    For the Bench Mark Called "First Strike" My Score was : 42
    Compared to a High End Gamer of: 9131.
    This was using Nvidia Geforce GTX 765M Exclusively
    I just purchased this unit...and it might be going back - So far I have not been impressed with this laptop-not to mention how HORRID Windows 8 is.
    Anyone else run 3DMark 2013?

    Something has to be wrong with that. The Blade isn't a powerhouse but should get by gaming wise.

    Custom install, then select to clean install these: Drivers | GeForce
    then in the NVidia control panel 3D settings set it to NVidia only.

    3DMark is funny with optimus. Thats actually the CPU's gpu. Put yourself in "High Performance" in the power options and run it again. In windows 8.1 I get just about 3k (overclocked) which is a little less than I'd get in Windows 8 for whatever reason. I don't have problems with games (or 3Dmark11) or anything its just that one benchmark.
