can' really rely on the benchmark on notebookcheck, since the mark is average between multiple notebook, which can be using different vram of the gpu and different cpu which also affect much on the score.

well, you are comparing rm 3.9k machine with rm 2.7k machine.
can't say its a fair comparison.

yes, but his using the intel/nvidia version which is RM3899, not the amd/ati version.
do forgive me if I sounded harsh, I just don't want people who just passing by here misunderstood that the 2.7k version hp dm3 is better than the ideapad y series while the dm3 being tested is 3.9k version and ended up disappointment when they bought it.
since on Perfomance test 7, no spec of which dm3 is being told.

okay, understood~
earl-ku, hows the battery life for intel/nvidia?
any screenshot of the temp while idle/load?

and what about heat on palm rest? or any hot spot on the keyboard? the bottom?
