What exactly are you benching?

It's a Sager NP8150 laptop with a GTX 580m and a 2670QM processor.
 
I made some good headway on the GPU overclock with a core voltage bump, but still don't feel very confident.

To make serious head way you will need an extreme cpu.
Not sure how good the sager version of the 580m is, but you need to be running .92V.

where do you have your scores at??

Yeah, I went into despair when I saw your score.

Yeah, .92v really opened the card up.  I couldn't find the end of its overclocking headroom before hitting 95c; and terminated it.  I was over 850Mhz core.  I was thinking I would just put my laptop in the window or on top of an A/C outlet and let it go all out.

I have no scores anywhere.

Then how can I help you if you don't post your scores?
 
And yes, the A/C will help do wonders, but the 580M stays pretty cool during serious benching.
 
What is your highest over clock?
What kind of scores do you have?

I have not benchmarked my laptop at all yet -- net even at stock speeds.  I simply tried overclocking the GPU as much as I could for trial purposes.  I have not had time to do anything further.

That was just a quick run.  Haven't even tried to O/C the CPU or tweak the operating system.

I'm going to focus instead on breaking some records for old video cards with my tech bench running a 2600K @ 5 GHz.

Those scores look pretty good.

I did that with my setup as well. Got a lot of nice points too.
