It doesn't have a very good video card. Laptop versions of video cards are even slower than desktop variants, so that is most likely the reason for the low score.

No way man, 3dmark is primarily a video card benchmark. I mean I would have have thought you'd get 700-800 maybe more, but that is an old video card. Is it a 9000 pro or just a 9000 to your knowledge. I don't know if there was a pro for notebooks or not.

I was dissin' it, just saying it was old

I would have hoped for 700-800 too were it mine, there are a few varibles to that, but 564 really isn't suprising with that card. Especially in light of shadowbreaker513's observation the laptop versions are a little slower than the desktop one's which I based my guess on.
