Welcome to Seven Forums heatman323.

All depends on what components are hiding in your laptop.
For an old Core2 it's blazing fantastic, for a new Ivy Bridge i7 it maybe could be better, depends.

Give us your system specs, and we'll give you an informed answer.

Done, thanks for the reminder. I was also going to post a screenie, when I got a blue screen running the winsat mem. Guess my laptop's got some heavy internal problems.

I'm betting your laptop is the Lenovo Y580 with Core i7-3610QM and Nvidia GTX 660M. If you are getting blue screens on winsat mem, try to test your RAM with Memtest86+. This gives you an idea if your RAM is perfectly seated and working optimally.

RAM - Test with Memtest86+

If you get errors, try to open the laptop and reseat the RAM modules. If you still get errors, then get a replacement if it's still under warranty, but never tell Lenovo that you opened your laptop.

Oops, I see that you have updated your system specs. Ignore my previous post that says that I bet your laptop is the Y580.

Welcome heatman323

I think you should do a bit better in winsat too, maybe around the 28,000+ range. You shouldn't BSOD running winsat though.
Maybe try posting in our Crashes and Debugging forums.

@theveterans
Yes, it is. Hmm, the opening part. Well frankly I dont know jack about hardwares and the like, I'll just probably end up dissecting my poor laptop lol

@Britton
Is there any way to improve it to 28k mbps? I'll try to post in that section, thanks for the suggestion

You may have to manually set your RAM parameters in your BIOS to the voltage/timings on their labels. your specs say frequency 79?

theveterans · 10 Oct 2012

Being a laptop that isn't custom build, I don't think heatman323 can change any parameters from the BIOS aside from boot order.

D'oh! That's is likely right, Sorry.
