    I just ran this for the first time. Specs are in sig. The reason I think it must be bugged is because sleey0 got the 820qm and got less then half of that cpu score, our gpu scores where the same. Here's my scores.

    Disable PhysX as it inflates your CPU score. You'll see a big difference with it disabled.
