Update: SOLVED! I cleaned up my bios settings(seems a lot of stuff got changed by something, not sure how, but lots was running in power saving mode) and upgraded to Windows 10. Just ran a test and got a 9540. Very happy with that for now. Thanks and happy bench-marking!

Hello All,

The Description says it. My 3Dmark v11 benchmark results seem really low to me for my build, I got a 4390 I believe(will get the official number when I'm not in the office). I'm also running Windows 7 Ultimate and have 8gb of ram. I can add more info if necessary. I compared to the standard marks, and an almost identical build got around 9700, main difference being running 8.1 versus 7. Appreciate anyone's help figuring this out.
 


Thanks for the response DonkeyOatie. Helped me confirm an issue and led to my eventual solving.
