What's your Passmark Performance Test Score

[Boozad]

I will at some point Doug, I've just got to read up on it and learn as I have no idea what I'm doing as it stands!

Yeah I've got to look into that first, I still have my cherry to pop when it comes to CPU overclocking.

Well pop it, OCing is fun

You tell him Doug.

Vague comments really don't help newbies
Otherwise just pop up a beer tab

The saying is, you are good until you see smoke Take your time Gav and you will be fine. Look forward to seeing you in the 5ghz club

Here's my laptop's Passmark score.
Specs:
i7 3820QM - 3.7ghz
8gb RAM(ordered 16gb, but had a bad stick, waiting replacement)
250gb Samsung 840 Evo mSATA SSD
750gb Storage drive
Nvidia GTX 660m

I think it's pretty decent for a laptop. No where near my #5 ranked Desktop.(I'm coming back for my #4 spot) :devil:

Anyways... Passmark Score: 3968.1

No disrespect, but wouldn't I be #25 instead of 26?

I have a few more things to tweak and my score, may go up, but then again, it might not.

Thanks

 

[Dude]

Apologies, I fixed it

Did some tweaking and managed to raise my score some. Enough to go up 1 place at least on the board. I love this laptop now. If anyone has any suggestions on how I can get more out of this laptop, it would be greatly appreciated. I can't overclock the processor, so the i7 3820QM is stuck at 3.7ghz for two cores and 3.5ghz while using all 4. The GTX 660M on the other hand comes stock ta 850mhz/5000mhz and I have it running at 1166mhz/6550mhz stable.

Anyways, here's my new score.

Passmark Score - 4089.5

I know I can get some more out of this bad boy.

I agree pretty cool for a laptop

 

[Dude]

Good bump SikMindZ, Looking good Konstabtinov scores updated

Apologies, I fixed it

Doug can only count to 21

Lol, yep when I take off my shoes I can get to twenty

Depending on how many beers are on the wall sometimes I can't get past 7

Your score seems low for your system specs. I think your ram is giving you a bottleneck. That much processing power is being limited. Your cpu trumps my 4770k and the 780 should be able to hang with my 970's for the 2d/3d on this benchmark. But anyways, great score and a very nice gaming rig you have there. Best of luck to you.

Nah, my memory does pretty well. The "bottleneck" is in my gpu, can't push it very far OC-wise.

Based on the picture you sent, you could get a lot more out of that card. First increase the power limit % to max, provided your power supply can take it, and your's definitely can. The card won't pull anymore than it actually needs. Second, you could probably manage +200-300 on your memory, which would in turn give you +400-600 actual speed increase. Third, the 780 can handle added voltage very well, so I'd boost that up by 0.50 to start and then in increments of no more than 0.25 thereafter, that way you can see if it's the voltage or the actual core clock that is making the card freeze/display driver stop when you start increasing the core(after you increase core(in small increments of course), if it freezes/hangs, try adding 0.25 more voltage and if that fixes it, you'll know you have more headroom for OC'ing, provided your still within safe temps). But anyways, with a healthy 0.50 mv added, you could definitely get more out of the core clock. I don't know first hand how much is the upper limit when it comes to voltage for the 780, I'd ask someone else what the "max" is, but everything I've suggested is solid. If you already knew all this, I apologize. If you didn't, it's a good start to a fun world of tweaking for that extra point or two. :devil:

P.S.
I don't know why I suggested memory before, I completely forgot about the quad channel memory with your processor. But either way, going to 2400mhz would definitely increase your score. As far as real world performance though, it might not be worth it.
