what is your M15X system rating

So I just got my M15X, and thought it might be fun if everyone post your M15X system rating alone with the Spec.
yea, I know, the rating doesnt really mean anything
so here is mine

processor----------------------6.7
Core i5 430M
Memory------------------------6.7
6GB
Graphic------------------------6.7
ATI 5730
gaming graphic-----------------6.7
1920x1080
hard disk-----------------------5.9
250GB 7K2 RPM

upgrade to a intel SSD
hard disk-----------------------7.5


check out M11X and M17X rating too!

ppl with M11X kind pissed when I ask them for M11X rating

processor----------------------6.9
Memory------------------------6.9
Graphic------------------------7.2
gaming graphic-----------------7.2
hard disk-----------------------5.9

System is in my sig.
If you switch for an SSD, you may see the score going above 7.

 

Processor----------------------7.1
Memory------------------------7.4
Graphic------------------------7.2
gaming graphic-----------------7.2
hard disk-----------------------5.9

That's weird, Phoestre you have 8GB dont you? Is it testing it on the timings/speed?

Damn the HDD really kills you. Time to start saving up for a SSD.

 

Hey yes you are correct about your question. Mobile i7 quads support 1333mhz while mobile i7 duals support 1066mhz. Thats the reason of 6.9-7.4

 

Processor----------------------7.2
Memory------------------------7.5
Graphic------------------------7.2
gaming graphic-----------------7.2
hard disk-----------------------5.9

 

Processor: 7.1
Memory: 7.4
Graphics (both Gaming and normal): 6.8 (As I have a 260M)
Hard disk: 5.9

If i got an HD5850 and an SSD my minimum would be 7.1 :/

 

Processor-----------------------7.2
Memory-------------------------7.4
Graphic-------------------------7.2
Gaming graphic----------------7.2
Hard disk-----------------------5.9

 

So all quads get the same point? interesting :S

 

Processor-----------------------7.4
Memory-------------------------7.5
Graphic-------------------------7.2
Gaming graphic----------------7.2
Hard disk-----------------------7.2

strange my hard disk used to be 7.7 looks like it dropped. this is with 5850

 

this was with 5870

 

everyone has nice scores beside mine...(lower than all of you )
start wondering if I got a good deal or not.
just purchased mine for $900+tax...

 

Processor----------------------7.2
Memory------------------------7.4
Graphic------------------------7.2
gaming graphic-----------------7.2
hard disk-----------------------6.8

If you have an SSD you shouldn't not be getting 5.9

 

Showoff.

Hey Inap I though 920xm is suppose to be 7.3?

 

why upgrade the graphic card increase the score for had disk transfer rate???

 

yes i was,lolz

it has always been 7.4 for me.

the graphic card does not increase the transfer rate for the hard disk. i have an ssd that way its scoring higher then other people with reg. hdd.

 

strange i just switched to the dell driver and my ssd score drop to 5.9, gonna check crystal disk mark.

 

Dude my HDD gets 5.9 lol

 

Yea but usually intel ssd are score from 7.7 to 7.8. So 5.9 is not normal.

 

i know it so strange, but things look good with crystal disk mark. so i'm not worried about the wei score.

 

Highest is 7.4 and lowest is 5.9 for me. Seems like most of us have the same hard disk.

 

That just happens sometimes when a driver or component gets changed. It will correct itself.

 

yeah thanks rev. yeah not too worried about it atm. my ssd seem to be working fine so not a big deal.

 

7.1 CPU
7.3 RAM
7.3 GFX
7.3 Gaming GFX
5.9 HDD

Processor - 7.2

Primary hard disk - 5.9

Sig for specs.

 

I guess current M15X has not component that will max any single score of 7.9
I wonder if M17X could max any score...

 

Just updated mine...

Strange.. my Samsung SSD that came with my M15X originally scored a 7.0.. It now shows the following:

Processor .. 7.2
Memory .. 7.3
Graphics .. 6.8
Gaming Graphics .. 6.8
Hard Disk .. 5.9??


Edit: I do have the A07 bios.

 

Processor - 7.0
Memory - 7.4
Graphics - 6.8
Gaming Graphics - 6.8
Hard Disk - 5.9

Hard disk is really the bottleneck for most of the people over here.
512GB SSD for less than $200 will be a dream come true.

 

250GB SSD for less than $200 would be a dream come true. (good performing one, I might add)

 

Processor - 7.0
Memory - 7.4
Graphics - 7.3
Gaming Graphics - 7.3
Hard Disk - 5.9


i have the a07 bios and a SSD on the way so it will be interesting to see how the SSD behaves with the newer bios which i heard is not good right now.

 

Do you have TRIM enabled? Tried running GC (Garbage Collection)?

 

Processor = 7.2
Memory = 7.4
Graphics = 6.7
Gaming Graphics = 6.7
Hard Disk = 5.9

And I have the following:

CPU = i7 Q840 @ 1.87Ghz
RAM = 6GB
GPU = Radeon 5850
HDD = 500GB 7.2k
Battery = 9 Cell

I have had a look on these forums and I can see that the graphics score for a 5850 should be about 7.3 to 7.4. I'm currently using the modified 10.6 drivers in the sticky of this forum. Ideas?

 

Run 3Dmark vantage @ stock and tell us whatcha see. I usually get 7.2, but I OCed it to 800/1100 when I ran the WEI benchie.

 

I ran 3D Mark Vantage on all of it's stock settings and I get a score of P3334 3DMarks (CPU Score of 12425 & Graphics score of 2680)....I'm assuming that's not good at all considering that all due the test, it was lagging hardcore.

 

Crikeys, yeh that is a super low score. Something is definitely wrong there. With those specs you should at least be getting over 10k easy. Hmmmssss......

Do you play any games? How do they run? The graphics card score in Vantage seems to be super super LOW.

 

Yeah, well, originally I was getting all of these graphics corruptions on my card but then a Dell/Alienware tech came by today and replaced my old, faulty card, with a new 5850 so something there may have gone weird I don't know?

 

Ahh i see i see, perhaps you could try Dells latest ATI beta drivers version 10.8. See how that goes. Hopefully some improvement. Cheers.

Dell - Support

 

Be sure that PowerPlay is enabled in CCC and set to High Performance when plugged in. Vantage indicates that the CPU is operating normally, but the graphics system is hobbled, most probably by reduced clocks. PowerPlay is the most likely culprit.

 

Yeah, PowerPlay is most certainly enabled and set to High Performance when plugged in. I checked that a few times. I am now downloading the new beta drivers from Dell so will see if that improves anything. Should be done in a few mins...

 

I highly doubt it is powerplay. I have powerplay enabled and I still get 9600s to 9700s OCed and also, I don't think it would make that much of difference. I think you may have gotten a faulty card and should be making a call to DELL.

 

Oh man, that's not what I want to hear...after them already replacing one faulty card...how am I going to explain this one to them in that case?

 

PowerPlay is supposed to be enabled. That's what let's the clocks spin up to 3d levels from the 100/150 idle settings. If it's not enabled, they can't uptick, leaving you with low clocks and low scores. If disabled at startup, it usually dumps you into 300/400 and leaves you there, though that can be varied in the vbios.

 

Oh I always thought they messed stuff up. I dunno where I got the misconception lol.

 

Nobody is born knowing this stuff. All of us learn as we go along.

 

Ok, so I installed the beta driver and when trying to run the WEI test, I get the following message:

"The Windows Experience Index for your system could not be computed.

Could not measure storage performance.
Unable to start the kernel logger. The logger is in use by another application. Please stop the kernel logger and try again."

I have no idea what this message is on about...

EDIT: I think I'm going to just leave this until I wake up in the morning. Might just try restoring the notebook back to factory and see what happens.

 

Uhhh. I think you should call dell. I got the beta driver and a 5850, nothing like that happened during any of my WEI tests.
