*OFFICIAL* M15x Benchmark Thread

Just benched again broke my score... not by much though....

 

man had my best gpu bench last night but my internet was some how disconnected and didn't get a pscore so i don't think it counts. gpu score was 9908. the bench failed the 2nd and 3rd time around, dang that sucks. still don't know how to break the 10k mark, now that i see moo's score i know its possible.

 

Sorry!!! about that bro...

Moo has a clevo and a different PSU as well.. And just look at his gpu scores that is not normal... 26c is not normal even at idle.... He would be using something like liquid nitrogen to pull of that score.... lol

 

but here is the screen shot anyways, man i think the 920 is pulling to much power, i either get a high gpu score or a high cpu but never both. really want to get my hands on a bigger psu to see if it can gave me better scores.

 

nice score sad that it didnt give you a pscore

 

Great score, Wizard! Keep working on it and kick some a...., uhmm, butt.

 

no no, I didn't post the screenshot but my cpu scores were 1/2 your score so I looked into it and one of the windows tweaks I had done rang a bell so I checked it out and somehow it was disabling two of my cores. It's the setting in msconfig \BOOT\ADVANCED OPTIONS\# of PROCESSORS...I guess I had it set wrong so I just unchecked the box and my score went up...couldn't really notice that much difference visually.

 

Great scores! This is proof you got a great card. You should be able to sell it pretty easy.... but why sell it?

 

i need to get a ssd... don't have the cash now... intel g2's cost more than £300 here.. and am also looking at OCZ Vertex 2 200gb (£600)...

 

Hi guys,

I ran a 3DMark06 bench today to submit. Basically to give people an idea of the gt240m's performance.

Wow, those are some hefty prices, Wizard! Maybe you should wait a bit till prices normalise.

 

Hi,

I got the below mentioned benchmark scores. They seem to be too low :-(. This is with stock clocks and no modifications done with anything, apart from the install of ATI 10.4 drivers. Some how I am not able to paste the screenshots here. Any suggestions?

 

At least post the score

 

Upload your pics to imageschack and paste the forum codes they give you here so we can check it out.

Ha ha ha! Some simultaneous typing there, Inap!

 

Man Harry you been on fire lately. Just do as Harry says. And I find the 10.3 bench much better than the 10.4

 

Ha ha ha! Lots of fire going on here today by the way! Big shoot-out in front of our house this afternoon!

 

here's my stock score for M15x i7 820qm w 5870m card;

P8648 3DMarks

cpu- 12315
gpu- 7867

ORB - World of Performance

 

Nice stock score! What drivers are you using and have you tried to bump up the clocks a little yet?

 

Sorry for the delay, scores will be updated tonight (my time )

 

So, new driver anyone tried it yet?

 

So, downloaded and tried the new driver, sucked, It couldnt stand my OC clocks (675/1150/1670).
Bawww

 

Installed the new drivers and ran 3dmark06 with my GT240M card:

I just hit 13306 with the new 257.15 drivers. in 3dMark06




I hit 14108 but my stupid screenshot didn't save so all i have is this saved 3dMark file that doesn't open with anything.

 

Man, what a shame the other screen shot wasn't saved! Still a great score, though!

 

Crazy good score dude!
I should try it again with slightly lower OC clocks!
Good job Harry! These scores are pretty good!

 

THanks man! I have no idea really, but it's actually kind of fun to do!

 

Latest Bench 3Dmark06 13400 LOL.



Bah i got excited, but PhysX was on

 

please break that score without phsx's i would like to be pushed into upping the voltage as i don't feel inspired to beat 10pts above my highest score

 

Ok, now's time to get excited. 13438 3dMark06 no PhysX



Vantage 6173 GPU

 

Great scores and without cheating!

 

Bah! Beat my own score again, 13453



*edited for mistype

 

Ran a 3dmark vantage as well:

Nevermind :S, I gotta run a new vantage with my enw clocks.

 

Ya the above Vantage score and the updated 3dMark06 score are as good as I can get it. So, new High Score

 

awesome will be doing something about that tomorrow when i update bios to A06 and drivers to 257.15. hopefully im not stuck to the 197.31 drivers forever(audio issues). oh the excitement is back woot.

 

Hey everyone! I found a fix for coreparking slowdowns in Win7 (i7 etc)

http://forum.notebookreview.com/alienware/486478-fix-win7-i7-sluggish-performance.html

It made my basic benchmarks increase slightly too.. might help here!

 

we've gotta get the results page updated while i'm still on top before Tuenkamen goes and beats my score

 

lol da nuh da nuh da nuh...

 

Harry, you have PhysX turned on in your score for a second there i was like Wwhhhaa, your i7 720 is crazy.

 

ok well you win by a cpu lol

i update my bios to A06 and updated my drivers to 257.15 and only was able to get 13405 at 690/1150/1700. so my only option to beat your score now is to up the voltage i had no other processes running.

i didnt screen shot because i didn't beat your score.

also the 257.15 drivers drop the WEI from 6.8 to 5.9

and in the 3 gpu test the screen flashes once even at stock clocks so this driver doesn't seem that awesome to me.

going back to 197.31 drivers very stable.

 

WOoot . lol

 

don't be surprized if i get higher score the next time i post most likely will have flashed my gpu to 1.03v.

 

lol, yeah i'm not gonna flash my vbios, i'd rather not push my luck with it. Even though there is a good chance this system is going to get replaced soon

 

i would for the heck of it but be as careful as possible as to not void it over flashing the gpu.

also the highest clocks i got with the 257.15 drivers was above and crashed at 700/1150/1700 tried again with the 197.31 drivers but had 690/1150/1725 with the higher shader clock crashed it. so either a miracle driver appears in the next four weeks i can't beat you yet. hehe

but happy in the end, got past the 13.4k mark woot

 

lol yeah only a few weeks ago we broke the 13k mark.

 

yea lol im demanding on this machine lol

 

wow you guys owned this thread, hahahhaha

 

Sorry guys, I know I've been slacking, works been crazy and score list will be updated as soon as I can get to it, should be tonight, but if not, I am off friday.

 

In case it hasn't been mentioned before, Your M17x system is a BEAST. Dual intel x-25 160GB in Raid 0. Nuff said.

 

latest run 10.5 drivers, gave me much lower score than 10.3. but at least i beat my cpu score with this run. too bad my last 10.3 score didn't gave a pscore or that would of been the top gpu score, now it fails everytime at those clocks.
