This is also on a Custom VCurve on the GPU via MSI After Burner

I have also updated Post #290 with Stock Clocks and settings with 2933MT/s results too

@FerrariVie Time to update the table.

Is it a manual OC you have on the CPU? For pushing the OC the CPU score seems a little low to me, not much... but I think there's more in it. I wouldn't push the GPU any further though and just be aware that overclocking the GPU voids your warranty.

Is this question for me to answer if so, more then welcome to answer it in a Private Message as not to go off topic and will gladly explain everything thought process. As for CPU its a Non K SKU so no overclocking can be done its purely down to GPU.

Ahh yes, of course it is. It's strange that other results have the clock speed higher. Not sure how they are managing it :D

Ranks updated, finally 😅

Smashing bud, not sure if the Benchmark runs i did stock with 2133MT/s Single & Dual Channel, 2666MT/s Dual Channel & 2933MT/s Dual Channel is of any use its in post #290.

Also noticed you put +235 is an above stock or offset set? as I was on V-Curve on core and +185 on vram.

It's whatever I can see on the benchmark, which in this case is the max frequency difference compared to the stock run (either yours or someone else's with a similar build).

Ah ok, just thought i'd mention it that all just incase, after all someone might think its an Offset and then enter it in and wonder why it doesn't run the benchmarks without crashing the driver or the benchmark software or both.

Rank updated, thanks for taking the time to run the benchmarks and share your results! Amazing CPU score, but that surely runs hot 🌶️
Thank you. I had the laptop on a cooling stand and the internal fans forced to maximum to get through the benchmark. The temps ramp up too fast for the fans to spin up appropriately. I have now limited the processor to 65w in eco mode which runs much cooler and with minimal performance impact in my eyes: https://www.3dmark.com/3dm/75012255?

Have had a 14 core Intel Defiance+3070Ti a few weeks now but I haven't had time to try it with any games. Figured I should at least quickly test it to make sure it's as good as I hoped.


Quite happy with this. Can confirm I had left everything stock and just set "performance" mode in control centre.

Also if it's of interest, I took separate note of my temps while it was running (I have the laptop on a fanless cooling pad to raise it)
Max/Avg temp (as reported by HWinfo):
CPU: 100c/61c
GPU: 86c/50c
GPU Hotpot: 105c/60c

That's just with the standard thermal paste though, going to repaste with Noctua at some point and expect those numbers to drop signifcantly.

edit: Actually, seeing that 100c from HWinfo, I suspect there was some throttling due to temps. Going to have to remember to try again when I get around to repasting.

Main specs:
Chassis & Display Defiance Series: 17.3" Matte, Full HD, 144Hz, Pantone Validated 72% NTSC, LED Widescreen (1920x1080)
Processor (CPU) Intel® Core™ i7 14 Core Processor 12700H (2.3GHz, 4.7GHz Turbo)
Memory (RAM) 16GB Corsair 3200MHz SODIMM DDR4 (2 x 8GB)
Graphics Card NVIDIA® GeForce® RTX 3070 Ti - 8.0GB GDDR6 Video RAM - DirectX® 12.1

That is reasonable, in my opinion. Your CPU is quite more powerful than your GPU, so it makes sense to tune it accordingly to your usage. I've done the same with mine, even though I don't have eco mode on my CPU and ended up using manual OC which worked amazing.

Thanks for sharing your results, will update the rank shortly. Just one thing I noticed: Have you updated your Nvidia drivers? I think you probably doesn't have a version that 3DMark is able to recognize, so my guess is that it might be a bit old (or even a beta version?).

Regarding repasting, my own experience was that the GPU temperatures decreased quite a bit (around 5 degrees), but there was no significant CPU improvements. But your results may vary depending on how well PCS applied the paste to your CPU (mine seemed good enough). I've used Noctua HT-N2, by the way.

So, as i was extremely pleased with PCS, and as one of my sister was pleased with her destian, my other sister buy one too
This time, it's a 5600x cpu paired with a 3060 gpu :

https://www.3dmark.com/3dm/75411181

the laptop was up to date and i did the benchmark with the performance mode and the fan running at full speed
And to be honest, if the score look not too bad, the temperature look kinda hot ...

Definitely up to date, I've been checking the drivers every day for both GPU and CPU since both of them get crazy temps under any kind of load are bugging me. I figured 3dmark just hasn't added the new chip's drivers to their list yet.

I since repasted with HT-N1 but the CPU didn't like it, seemed to have poor spread (apparently that paste can't handle really high temps?), had no change vs the stock mess. GPU dropped a bit though and I did get a bit better score after the repaste.

Pasted again today with Prolimatech Px-3 and the cpu droped a few degrees and got the best score so far:
