Higher core clock and got a graphics score of 10670... i just go backwards if i go any higher than 1240 :mad: looks like i reached the limit. Really wanted to beat that 670 as well :p

mwhaaa ;)

3rd in the gpu chart, proper happy with my little 670. It really has nothing else left to give with current drivers/voltage. I might give it another whirl with that 1.212v BIOS once the weather takes a dip and I can get hold of an uber house fan or AC unit I can mount to the side of the case lol

are you hitting 70c+ on the windforce?

Just going to do a little more memory tweaking and see what timings give what gains in 3dMark11.

Disabling Aero give any gains?

na about 67c with 100% fan, I use the old windows xp classic theme :D

My airflow is a bit shoddy though, really could do with a new case. Holes in it with pieces of wood holding it up lol

Haha, messy! Never been much of a fan of the Antec (presume that is along the lines of a 900?) cases.

TRFC down to 114, tried 96 but insta-failed on me, gained around 40-50 points on physics, though that's quite irrelevant.

I'm working only on physics at the moment, as I don't want my GPU to pop due to air cooling (despite staying under 65c @ 100%). So heavier GPU clocks are off limits at the moment. Have a hunch I may be able to edge ~12500 on physics, which isn't bad considering thats not too far away from those SB-E chips with 4 more threads.

Btw, are you nvidia guys using the driver setting performance, quality or balanced?

Haha, I'll hold off on hex core and go straight to oct core next year ;)

Already got the score up to ~12160 purely on memory adjustments, still have another 130mhz or so to squeeze out of the CPU before I enter silly volts territory. Any higher on the memory speed and I'm going to have to change to the 1.67 strap, which I don't really want to do as it involves dropping the base to around 90mhz. Next step up on current strap is 2500mhz, may give it a whirl, it at least drops my base back down to 100. Can't wait to see what utterly pointless timings my motherboard decides to give the system for that speed :p

Edit: scratch the 2500mhz plan, forgot I only get 18.66 then 21.33 x memory multipliers, next step takes me to 2666mhz (or something along those lines) probably requiring voltages I'm not willing to pump through them.

£1500 to get the same config, £1580 if you include the modded PSU for extreme overclocking.

Battery life is around 3 hours, temps at stock are in the 60s, overclocked at that level they are up in the 80s (with the back off and a cooling pad), its pretty loud but not too loud for headphones to block out or a proper set of speakers.

Weight is 3.2kg, the modded PSU is 1.3kg lol.

If you just wanted to run it at mostly stock (the kind of clock that takes 30 seconds to download the program and set) then its amazingly cool and quiet.

I have flashed the P170EM bios to unlock XTU, used thaiphoon burner to edit my ram timings, soldered on the correct connector to a 230W Asus PSU to get more power and flashed a custom bios onto the graphics card to raise the voltage and overclocking.

Still can't quite match my old graphics score *shrugs* not sure why.

That takes you past my 680 score...Sweet laptop and Battery life is?
