Thanks for the quick update. I guess the P5 and P8 states could have been unlocked before, but P0 couldn't. Now +/- 524 MHz is available. Have to try it in the 3d Mark 11 now and I'll report back. 314.22 drivers Stock: 600/700: P3892, max temp 79 (but run after OC run; didn't keep track during the first run) OC: 900/1000: P5473 (40% increase), max temp 77 C OC: 1000/1000: P5903 (50% increase), max temp 79 C Didn't try to go higher, don't plan to; this is just what I needed to improve the performance in DCS World and try to get by till those 780M prices go down to some reasonable levels (read: much much less than the current 700 EUR ). Thanks a lot! BTW, I've been to Switzerland and man the beer is expensive there.. Hope my small token of appreciation can get you one!

Thanks for the Dell K4000M update. I've flashed it, but the nvidia inspector and e.g. EVGA Precision are still limited to 135 MHz. This is with the 314.22 drivers, I've tried upgrading to 320.18, but those give me a black screen (and 100+ pages of feedback on them on Nvidia forum are not very encouraging ).

We're only discussing GPUs here and MXM 3.0b compatible ones. I have no idea what are you talking about here. It's just a lot of generalizations and assumptions. Yes, this is what I was talking about. I'd presume most OEMs don't customize the Nvidia BIOS structure, but maybe tweak some options or parts at most and why would they (unless they make changes to the Nvidia PCB design or specs of the used components like memory and such)? This is why I could take the 680M from e.g. a Clevo laptop and put it in my Dell Precision M6600 or M6700 and it would work although the card is not officially supported by the motherboard BIOS.

Not so sure that's so often the case. Usually, just the OEM ID is different between different manufacturers. Yes, they can have a custom BIOS, but usually they don't bother as having a dedicated development team for that costs money and what are the gains really? Unless you have a custom PCB or smth which I doubt they do in mobile.

But I thought that the Nvidia BIOS'es are similar so he can change it without actually owning one (e.g. there's already a modifed K3000M and K5000M (hence why I posted my vBIOS here https://anonfiles.com/file/28887b9dbe84d945d616f1e194e02509). Of course I know it's done with a HEX editor and I presume that the address location for the clock values Nvidia uses for their vBIOS is probably in the same spot so it can be found easily by someone who knows what to look for. Hence why you have programs like vBIOS patcher which then edit these values which the ones you want. All I asked was if this patcher application supports K4000M or not.

I just hope he can find time to mod the K4000M. Is there some sofware for this? Does that vBIOS patcher support Nvidia Quadro cards? OK, I could probably use the 675MX one, but I'd rather have one which my laptop BIOS supports officially.

But 580M is a Fermi core in 40nm. You can't really directly compare its temperature to the Kepler core (28nm) one.

@svl7: Can you please unlock the K4000M BIOS? This is the one saved with GPU-Z off my Dell.. https://anonfiles.com/file/28887b9dbe84d945d616f1e194e02509
