P150EM /w GTX 680M - Owners have any problems?

I'm seriously considering replacing my 7970m with a 680m.
The Enduro issue along with serveral other driver issues are driving my nuts with the 7970m.
I had contacted my reseller and they said they will do the replacement in 1 business day, and some additional fee (nevermind that - money isn't an issue here).

My question is:
Does the 680m work flawlessly on the P150EM?
I had a 675m in this P150EM just before the 7970m, and it did work flawlessly, so I'm hoping the 680m will also work flawless too.
Eg. GPU usage at 99% in all games? No performance issues? Etc.

 

So far it's flawless. Cool and great performance.

 

I can vouch for my 680m as well works flawlessly, no driver problems and no hassle with it at all and so far overclocks pretty well. The only problem if theres any is that you can't enable 3D with it until the official driver supports come out.. or at least I can't with mine.

 

I did the move, I hold the top graphics score in the world.

 

Love my 680M. It just works as advertised.

If money isn't an issue and gaming is your number 1 priority, it's a no brainer (at the moment).

 

It is quite good, even in a MSI Barebone.

 

Only very few games refuse to run on GTX680M (Final Fantasy XIV makes nvidia driver crash), but I'm sure it'll be fixed with a driver update.

 

It is quite good, even in a MSI Barebone.

Both 680M and 7970M perform better in 3dmark11 in the Clevo barebones - graphics score are ridiculously higher than Dell and MSI's - could you run a Vantage and possibly Unigine 3.0 (Full hd and then select your preset, I'll use the same) or any other games benchmarks? @ 1037/2550 ?
Also, by checking at your scores, the combined score seems way too low, as soon as you overvolt.

 

GTX680M's GPGPU performance is worse than HD7970M, other than that everything is fine

 

congrats Meaker.
im getting the 3720QM soon so will be interesting to see what score i get.

could someone run 3dmark06 and vantage please so i can get an idea of what to expect.
with a 260GTX im getting 10,177 and P4516 at the moment.

 

Look at this:
Meaker's @ 1037/2575
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680M video card benchmark result - Intel Core i7-3610QM Processor,CLEVO P15xEMx score: P8289 3DMarks
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680M video card benchmark result - Intel Core i7-3610QM Processor,CLEVO P15xEMx score: P25420 3DMarks

Mine @ 1037/2550
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680M video card benchmark result - Genuine Intel(R) CPU @ 2.70GHz,Micro-Star International Co., Ltd. MS-1762 score: P7840 3DMarks


The gap between the graphics score and combined is h u g e@11 - the Vantage GPU score looks more sensible.

Same thing is happening with the 7970M in the EM's, they can reach 7000 Graphics score @11 only at 1000/1550 while Alienware users has to push over 1030/1040 to get such a score And the Combined score is low.

Strange

 

Your physic score is 526 points higher than Meaker's, probably due to a stronger CPU, the combined test is testing how well both the CPU and GPU work together, also included GPGPU tests .

Meaker is using 3610QM while yours is using 3820QM. But I have to agree with you that Clevo's graphic score seems to score higher than other systems.

 

Yeah, based on the scores I`ve seen so far, even with 771MHz as stock frequency with stock vbios, MSI still score around 5800 in GPU score with 3DMark11. While Clevo score bit over 6000 at 719MHz, so there is definately a difference between MSI and Clevo 680Ms.

What I don`t know, perhaps the cooling?

 

Nope nothing about cooling: I just played BF3 @ 1037/2500 for 35min, Caspian and Metro, 80°C max GPU temps so cooling is great.

 

Thanks a lot for the feedback.
Seems like it indeed is a no brainer.
I'm going for the 680m then.
