For the record I have personally ordered 2x P150SM laptops with GTX 780M video cards in them, so I will definitely be playing around with them both and doing benchmarks and review. Should be arriving later this week or early next week.

hope to see some benchmarks soon from various users!!

 

Links don't work, they seem cut off

EDIT: awww, you were faster

 

*whistles innocently*

 

I think I also will buy a 240W PSU when I get whatever notebook I`m buying with the 780M

 

Does it come with a barrel plug or 4-pin?

 

They are both 240w slim adapters. I wanted to see if I could get round the ident pin on the delta and it seems I have. So now they both have 5.5*2.5 barrel where they were the dell barrel with centre pin.

 

Nice. Hopefully I can get my Dell 240W one updated.

 

I love the black pcb in the delta

 

So what about the benchmark and of results... Enough with the power bricks

 

Be with you shortly.

Patience young Padawan.

 

Generic VGA video card benchmark result - Intel Core i7-3940XM,Alienware M18xR2 score: P46862 3DMarks Stock clocks:950/1500, Afterburner clocks:1010/1550 1.012v specs in sig. Gpu temps under load 70c-76c I'm sure once a better Vbios with more voltage comes out I should break 50K

 

Vantage? Really? There's no value in that bench with the beastly CPU's available now and massive shader performance in the 780m. 3DMark 11 or 13 are more relevant IMHO as is X score over P score.

It's like bringing a motor bike to bicycle race.

Excellent benchmarks! Let's keep them coming! I'm going to update the original post with highest benchmark scores noted in this thread achieved in 3 classes produced from 3D Mark 11. Should be fun!

Original post updated!

 

I'd probably recommend firestrike and firestrike extreme...

 

Looking good HT, love to see the temps low even when OCing, sort of off topic but are the fans louder in this new model louder than your old model with the 680M?

 

Your'e right Nutwing,3DMark Vantage is absolutely useless in determining Gpu and Cpu capability

 

If we want to add Firestrike into the mix, I'll update the original post and include that as well.

I'm also interested on what the power draw is against the 180W PSU from the overclock and how much room may be available using the 180W PSU.

 

I've got all the power draw numbers from a dozen different benchmarks. Will be in my review of the Clevo P157SM (Sager NP8250) likely to be complete by end of this weekend.

Many games are limited due to the 180W PSU with an overclock. I had to use my modded 240W PSU to let it perform as it should. BF3, Crysis 3, and Dirt 3, were over 210W from the wall and stuttered until I used the larger PSU.

I'll post Firestrike and Firestrike Extreme benchmarks later. At work now, so no fun to be had with this beast.

 

HT, would you be so kind as to share the information for the modded PSU in your review. So if a prospective buyer decides to go with the P150SM or P157SM model and will be OC'ing, they can look for a similar PSU solution. Thanks!

 

What the heck? I made a post and said it can't be posted until it's approved by a moderator. ???

Let's try this again: Here's a post from another NBR member, and I odered the exact same things. Just need a novice talent at soldering.

yay! 823mhz is indeed true! thanks man!

Do you think a 2630qm would bottleneck this gpu?

Sent from a Galaxy far far away

 

in BF4 i think it will bottleneck.

 

whoa... thats a very fast gpu... 8000+ in 3dmark 11'?? thats crazy.... combine it with a fast mobile cpu , even an old one like 920xm oced to 4 cores @ 3.5 and you get above 50fps in all current games on ultra...
damn if it only wasnt so expensive...

 

Here's stock Gpu and Cpu

 

Sorry, it's actually 849... I just did copy/paste from original and forgot to update.

Nice one WingNut! I've updated the original post.

 

I find it strange that stock vs stock on 3DMark11, the 780m kills the 7970m by 25% on gpu score (7938/6329), but only by 9.5% on FireStrike (5257/4800) and 8% on FireStrike Extreme (2412/2231). Using HT's numbers here vs my sig links, glad we don't play benchmarks. That OC you have there HT really makes the card shine, takes the advantage over stock 7970m to 26.7% on Firestrike, that's a 17.2% jump and I don't even think you're trying yet Keep em' coming.

 

advantage over the 7970m is way clearer in games, where the 780m reaches a plus of 30% at stock(!!!) clocks put a decent 15-20% oc on it and ull eat up the lastgen gpus like it was nothing...

That's the problem with synthetic benchmarks, they are a reasonable indicator of raw performance between cards but not always good at game performance differences.

I can't go any higher in overclock for two reasons:

(1) It's a review unit and not allowed to flash the BIOS
(2) System PSU is too weak to go any higher. I had to use my modded 240W PSU to make sure scores weren't limited by PSU.

 

Ht, notebookcheck.net mentioned that the stock 780m with the 4900 (or 4800 forgot which one they tested) seemed already limited by the 180w PSU under certain specific situations, would that be correct? They were mostly talking about i7 turbo boost not reaching the theoretical values.

 

That could be possible, yes. At stock conditions, in extreme situations the system may exceed the 180W the PSU can draw. I don't know why they wouldn't bump up to a larger PSU, because this will become problematic. I can see why MSI did what they did with their battery boost. To circumvent the 180W limit with the PSU's with the smaller connector.

 

I'll give AW this on the new line, looks like if you have a 770m or > on the R5, they set you up with a 240w PSU. Only the lowest cost config with a 765m nets a 180w PSU.


Ah HT, good to know you were being held back by things more-or-less out of your control, I'm sure we'll see some unrestricted numbers soon, thanks. Indeed, like I said, glad we don't play benchmarks.

 

[OT]

i know im probably gonna be bashed around for saying this, but....the m17x R5 actually looks really nice!!! way more subtle than previous models (at least for aw standards, that is) i like

[/OT]

 

Pft don't worry I think it looks better too.

Also it was going to take too long for the 3k so the meaker machine is under construction.

4930xm (unlocked voltage and multiplier) ~4.5ghz
1080p matte display
16gb samsung 30nm @ 2133 or 2400
512gb vector
780m 4gb

Will be time to get to work when this arrives lol.

 

damn you meaker!

sticking with MSI? or what kinda machine will that monster be? still looking forward to some insane scores from u tho

 

Yes sticking with msi, lots of goodies in the bios and the faster vram

 

Exactly. Time and time again, the disparity between synthetic bench results has proven fallicious when compared to actual gaming performance. What synthetics are good for is determining relative performance (and improvements from OC) on the same card you are using. More and more reviewers and serious enthusiasts are waking up to this. HardOCP's Bench Marking the Benchmarks article and testing philosophy is a good read here.

Further than just testing a game's FPS, one needs to evaluate the entire experience (smoothness of frames, image quality) to make a solid judgment on a card's performance. This has become even more clear this year with AMD's stutter/FPS cheating debacle in crossfire. Making a good "experiencial" evaluation like this is hard to do, however, which is why we continue to see simplistic 3DMark scores and FPS charts.

On the PSU topic, that's really disappointing Clevo (and MSI, Asus it would seem) was so shortsighted there -- they must have seen this limit being reached in their QC cycles. I guess it's not surprising Clevo ignored this considering the issues (which I personally observed) with using a single 300w PSU and an x7200.

 

Clevo have the 330w for the dual card machine now and asus have a 230w for their 780m model I believe.

 

Forum is a place where people talks and try to help each other... but here i know somebody who knows to be helpful to other but refuse to do it...
Try to guess who is he?

 

the msi 780m works in my m17x r4! benchmarks coming soon

 

Is that a hint to either get the G750 or go with a P37xSM (which I have on order) ?

 

Every machine has its pros and cons, I was just pointing to ones with stronger psus. Modders will make their own

 

I assume the notebook 320.18 drivers will be fine with my 780m? Wonder when official drivers will get released for this card

 

Sounds like Asus is going with a 230W PSU, best idea yet. MSI uses the "battery boost" approach, using the battery if the PSU isn't enough, which is really a band aid, but at laest it's something. I just don't find it acceptable that Clevo/Sager provide a powerful GPU like they do, but skimp on the PSU. It is fine for stock clocks, actually borderline in some games, but any amount of overclock can result in a power restriction. I can understand why they didn't do it from a financial perspective they'd have to change the connector and likely end up with a surplus of power supplies that they can't do anything with. But they could always use them for the less performance models and "upgrade" them from a 120W to a 180W PSU.

 

does someone have a link to working 320.18 drivers for the 780m? Cant install any driver, must needed a modded one.

 

There is a request thread of the nvidia forums right now to get the notebook gtx 780m added to the compatability list. I dont think the 320.18 will recognize the device yet. You can help speed this up by replying to this thread -> https://forums.geforce.com/default/topic/534575/geforce-drivers/official-nvidia-verde-notebook-gpu-driver-request-thread/.

Follow the instructions of the OP. You could look on dells site for nvidia drivers for the 700m series cards and try it. Or get them from clevo site under support. 311.27... on clevo site select the p150sm/p157sm model and select vga drivers

 

ok thanks, i just pulled the drivers for the 780m off msi site, will give those a try

edit: msi 780m drivers wont find compatible hardware either, hmm, this sucks
