[StamatisX]

OK forum there you go:

How to submit your scores

1. Make a post in this thread that will contain a screenshot, provide a link or your results if it is a 3DMark Vantage/11/06 run and post anything else you feel like mentioning for that particular run, i.e ambient temperatures, cooling method, etc...

2. Go to Forms and locate your laptop and then click on the benchmark you want to submit your results

3. Complete the form. The last question of the form will ask you to submit the link of either your post or the link of the screenshot you took (i.e [ URL]M17x-R2 benchmarking )

Note: You must type those tags (don't copy-paste them from this post, must be in capital letters, no spaces,) like the example above in order for the link to be clickable.

In case you want to edit or delete your submission or need assistance on how to submit your score check the guide here

Hi all

wanted to post this here, my 3dmark Vantage run

23834 global

25589 GPU score

Damn. Hell of a score man. This is on 5870's right? Sorry, the pic is blurry on ForumRunner for some reason.

[StamatisX]

@bifnewman only 6970Ms+ can do that

[Guest bifnewman]

@bifnewman only 6970Ms+ can do that

lol yeah. those are some monster scores.

[CptXabaras]

Yup 6970's in crossfire. Now i feel the R2 the way it was supposed to be xD

[StamatisX]

@CptXabaras could you run a 3DMark 11?

[Guest bifnewman]

6990M's looking sexy. $825 for a crossfire configuration. Apparently the TDP is 100W. How would they do in the M17x R2?

[StamatisX]

That's a really good question

[CptXabaras]

@CptXabaras could you run a 3DMark 11?

Here is my last run, i'll give it a better shot as soon as i can

P6996

7228 GPU score

[StamatisX]

wow so close to hit 7K!

[CptXabaras]

Yes, i didn't touch anything on CCC, it was all set to high quality and not on performance.

Hold on, i'll give it a shot now, time to flash the cards at stock voltage (i use them 715/1000 0.96V daily )

[StamatisX]

Really! nice, put everything to performance, can't wait to see the score jumping to the roof...

[CptXabaras]

wow... this sounds a R2 record

P7546

920xm @24x133 97tdp, could have pushed harder but the psu could have tripped thus screwing the final score

8117 on GPU score is really nice

[StamatisX]

no need to say anything, +rep!

I guess it is time to update the R2's 3DMark11 benchmarking section with your score The first position there is waiting for you

[StamatisX]

At this point I wait for @DR650SE 's response to your scores... he has to update his scores to the benchmarking section as well. After that we will have a clearer picture

uh! i'm waiting for that too!!! XD

[StamatisX]

The ranking so far for the R2 is this:

Vantage

3DMark 11

[DR650SE]

Yea, as soon as I can have regualr internet access, I will definately be updating. I also was walking through the grocery store yesterday and noticed, they sell dry ice for $1.09/lb. I'm getting in on that as soon as I get my 6970's back. I just need to insulate the cards pretty well. Thinking I may just coat them in gummy art eraser to prevent any moisture build up.

[svl7]

Oh wish I had a store which sells dice just around the corner... I always have to take the train for about 40 min per way... and it costs more, lol.

Is there enough space beneath the heatsink for insulating the cards? Or do you have two pots?

[DR650SE]

Only one pot. Be nice if I had two. I normally just put the dice straight on the heatsink. Bit i tjonk that is what killed a 5870. Moisture.

In other news, I have a pair of 6990s on the way. I also have a second psu in my possession. Just waiting for aarpcard testing of his adaptor and ill be doing the same. Gotta find a way for the system to share the power load.

[StamatisX]

Damn that's nice! 6990s I am really interested about the PSU adapter as well. I was thinking to make one myself but have to find the appropriate connectors first... Maybe I should open a new thread so we can further look into it.

[DR650SE]

Yea, it'll be a lot of fun. Aarpcard made one but spliced into one psu to adapt the connector. I want to did a way to make one so no splicing is necessary. Maybe then resistance will remain uniform across both psu's.

Thats awesome DR650SE cant wait to see diced dual 6990M! Conrgats thats awesome. BTW the 2920xm beat your wprime 8thread 1024m at 186.2 seconds see M18x bench thread. I messed my pants on that run lol just joking.

[DR650SE]

@mw86 Thats awesome, congrats. That chip must have been cooking!

I can't wait to get the 6990s, just need to figure out some PSU stuff now.

Attaching some benches to participate in the benching thingy
