Hi All, I have a Clevo 150EM with GTX 680M. I unlocked the bios using the method posted here in the form. I used "Clevo 680m - 80.04.33.00.10_'OCedition'_revised_01 - OV 1025v.zip" file to unlock the bios. now I get the option to increase the clock beyond 135mhz in nvidia inspector. But when I overclock gpu to +180 or +200 and apply the settings, I still get the normal 3dmark 11 performance preset scores. MSI Combustor clearly shows the base clock to have increased. I am really not able to understand why 3dmark score wont increase. Any suggestions? Also, I have i7 3610QM processor. Is the cpu throttling gpu?

And to make the matters worse, if I roll back the bios to original version and then run 3dmark11 with +135mhz overclock in nvidia inspector, the score increases drastically!!

Locked bios Normal - 6299

Locked Bios overclock +135 - 6873

Unlocked Bios - overclock +200 - 6244

You should buy skyrim and forget everything for a few months. Hahaha. Been playing it for 2 months now. Doesn't look like it will end anytime soon. I started the game with high difficulty, thereby increasing the game time!

I have had a Clevo for around 3 years now. Got the 680m one. I have sent the laptop for servicing because of my own mistakes quite a few times. Never had any problem whatsoever with the customer support. They are very friendly. So going to alienware just for customer support really doesn't justify the price difference. And reg the 765 card, I would agree that you get the latest one there. Graphics card in mobile platform seem to be outdated almost every 12 months

Hi All, New member here. I have a Clevo 150em with gtx 680m. i7 3610qm, 8gb 1600mhz and seagate momentous hybrid 500gb HD.

My first post, will start with saying Thank you. I have a 3 year old clevo 150em. Have never overclocked my gtx 680m. Now I cant seem to run most games on verg high or ultra setings - so time to overclock! ALso, I have a stock PSU for my clevo. Is there a need to worry about it if I unlock the bios and overclock the GPU?
