chad2625 Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 So I use the custom bios for 650M (Y500) Great Work. I was reading the thread for the Y580 with a custom Voltage for 650M. in my Y500. I suspect that it might work, but before I Brick my laptop I wanted to get a confirmation. I Know that different cards even though they are the same model, could be different especially in laptops (less standardization).

RedLionRisen Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 You can now use software to overvolt the 650m using SVL7's v2.04 BIOS mod. From my testing so far using nvidiainspector to overvolt and overclock, the most it'll let me do is about 1250 Mhz core, at 1.15~1.187 volts max for the P0 state. However, it wont lock the gpu at P0 (boost state). Attempting to increase the voltage any more will usually see the gpu throttle down to 1.15 volts max, even if temperatures are below 85C. Even with those limitations, 1250 core @ 1.15v gives me a 3dmark11 score of 3440! Quite nice.You can now use software to overvolt the 650m using SVL7's v2.04 BIOS mod.

I just gave this a try and compared the pre-overclock/volt benchmark with post in 3DMark11 and it bumped me up ~900 points. 2322 vs. 3286For what it's worth, I installed the 320.49 Nvidia driver just before doing both tests.

chad2625 Posted July 10, 2013 Author Share Posted July 10, 2013 So, I upgraded to 2.04 and saw that I could change my Voltage clock but the voltages would not change via GPU-Z however this thread by jester_socom did what I wanted http://forum.techinferno.com/lenovo-ibm/3593-ideapad-y500-bios-mods-overvolting-overclocked-out-box.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
