my wei #'s are ...
Processor: 4.1
Mem: 5.3
Graphics: 3.2
Gaming G: 6.3
Hd: 5.3
Question is why is my processor soo low?
i have an m11x r2 i7 with 4gb.. any reasons? my bios is the newest one avaliable id assume.
-
Is it overclocked any bit? If its at 133mhz then it will be lower.
-
no its not overclocked at all
however i have throttle stop on
does that make any difference? -
Maybe it's just because the i7-640UM isn't all that great of a processor. I mean, it's an i7, but it's also a ULV processor with a 1.2 GHz clock speed and only turbos up to 2.26 GHz.

Core i5 m11x r2, 166mhz, latest drivers, no gpu oc, throttlestop on 30w tdp -

How come the graphics can be at 5.3. mine is only 3.1 with the latest driver.

Run CPU-Z and make sure it is reporting 2 Cores, 4 Threads. Too many users have accidentally disabled one of their cores so it will only report 1 Core, 2 Threads.
If this is the problem, run msconfig and click on Boot, Advanced Options and make sure Number of processors is NOT checked. Reboot after that.
Once that is fixed, download ThrottleStop so you can run as fast as everyone else.

hi uncle webb sorry im not great with computers where do i check that it is running 2 cores, 4 threads? on cpu-z?
-
Towards the bottom right of CPU-Z.
-

?

Mine is
Processor: 6.1
Memory: 5.5 (Only 2GB or RAM @ 7-7-7-20 as one stick went bad)
Graphics: 5.2 (Set to low performance for more vcore on the CPU)
Gaming Graphics: 6.5
Primary Hard Disk: 7.3
Thats at the settings in my sig. -
-
Processor: 6.0
Mem: 5.9
Graphics: 5.5
Gaming G: 6.6
Hd: 5.9
How come the core i5 is 6.1 ? -
Why don't you guys do cKranez a favor and reset your laptops to default specs and run WEI without any overclocking? That would give him some numbers to compare to. As nice as these overclocked WEI scores are, they are useless to compare to since cKranez already stated that he is not overclocking. -
the cpu useage is that bar next to the graph right? if so its going from 0%-8% on just normal browsing like goign on chrome and having some programs open such as steam i have throttle stop and im using it befoer i even made this thread.. i have tpl set at 30/30 everything is unchanged from what i read? and shouldnt i have overclocking off? when i have throttlestop on? unless i read incorrectly somewhere... thank you unclewebb for your help and patience!

On the M11x-R2, ThrottleStop is designed to improve performance after you overclock in the bios. If you are not overclocking then ThrottleStop probably won't show any significant improvement.
Your CPU Usage sounds fairly normal. If you want better performance then I guess you will have to overclock like everyone else is doing. -
Below is a 'standard' BIOS over-clocked M11xR1 SU7300 1.6Ghz WEI for your reference.

Its fine to overclock in the Bios. Alienware wouldn't have kept it in the bios if it wasn't safe.
You may not be able to hit the full 166BLK due to the ram. It at very fast timings at stock and sometimes can't keep up. Try something around 150 and see how you get on. -
ok so i overclocked it and the score changed from 4.1 - 4.7 ... still pretty low what is going on
!?
-
what bios are people using? I am on A04 and I can't even OC anything without it crashing!
-
-
I'm on the volt modded A03 0.95V instead of 0.90v

Core i7 R2 all stock

HDD 5.9
Score: 5.3 -
does anyone here know why im getting 2.3 for graphics score?
this is making my base score 2.3 which is pathetic really considering i paid $1300 for R2.... -
You are getting such a low wei score because it takes the lowest score out of all of them. If it "graphics" that are low, just update to the newest nvidia drivers. This will fix the problem. Im on 275.33.

Just updated mine with the new RAM.
6.4 CPU
5.9 RAM
5.4 Aero
6.6 Gaming
7.1 HDD
Having the intel graphics does have its drawbacks. With Aero on AutoCAD 2010 can be a little laggy and not particularly nice to use. Using game booster which turns off Aero its far more snappy than my 2.66 Quad Core work desktop.
