I've just received my m9750 and DAMN is it an amazing notebook. I was extremely surprised by the benchmark tests on this machine. I'd expect 4500-5000 from a single 8700M GT card... but these results were much better.
  • Doom 3
    • Doom 3: 160.6 fps
  • 3DMark 2006
    • Customer Information:
    • 3DMark Score: 5,846.00 3DMarks
    • SM2.0 Score: 2,577.00
    • HDR/SM3.0 Score: 2,389.00
    • CPU Score: 1,758.00
    • Game Score: 0.00 Points
    • SM2.0 Graphics Tests
    • GT1 - Return To Proxycon: 20.73 FPS
    • GT2 - Firefly Forest: 22.23 FPS
    • CPU Tests
    • CPU1 - Red Valley: 0.55 FPS
    • CPU2 - Red Valley: 0.89 FPS
    • HDR/SM3.0 Graphics Tests
    • HDR1 - Canyon Flight: 20.32 FPS
    • HDR2 - Deep Freeze: 27.46 FPS
Am I underestimating the power of this card? 5846 for a no overclocked 512 8700M on 3dMark06 seems higher than the norm. If its higher than normal... or not, I'm not complaining!

This is for an m9750 with Core 2 Duo 2.0 Ghz T7200, single 8700M, and 1GB of ram.

If it's 1280x1024, feels spectacular. What are the default clocks?

Yes, this is at the default 1280 x 1024 settings. Default clocks are 625 Core, 1250 Shader and 800 memory.

XP. It was originally ordered with Vista, then shortly after realized what a terrible plan that was and changed the order to XP.

no direct X 10? I assume you don't own any direct x 10 games, like Crysis...

Nah, DX10 is very overrated for now. One- I don't play any DX10 games at this point, and don't see much coming up that I'm getting over excited for. Two- Looking at screenshots, the difference between DX9 and DX10 effects is not all that noticeable.

I'll take the performance boost of XP over a few DX10 effects.

I'm with you on that. Unless I have dual 8800gtx and quad processors I won't be worrying about "missing out" on directx10.
