Hey I have the sprint version and normally can achieve a score around 4200. Ive seen as high as 5034, after closing all apps and clearing RAM. What are you guys averaging?
Anywhere from 4500 to 5000

I've noticed heat plays a large factor in this phone. Try this for an experiment. Take your phone and use it normally for about 5 minutes (Texting, Phone Call, Whatever) and then run Quadrant see what you get. Then take your phone and set it by your A/C vent for a few minutes and let it chill. Run Quadrant again and I'll bet your score is significantly better. I was having problems with my T-Mobile S3 not reaching 5000+ in Quadrant. I use the phone heavily but could only manage to get like 3500 - 4000. I let my phone sit above the A/C for 5 minutes and ran the test again to get 5100!

CPU - 13274 WOW! Now imagine if they put 2GB of ram in the International Version now that would be THE ultimate phone.
yea ive definitely noticed that heat is a factor in the quadrant scores. Ive been turning my phone off for about 30mins to a hour, either once a day or every other day, to let it cool down. The AC cooling idea is cool but im a little nervous putting the phone through two different extremes like that too often

I don't think you have to switch off the phone to cool it down. Just letting it sit idle seems to do the trick. I too confirm three effect of heat on quadrant score. It was on the 4100 range when hot, but after some idle time it hit 5100. Never switched the phone off in between.
Yea I keep my s3 in a cooler iced down properly, I'm getting 9000 quadrant score consistently after it thaws a bit.

yeah the only reason the U.S. version score above the htc one x is because of the ram. the cpu is like half the speed.
Well that was the idea of the extra G of ram... I still don't see the need for quad cores in phones just yet.

I stay mostly in the 80s and can get into the 90s with heavy use. Don't think I've ever passed 100, but there's a chance something like psx4droid could have pushed me up. I average about 86F.

Do you use the SetCPU profiles? You could set one to underclock the processor while charging.

Are you guys using SetCPU for profiles and overclocking, or are you just using it for checking temps and current speed?

I was using it to check temps for this but I use 2 profiles, which may help my temps (def helps my batt). The default profile is 1000 max, 300 min, on demand. The other is when my screen is shut off, 300 max, 300 min. I've found this has saved me a pretty sizeable chunk of battery. I tend to listed to music 7-8 hours a day and while it doesnt need full CPU it will use it if it gets the chance. Restricting the proc to 300 off has never caused any issues and I can get from 8am - 4 or 5pm staying over 70% battery I have the unstable apps overclock and used it for a while, but kinda came to the conclusion that I can't really justify needing to overclock yet as I never see any lag. I guess if I run into any lag at some point I'll prob clock back up to 1.3 or so.

I did overclock, but it ran way too hot, like 107F during normal use and didnt get below 100 dormant. 1gig is high enough to me. I have it set to underclock when charging or when below 50% battery or when above 104F.

Only other idea I have is downloading Droid Overclock and try running at low or ultra low voltage. Make sure to make a backup first. And try low before ultra low. Individual devices can be picky about a lower voltage and can go into a bootloop if it can't run on a lower voltage. Droid Overclock has profiles like SetCPU.

Not that I've tried it... but we all know the Epic is more than twice as fast as some devices that run Android. In that case, how would running it at 40% speed make it unusable?

Umm no thats wrong.
HTC EVO Shift 4G can be over-clocked to 1.9GHz from a stock 800 MHz: 110% OC
HTC Rezound can be overclocked to 1.99GHz from a stock 1.5GHz: 49-50% OC
Moto Droid X can be overclocked to 2GHz from a stock 1GHz: 100% OC
Theres plenty the Samsung Epic only has technically a 30% overclock and virtually a 50% overclock
But theres plenty of other phones with more over-clockability

Well because our phones are 1.2GHz Stock but they lowered to 1GHz because that was the margin in 2010 for high end devices but they Under Clocked to save some battery. So technically we only came up with a 30% OC (1500MHz).

Firstly, it's mainly just out of curiosity, I just want to see how far me device can go. Also, take my SGS2 for example, stock 1.2ghz, at the end of the day when I put it in to charge at about 9pm, I am left with about 20%+ battery. In my opinion that is useless battery life, as it is not enough to get through the next day, so it is just being wasted. So to overclock to 1.4 or 1.5ghz on my s2 to increase speed and battery life isn't an issue at all, why shouldn't I gain the extra speed? Same will hopefully apply to the SGS3
I can easily get to 1.6ghz at 1375mV and it's rock stable, but I do notice a battery drain when that high. It's all about personal balance between performance, heat generated by OC'ing and battery, for me 1.5ghz is the sweet spot for all three. Also I do heavily under-volt both cpu & gpu. My GPU isn't overclocked as their isn't a game that taxes it at stock, but it's nice knowing I can OC the GPU perfectly stably & safely to 400mhz from 267mhz and get a sizable performance boost, if I ever need it in the future.

Anyways the problem is that I think I meat up the cpu. Because it got really hot and when I tried to retry antutu I got 11000 and when I go back to faux123 over clocks app and I set the CPU to 1.8 and run the test when I go back to the app its at 1.3 or 1.1ghz
Did I blow the cpu or what??? Please help!!

no, you didn't blow up anything.. but be careful next time, because you can lose the phone. Nb: Benchmarks are useless, you can blow up your phone, only to see 25k+ on antutu :|
sorry for my bad english.
Thermal protection probably kicked in, preventing the frequencies of your cpu to go any higher, and this to protect your phone.
You shouldn't run multiple benchmarks back to back, since it heats your phone up by alot, and can cause issues.

first off, your phone will not blow up. if it gets way to hot, itll shut down. secondly, benchmarking and heat go hand in hand. when you benchmark, expect heat. if you are benchmarking antutu, and the tempurature does not go up, then you are doing something wrong. your score lowered the second run because you didnt let your phone cool down first.

Benchmarks can provide some (very inaccurate) indication of how good a device/ROM is performing but generally they have very little use. Personally I see them as a waste of time and definitely don't recommend OCing to achieve a better benchmark score, especially on a phone as smooth as the nexus 4.
Sent from my Nexus 4
I just got my new phone today. It seems to be working ok, but I ran a couple of benchmarks on it and they're WAY below what I've seen on reviews, so I'm concerned that there's something wrong with my phone.
Geekbench 714/2810
Antutu 41961
Does anyone have benchmarks to compare these to? Thoughts on why they're so low? I tried a factory reset, but no help.
Maybe you could try to upgrade to the latest version (if you haven't done yet).
In my knowledge, I remember that when i ran a test on my Nexus 5, sometimes it got around 23000 and other 33000. It depends on what software i were running.

Your timing is perfect. I just did that and the scores are more of what I'd expect. 58000 in Antutu for instance. So there's definitely thermal throttling going on.

I'm still hoping mine isn't defective. A heat sync not attached right in there or something.

That's really interesting! I got 46000, a couple of times, then put it in the fridge as suggested. Ended up being 20mins as I forgot it was in there..!! Then it did a 61000. Definitely prefers being cold and not throttling.
