That I know already. I didn't flash the second card without knowing if I could flash the first. Does the modded BIOS allow overclocking of the first card?

It's possible that the 1st 650M shares the same BIOS as the system while the 2nd has its own BIOS.

Huh, it seems you're right. I've updated my BIOS to a modified version from this thread. When I check the cards in Nvidia Inspector, the first card says [MODIFIED] under BIOS, while the other card doesn't say that. Does this mean I can't unlock the overclocking for the first card or is it some setting I need to change in the BIOS?

I have a Y500 with dual GT 650M, when I try to do anything against -i0, I get "EEPROM ID (20,00FF) : UNKNOWN, ERROR : Supported EEPROM not found, though against -i1 it works fine, so I've managed to save a backup of that one at least.

I would think not much can as long as you actually are following the directions carefully. And if there was any major problems with this process I think we would have heard about them by now. So...I'm sure it's fine. Speaking of which...going to start doing mine now. Wish me luck

Fair enough I'm guessing that if something's wrong it's always possible to flash the bios back to the backuped BIOS.

My main problem with the game is that the combat feels clunky. If they let you attack while moving I feel that the game would be far more fun. ex. run at 2/3 speed while attacking. This change would let ranged kite and melee pursue, but there is still a movement penalty so that attacking or not is still something to consider. As it is now you need to stand in place to do max damage.

I like the idea of classes being highly customizable but I feel that the classes are too similar. I feel that classes should be able to overlap, but some classes should just be a bit better at some things than others.

Aye, those are some of my greatest gripes with the gameplay. The gameplay just feels... wrong, while Diablo III has a number of flaws, at least it has a very fluid gameplay. The customization in Path of Exile is good, on paper, but take away all the "Increase x by y%" skills and you're left with very few actual major traits.

I had some moderate hopes about this when the talk first started appearing about it. Unfortunately it turned out to be a bit of a let down. It feels like it tries too hard to be Diablo 2 for all the people who miss that old feeling, that it just feels old. It doesn't feel like a game should feel 2013. Not just the graphics, though they do have an impact as well, but the gameplay as well.

An edit to my last reply. I think the league community is quite toxic. Even in higher elo games people are way to cocky. If you look to dota2, they are a bit relaxer but I think its becuase people just started playing.

Mm, I don't know really. My experience with MOBA overall is that the community is extremely toxic, in a way that doesn't really show in other game genres. There are a couple of things in the MOBA-genre that works for a toxic environment. The foremost are probably:

Casual players vs elitist gamers

While the hardcore gamer puts an effort into fitting the correct role, buying the correct items, overall playing the correct way to win, the casual player might have other goals for their gaming session, like having fun. Or as penny arcade puts it: Penny Arcade - The One True Way

Time investment

A MOBA match can take up towards 40-60 minutes. If you get stuck with bad teammates in an FPS, you can always just leave. If you leave a MOBA game, the other 9 players have a reduced experience and you're, in most games, penalized.

These make for a pretty toxic-inducing environment which is built into the core game mechanics.

Given that one follows the instructions to the letter, is it safe to do these mods to the BIOS? I.e can something go wrong / brick the laptop.
