Hey guys,

I got a replacement 2.6ghz MBPr with 16gb Ram because my last one had **** loads of issues.

My original MBPr had a score of...

Processor: 7.6
Memory: 7.7
Graphics: 7.2
Gaming Graphics: 7.2
Primary Hard Disk: 7.9

Processor: 7.6
Memory: 7.7
Graphics: 5.5 <<<
Gaming Graphics: 6.5 <<<
Primary Hard Disk: 7.9

I got the latest GT 650M drivers and even tried reverting to the older one... But Fifa 13 runs and looks like **** now on max settings... It used to run so smooth on max settings but now it's just horrible.

Any ideas why my Graphics and Gaming Graphics score have took such a hit?

Can other MBPr users running Bootcamp post there gaming scores? This is worrying...

2011 MBP gets graphics score of 6.9, 7.0 if overclocked.
7.2 for a RMBP seems reasonable.
Reset SMC. Others have suggested this fixes the problem.
If it doesn't help, keep resetting it until it does.
 
Thanks guys,

I figured it out last night. Reset the PRAM & SMC... all back to normal now!

To chime in again, my graphics score was also 5.5. After SRAM reset it went up to 7.5.
 
I ran the test the other day and got 7.2-7.7ish for everything except storage- only got a 5.9 with the SSD! I'll try a reset and report back.

On an unrelated note...has anyone besides myself tried installing Nvidia drivers directly from their website? The 650m driver seemed to install without a hitch, which surprised me...figured only the Apple one would work.
