The latest 3DMark's Ice Storm test got 22112, Cloud Gate got 1861, and Fire Strike got 287. The 3DMark06 benchmark showed the graphics prowess of the AMD A6 APU - it recorded 2948 in this benchmark, which is a stellar result for such a small and inexpensive laptop. If you're desperate, you can even use the Pavilion 11 Touchsmart to convert video files it took 45min 22sec to turn a DVD file into an MP4 using HandBrake, which is about 25min more than a typical Ultrabook. In our Blender 3D rendering test, the Pavilion 11 Touchsmart recorded 1min 47sec, which is 2min 13sec faster than the last Intel Atom-based netbook that we tested back in 2010 (the Acer Aspire One Happy), and its time of 4min 58sec to encode MP3 files in iTunes is over 1min better. It's also useful for multitasking and comes with 4GB of RAM to facilitate this (HP says there is one memory slot inside that can handle up to 8GB). Overall speed from the quad-core AMD A6-1450 APU (AMD's name for a CPU that has built-in graphics processing) is quite decent considering the price point and size of the unit, and you can easily use the Pavilion 11 Touchsmart for common Web browsing tasks (including to view Flash-based video sites), for word processing, for some photo editing, and for viewing video up to Full HD resolutions.
