    Default Is there a "Minimum 3Dmark06 required for X game" table?

    I realize it's not an exact benchmark, dependent on both CPU and the gfx, but the 3DMark06 score is useful to gauge the relative gaming power of different laptops.

    Is there a table or listing of games and corresponding minimum or recommended 3dMark06 scores? This would be very helpful when choosing a new laptop!

    But 3Dmark11 is really a much better gauge for newer games, Vantage as well. 3DMark06 is so biased towards CPU it's not even funny. You could get a great 3DMark06 score if you have a really powerful CPU but weak GPU.
