13. Quake III Arena

The integrated ATI Mobility allows playing games on the notebook to a certain and very limited extent. It's not a desktop Geforce2, but try to run a desktop PC at 12W.

The Quake 3 Arena results give already some idea of Crusoe's performance in comparison with a Pentium III. The C1V is clearly outperformed. However, this tiny Sony notebook is of course not designed for 3D-gaming anyway.

We find a similar picture with the DirectX game. The influence of the CPU can be seen at maximum and minimum modes of the Transmeta CPU.

When you see the results, you might be shocked at first. Is it possible to work with such a slow device? For the answer, I asked Tom to make some Sysmark runs with Kate's 3-year old P6300 Notebook that's using a PentiumII 366MHz, a top performer of its time. You can see that even a notebook of the vintage is scoring better than the C1V. Still, the office application performance is sufficient enough for average use.
