I thnk gethosted only showed us a sample of the Index Rating. Im using V3125 with Vista RC1 and its rating is as follows:

nkymark & vpam5221,

nkymark, nice score there. just more convincing to get v3000 series.

You are correct. I just copy and paste from Internet. I hope to rate v3000 series notebook from WEI. What I'm using right now is just pure 1.0 due to the GMA900. I planning to upgrade my notebook to V3xxx from AMD Turion to Intel C2D. I just want to have a better value + performance.

Or someone has this research which model is best for money & performance.

Come on, share your WEI score here.

im not sure this could help. but 1 thing i realise is the ram i bought is pc2-5300 CL5. or else mayb u need to upgrade nb bios or goto AMD web site install any tool that related to cpu.

below are my ram detail. see any similarity?

Here are some test i done today after i bought 1G ram today

My exp index for graphic still not impresive. Is there any way to pull the graphic card memory. currently i only had 42Mb

Then suddenly i had a crazy idea. Why dont put 1G ram in module 1 and 512 in 2nd module. hehehe

Normally Dual-Channel are enabled automatically when you put in 2 identical capacity and speed RAM sticks. If not, you will have to check your BIOS setting.

I think I going to get a V3222; should I get it now or wait for April PC Fair? And, should I directly ask for 2GB RAM upgrade rather than upgrade it manually myself? (will it void the warranty?)
