The Notebook Review forums were hosted by TechTarget, who shut down them down on January 31, 2022. This static read-only archive was pulled by NBR forum users between January 20 and January 31, 2022, in an effort to make sure that the valuable technical information that had been posted on the forums is preserved. For current discussions, many NBR forum users moved over to NotebookTalk.net after the shutdown.

    Be sure to run windows Wei after you rebooted.
    You may need to keep ThrottleStop running turned on otherwise your CPU may throttle during the benchmarks.

    Re-run the assessment and make sure to run throttlestop as well as being on high performance power plan, whether P4G or Windows. Even if you said you ran it on AC, it still seems like the kind of score you'd get on battery.

    Right now, my G73 puts your WEI to shame :p.
