Test Notes

The MOBILITY 9700 system was Dell’s high performance Inspiron XPS. This is Dell’s flagship notebook, that’s been designed to appeal to gamers. It ships with high-end hardware, our system was outfitted with a Pentium 4 3.4GHz, sitting on an 865PE motherboard with 2GB of DDR400 memory. Dell doesn’t skimp on the graphics either as they’ve decided to clock the MOBILITY 9700 up to ATI’s top specifications.

In order to see how the MOBILITY 9700 compared to its predecessor, we’ve included benchmarks from the ASUS L5000GA we tested in May. If you recall, this system was outfitted with a MOBILITY 9600 PRO, Pentium 4 3.2GHz, and 1GB of DDR400 RAM. Since the CPU is a little slower we decided to limit our results with this system to 1280x1024 and 1600x1200, where system performance is limited by the graphics subsystem and not the CPU. We’ve also thrown in a RADEON 9600 XT and 9600 PRO for comparison with a desktop system.



Back! What makes the MOBILITY 9700 so special?     IL-2 Sturmovik Next!
