 1900's, just don't expect too much from the 7400.

thanks. Let me know if you can run at native resolution. I like playing games at that.(looks cleaner on screen)

 

i can play HL2 at native resolution, medium settings with AA set at 2 - runs lag free

Doom 3 on similar settings lag free aswell.

most games should be no problem just with newer and more graphic demanding games dont expect to play on high detailed settings

 

right, right. never meant to do that on the s360 either, but I needed something with more horsepower yet in a small laptop. So i'm trying to compair things I run on my s360. Mainly its wow. I want to run it@ 1280x800 with everything on. Or close to@30fps. Right now, I can do 25-40fps with everything on low. But I know it doesnt take much more Horsepower to push up the graphics on this game, si I should be able to do it with a bump from 9700 to 7400nvidia.

 

I have 1.83 core duo and get a 1950 3dmarkscore.

CS: Source (all HL2 Engine games, for that matter) runs at full detail at full screen. Doom III runs at medium detail fullscreen, Civ IV runs at full detail full screen (late game situations are still smooth. If you've played Civ IV you know what I'm talking about).

This is with 1gb and 2gb of memory....there is less stuttering with 2gb.

 

thanks for the info! This upgrade maybe what i'm looking for. I dont thing those games run at all for me. I triede civiv and it runs, but its slow with gfx on max. You know the earth at the start. comes on slowly.

 

Yes, I had a 9700 in a DTR and it was slow. I can't imagine WoW at full running worse than doom at medium. One of the first things I did when I got the SZ was load Civ IV, and play a modern age medium size map that absolutely crawled on my old machine. It was smooth as butter.

The HL stress test nets a comfortable 60fps....

 

Shhh. Its in my backpack. My wife doesnt know I have the s360 wrapped up in the box. I didn't even charge it yet. I hope it was worth it.

 

hehe. good luck avoiding your wife and enjoy when you're able

 

Hadn't had time to fiddle, but I noticed with the new nvidia window, I just can't see how much memory my laptop has for video. How can I find this? Btw, I bought it from Best buy and its teh sz110. If you look at it, it says it comes with 256mb video ram.

So if it doesnt have it, they cant stick it to me by not letting me return it. Even the guy at the counter said it did.
