*OFFICIAL* Alienware M18x Benchmark Thread - Part 2

[Mr. Fox]

Increasing my multiplier from 44x to 45x actually lowered my wPrime score by a fraction, so we can go with the previous post for the leader board.

Looks like 3rd place for SuperPI: 8.020 1M / 7.39.030 32M.

CPU temps are holding well, with the max reached of 91°C running 1024M wPrime bench. Idle temps are 65°C at CPU Freq 4673.84 (103.86 * 45). Thumbnails attached.

Crysis benchmarks are in the spoiler.

FINALLY a proper 2920xm has arrived!

Hey brother John , if you were referring to my post to Mr Fox , i wasnt aiming for stabilty but a constant or consistent speed , running 45 to 47 on the cores is overclocking yes ? ,for example if you drive a rally car so fast that you keep flying off at the bends , yes your speeds are higher but your overall time would be slower. the idea is to get the best score in benchmarking test and surely the more consistent speed you can keep the cpu at your times would be better so my aim was to get the best or highest speed i can and keep the cpu running at the highest ratio as i can , no point running at 48 if it throttles back every 10 seconds well thats what i find anyway your the man so any advise you can give me would be appreciated
Cheers

I had this discussion with residualvoltage about efficiency. If you can not gain at 47X then there is no need to run it, but in Brother Fox's case...He can in fact gain, with the right mixture.

I understand what you are saying, but he has been at this a whole 14 hours at best and has already caught and past some of the vets. So I'm going to have to say some of what he and I talked about....is actually working...( Not to mention a nice chip to work with as well). You too can go farther, bu you also have to be willing to try. .

[Mr. Fox]

Brother John, I probably would have struggled a long time at this without your help. I learned a lot from you man, and it's cool putting it to good use. +1 and thank you.

[johnksss]

No problem! And your numbers are looking outstanding!

I may just have to double up the cpu portion and just give points for the users highest rank in that category.

I may just have to double up the cpu portion and just give points for the users highest rank in that category.

I was going to suggest something similar to that. If users are in two categories (like I was with the old CPU and now the new CPU), record all their scores if they are in the top 5, but only give points to the places where they benefit from the higher ranking and ignore the others. Maybe that's the same thing as what you are referring to.

By recording the other scores without doubling up on points, it gives other users with the same hardware configuration something to aim for. In other words, a person could hold records for the same benchmark test in two categories, but only receive the points for the runs that place higher in rank and net more points.

What's up fellas, so I finally got my 2920xm installed. Still figuring out all the settings for it so these are my early runs so far, it looks like I still have some headroom with the CPU.

[johnksss]

What is your max voltage so far?

Nice scores by the way!

Very nice start. I guess you can change your sig now Joker.
