Solved! Ryzen 7 5800H

[Mpower125]

Hello everyone. so recently my cpu physics score dropped a massive amount (40%) and im not to sure why? any ideas?

Laptop is a MSI Delta 15

Before https://www.3dmark.com/fs/31554554

Now https://www.3dmark.com/fs/31598841

even tried switching back old drivers....and nothing

Check task manager and see if there are any other processes running during the benchmark. Ideally you would have 1-2% CPU usage before running the benchmark. Also check CPU temps during the benchmark to see if you may be thermal throttling.

My cpu temp maxes out at 80c so it can’t be throttling. I have the iets gt500 laptop cooler things a beast. And I always make sure my cpu no more than 5% usage during my runs. Honestly stumped here.

Then monitor the frequency and make sure it is reaching it's rated speeds. Any chance you checked scores on another benchmark and can compare previous scores to today?

Just did a TimeSpy

CPU score when everything was fine was 10113

now its 8033

cpu running at full 4.4Ghz....man this is mind blowing. what on earth is happening...

Nothing running in the background, cpu at 2% before tests.

Power mode?
Power limit?

Not sure what you mean?

 

[gdansk]

Power plan in your operating system. And what is it the power limit in watts it reaches when running the test?

 

[Mpower125]

High Performance

and Total power used by cpu according to HWinfo64 is 66 watts

 

[Hitman928]

Are any other CPU benchmarks showing such low performance?

 

[Mpower125]

pretty much every 3dmark benchmark

Im going to try cinebench and see what happens

video driver update ? bios updates ? bios fixes for security flaws ?

 

[Mpower125]

I got 661 on cinebench R24 multicore test which is around same as other 5800H systems...hmmmmm

video driver update ? bios updates ? bios fixes for security flaws ?

When I had the good physics results I already had the latest BIOS and drivers. I just decided to test again one day and now I have a 40% decrease on physics test.

auto update of video card drivers ? Manually install what was the newest when you bought the laptop.

Found a thread on Reddit with another person with same issue. But no solution

Well thanks anyways for trying to help, I’ll post back on here if I find a solution.

 

[Mpower125]

Never found a solution

Just want to say I found solution. Reinstall windows. Fixed everything
