What's your configuration? That's really close to what I got.. I think mine was 3917 the first time. But about that the second time. I should've done it a third time for an average.

Anyway, that looks about right, and darn good

I noticed while playing WoW last night that the picture looked sort of... powdery. Saw it on my background too... as if it's not smoothing or.. something. I might try the drivers on the intel site, as someone said they were getting scores comparable to omega's with them.

However, I'm also having an annoying viewing angle issue... well, annoying to me... I may just not be used to glossy screens. While in WoW, if I shift forward or back a little I don't want the top or bottom of the screen to not be illuminated the same as the middle. I kept having to adjust.

If it gets worse I'll know it's the screen. Or... I'll probably just get used to the screen

Im not so sure if I like the Omega drivers. I just played BF2 and it sort of seemed to lag a bit, I think it may have ran better with the stock drivers. Who knows. WHat is considered a good scrore?

Similiar specs to me, if you look at my sig.

My score was 3927 in 3DMark05.

Yes, I have also noticed a bit of stuttering in bf2, usually on the higher pinging ones, im still looking for a solution, but its not really that bad. Bf2 looks great!

Does this laptop get slightly higher (say 4000) with the 2Ghz Core Duo?

From 3900 to 4000.. It's 2.5% performance difference.

Do you think you'll be able to notice the difference between 39 or 40 fps in a game? I don't think so.

That was Z, but again, both laptops are the same except the LCD and Bluetooth.

about the same as yours, it should be fine. Core Duo does run much cooler than Dothan, My Z70VA w/PM 740 is always at 73*(Firefox 1 tab) ~90*(firefox multiple tabs).

(im more of a desktop user so anything over 60C scares me)

Im going to oc and see if i can break 4000, maybe even 4200
