Since I was bored I figured I would do some D3 benching with my new note book, specs in sig.
The setting in the driver control panel were : AA and ANISO set to "Application Preference"
MipMap and Texture quality were set to "Highest"
Radeon 9700 Mobile clocked @ 405mhz Core/230mhz(460) Mem
I ran the standard demo 1, 3 times to make sure the results weren't screwed from disk I/O activity that happens when you run the demo the first time.
Doom 3 setting were "Low" "Medium" "High" with all the advanced options enabled.
Low Quality
640x480 = 48fps
800x600 = 34fps
1024x768 = 22fps
1280x1024 = 14fps
Medium Quality
640x480 = 48fps
800x600 = 34fps
1024x760 = 22fps
1280x1024 = 20fps
High Quality
640x480 = 42fps
800x600 = 30fps
1024x768 = 20fps
1280x1024 = 14fps
3Dmark 2001 "11,233" http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k1=8130211
3Dmark 2003 "3200" (Orb screwed so no url on this score)
3DMARK 2005 "1192" Won't let me publish the score
Looking at the results(For doom 3) it kinda seems like my CPU (Dothan 1.6ghz) is somewhat of a limiting factor at the low and med quality settings, but the graphics card scales very nicely with the bump up in resolution (its only 128mb)
I'm quite happy with these results becasue I never really intended to play games on my notebook. Considering its only 6lbs and 1.3inches thick I'm very impressed battery life while benching this with screen brightness at max and speedstep off was just over 2 hours with the standard 8 cell Lithium Ion battery.
I'm curious to see what others have got in respect to 3d performance out of their notebook/laptops
***EDIT*** I'm using the 6.14.10.6467 OMEGA dRIVER
