    Hi, what range of points are use to score with stock 6770m clocks on 3d mark vantage graphics test?

    Mine's always scores about 6080 points more or less, sometimes it reaches 6100 points but never 6300 as I have read here.

    I'm using the latest catalyst official driver 8.911.0.0, perhaps this is the "problem" which makes my card slower.

    For the GPU I get around 6100 points, if u wanna reach 6300 you will probably need to overclock it

    i had exact question as yours

    my stock 6770m with leshcat driver always scores about 5980
    tried DNA driver it gets 5950

    and ive read that stock driver is supposed to score about 6300 accoroding to this forum threads.

    so i guess my card is a bit slower than average?

    it used to bother me alot but now i dont mind i mean
    300 points difference wouldnt make that much difference in actual gaming.

    i hope so. lol

    Those test were passed with 11.11 official ati drivers. Graphics points are more or less the same as you.

    Now, i have installed 11.9 drivers because of BF3 issues, and vantage graphics points never reaches 5400........

    I would like to install DNA drivers, i think performance would be better with them. But i dont know how to install them...

    Just tested with 11.11b and battlefield still having the same issues. Crashes every 5-10 min, what about you, DJsweetbass?

    Before testing with 11.11b, i have installed 11.12 amd official drivers but it is just the same 11.11/ 8.911.1.0 driver........ !

    thats a great score for being official drivers O.O

    Oh and I wish I could help but I dont play bf3, the games I play the most are starcraft 2, skyrim, dead island, dirt 3, gta 4, just cause 2, and the only game that rarely crashes is skyrim, but its probably coz I have installed some mods xD

    have u checked this ?
    http://forum.notebookreview.com/hp-pavilion-notebooks/620195-6770m-battlefield-3-issues.html

    Yes, I have checked it. It says that bf3 only runs with 11.9 or DNA drivers, but 11.9 performance is crappy and I don't know how to install DNA drivers... Any idea of installing DNA?

    As I have said before, I have installed 11.12 newest drivers but gpu-z and others already say that I have the 11.11 old one... In fact, the 11.12 installer said that it was going to be installed the 8.911.1 one... not the new 8.920.1 one... Happening to me the same thing with the 11.11b, still appearing 11.11 and 8.911.1...

    Why?

    Hmm, I remember I tried to install DNA drivers but I was only able to install this one

    DNA-AMD GFX 11.8.3-prev | Do Not Argue

    which worked pretty well, but then I installed the drivers that I mentioned earlier, performance is about the same.

    but as I said the DNA 11.10.1-prev2 didnt work for me :(

    I remember reading somewhere that before install u have to change some settings when turning the computer on or something like that..

    You need to install ReadyDriver Plus or disable Force Driver Signature Enforcement (by spamming F8 after POST) on startup to use DNA driver... altho DNA 11.8.3 and DNA 12.1.1 don't need it.

    ^ Yeah, pretty stable for me but it used the old CCC instead of the new CCC with Application Profile that came with 12.x preview driver.
