I've tried to digest what is being said here. I'm not sure I did so. All I know is my M18x is spanking a lot of desktops on HWBOT and it's insane that any laptop is capable of achieving results like this. Regardless of how it stacks up against the Titan, 670, 680, 7970, or whatever else, the results are undeniably amazing for a laptop running on air. The 330W AC adapter is the biggest impediment to going higher because it runs out of power and turns off if I try to push it any higher, LOL.
For the sake of comparison, I'll post a link to my GTX 680M benchmark scores. I am limited to posting 10 images, otherwise I would post them all here. These are all massively overclocked on CPU and GPU. I use the stock M18x R2 LCD panel, which is 1080p and I don't have an external display available to replicate these benchmark runs at higher resolutions. Anyone that wants to lower their display resolution to 1080p and see how their overclocked CPU and Titan compares with these scores is more than welcome to have a crack at it.

I don't have any game results to share except for a recent Crysis 3 test. Sorry I don't have more game benches. I've been too busy lately, but I plan on including those in the post linked above in the near future. This was run at only 4.0GHz on the CPU and a modest GPU OC... I think it was like 1008/1100 if memory serves me correctly. All settings on highest except MSAA 2x, motion blur and lens flare disable (because I hate the way they look when enabled).
Again, feel free to lower your display resolution to 1080p, crank up the clocks on the CPU and GPU and see how they compare.
If anyone is into Catzilla benchmarks, feel free to look at the leader board there and check out my profile here: Mr. Fox's Catzilla Profile
