Maybe I should actually run the benchmark, huh...
considering when I ran the old benchmark after I had been playing and got like a 700... haha.
(Yeah I'll totally update my crap laptop. Just give me the money.)
I ran twice once maximum Dx9 and once Dx11.
I got 3735 and 2870 respectively, all on laptop hardware i7-4710MQ and Nvidia GTX 765m
Also I did one run on my HDD and one on my SSD (both Dx11) HDD load times were over 70s and SSD they were 49.25s, but the score didn't change.
Its only gimpped if your running 4k resolutions. Otherwise its fine, as the benchmarks will show ya
Your score was that high because thats a high end graphic card. Yes its true the CPU does do some of the work in 3D games,, but most is done by the GPU.
Well, I just updated my drivers (Which were more than 8 months old) and the results are quite different now.

Almost "Extremely High Performance", but I'm still not pleased. >8(
I just barely got 5000 for Dx9. My computer is well over 5 years old now (actually nearing it's 10th year soon, I believe), I don't think it would handle Dx11 very well and I'm too scared to try.
6901. I'm happy with it.

My lappy runs pretty crappy on max settings @ 1080P.

Tweaking a few things (Mostly lowering AO and Shadows) helps tremendously though.
