    What resolution are you running it at? My best score was 1905 without overclocking. Average is high 1800's.

    According to 3DMark05 its 1024x768...Mainly because its the free version. So basically everyone that has the free version would test it at 1024x768 (default).

    So my notebook is set to 1280x800 but 3DMark05 is running the tests at 1024x768.

    Thats an impressive score. I've broken 2000, but I didn't get that high.

    Definitely in good fun man :)

    Its actually good to know the SZ can be overclocked to an extent seeing that everyone else is getting 1800-2000 scores.

    Thats only if someone with a Premium Model cares to participate in the fun of overclocking ofcourse.

    Its very possible...the same way the SZ is.

    Dont expect brilliant scores though as it only has a 64MB dedicated.
