I just bought a new laptop and the company benchmarked my graphics card and PC.

Here's the results before they shipped. How does this compare? I'm not really sure what the score means because I looked online and the newest gen gfx are like 5000+. I'm having trouble finding laptops that have a similar score. Is mine a piece of shit?

nVidia GeForce 6600 Go PCI Express x16 Graphics with 128MB of DDR2 Memory
3dMark05 score: 1693

PCMark05 score: 2587

 

Better test is to open up a game and start playing. If it's choppy, then it's too slow.

Those fake test "scores" and just selling points.

edit: another thing to take into consideration, yours is just a plain 6600. They are well over 7000 now. PLUS it's the laptopy "GO" version which is going to be a cut down low power version of the 6600 also.

Don't compare laptop parts to desktop parts, the laptop will always loose on speed.

 

which laptop did you get?

 

btw....what happened to your last laptop....it wasn't very old?

Yeah the screen got smashed, and the fujitsu LCDs are mad expensive.. so it turns out it'd cost $800 to repair for a 1.5 year old lappy doesn't make sense. So opted at $1500 for something 2X+ better.

 

it got smashed? how'd it get smashed?

 

fisting.
