    How's this 3DMark Vantage score?

    Maybe you should overclock the memory? You have a 14,873 GPU score at 800Mhz core and stock memory clock. People are getting close to 16,000:

    880 core/1250 memory - P15916
    840/1080 - P15866

    Funny that I was overclocking and benching my 4870 desktop card today. I got around P10,300 in 3DMark Vantage. How times change...

    I'll give that a try. I just got the laptop yesterday and spent the greater part of the day downloading and installing loads of stuff.

    It seems my 2720 ES performs slightly better than your 2760 Yiddo :p Prob because of the additionnal 2MB cache.

    Vantage is sensitive very much to GPU mem clocks, I can tell with the 580M as increasing by 20Mhz gives about +40+50points on Vantage but temps go up therefore.
    From 2670qm to 2820qm, there won't be much difference on the global Vantage score as these CPU are very close performance wise.
    2860qm and XM gives slightly more boost.

    :) Do so and rerun dad, can't wait to see your new b3ncH sc0r3s :D

    ES SPecial version of course, I am not paying full price for something I can have much cheaper and performs even/better if you see what I mean...can't waste my money like this.. Life is so expensive nowadays :p
    Was't just tryin to irritate you haha, so don't be upset! All's fair in love and war (not sure that makes much sense in english though)

    Selgot,
    In Nvidia controls panel, set Processor PhysiX to Autoselection (advised), I assume it's not.

    Blah blah blah when I get home I will happily rerun them and shut you up.

    P.s You still think your 2720QM is the only 8mb cache version on the planet>? Some people really are special :D

    Cant wait ;) Make sure all your tweaks are done please.

    Oh did you just figure that there were 8mb 2720 cpu ? Well done ! You still amaze me because it wasn't shown in your provided link though.

    Oh and I'm not dreaming, I think you are :(

    Can I join the benchmark goodness as well? :)
    Btw the latest update of vantage isn't supposed to kill physix gpu support to even the benchmark scores?
    I recall using disable ppu/enable ppu settings with the same score, while vantage 1.0 had quite a boost with ppu enabled.

    I think so, I no longer have to disable GPU PhysX like I did with the early versions of Vantage to get a proper score.

    Probably yes.
    Anyway for the sake of our gentlemans here, ive tested with both PPU enabled and ppu disabled.

    Heres the scores:

    PPU ENABLED
    [​IMG]

    PPU DISABLED
    [​IMG]

    Note that beside the gpu clocks, which are 740/1920, theres ThrottleStop running AND core parking disabled.

    I have it set to 100% in the Power settings. Not sure what core parking is, however.

    If you google core parking it will explain how to disable it, its just a feature when the CPU is in idle but sometimes can have a detrimental effect on performance or did with my benchmark results.

    These CPU's are affected by heat and load so you might see lower results depending on your temperatures, I notice if my heating is on my clocks will drop to 2.6ghz at full load but if my room is cool it sticks around 3ghz. The idea is to benchmark at its coolest if you intend to get maximum results.

    Do you have the latest version of Vantage?

    That CPU score is higher than the best consumer Desktop CPU's:

    yea, Selgot. There is no way that your CPU score is legit.

    I wonder what the P stands for? Also, should I have a noticeable increase in score after my GPU/CPU "sets"? I ticked the box for aftermarket thermal paste... I assume if not for performance then perhaps life cycle increases with better cooling.

    The "P" stands for "Performance".

    LOL! If you have a laptop that can't even hit 20k stock, then it shouldn't be assocaited with "performance". ;)
