intel m3 7th gen hd graphics help

I bought a ultrabook

wondering how to improve my score of 5300 in cloudgate with the intel hd 615....notebookcheck says it can score 7800 for graphics im hitting 5300 max with new drivers...should i try intels drivers on their site>?

if anyone here knows how to squeeze out more juice from this cpu/gpu I would appreciate it.

thanks in advance

 

What are your full system spec?

I know its asus i cringe but i need the battery life

8gb ram
m3 7th gen
256gb ssd
1080p matte
intel 615 hd

and yes this laptop actually gets 10 hours with brightness and keyboard lights on while actually doing stuff.. i get 20 hours with typical manufactures guidelines for advertising battery life....aka idle

not sure why im scoring so low....Im in no way a rookie to computers...just thought id chime in and ask for help solving this faster...i think its the power limit of my cpu but heck what do i know.....next thing everyones probably thinking is undervolt....i could...just want to know if theres something im missing

 

ok so its the m3 7y30 processor.....and it should be scoring 6800 gfx....im getting 5100-5300 with a max of 5800 one time

 

actually im a rookie with this type of processor....was wondering how i prevent power limit throttling? i lowered the core voltage offset to -.7 but that however did nothing

 

i dont think anyone cares lol

but i found i nice tutorial on youtube....still no luck still throttles due to power...im outta luck unless theres something im missing.

 

ok so the problem is powerlimit throttling. and cannot be lifted with XTU.

The solution... powerplan settings-advanced settings-processor power management- lower min to 5 and raise max or lower it to 90 percent

all you have done is limit the cpu speed and the power needed to run at higher clocks....you will get lower cpu scores but as in my case your gpu score in cloudgate can go from 20fps to 31fps

long story short...slowing down the cpu allows me to play tomb raider at 1080p normal settings on a M3 7y30 processor and with the intel hd 615.

instead of playing grid on verylow at 25-22 fps i can now set the important settings to high or ultra and net 28-30 fps. such as textures and shaders ectera.

I hope this helps 1 or 2 people out
