Here's an update. So far so good with the new Dell 680m vbios. No throttling. My 8000k GPU runs in the low 70's

@svl7 Sorry for the late donation, I have been busy studying for my finals. Don't get too drunk now

@svl7 Now your donate link is messing from your first post of this thread. LOL. So far no throttling on the Dell 680m, I'm amazed

Wow. This is amazing. I am so happy that I can almost break the 8k barrier with the Dell 680m. I couldn't even come close to break the 7k barrier before. Thank you so much slv7!!! I will buy you a beer when I get back from the gym

EDIT: Your link to donate does not work.

Could you post the UV version Dell 680m?

I want to confirm that the brick fix works to downgrade my m17x R4 BIOS back to A05. I have a question. So even with an unlocked bios, the 3610QM is not overclockable?

Kind of makes a difference which card you are using.

Ummmm, who told you you could run that on a dell card? j/k

Not enough voltage to do that my friend. And as of right now. No fix is in place for this. You can do 900 to about 950. Depending on room temp.

Let me know on what scene you are in in battlefield and i'll will run through the same exact part and check my fps against yours.

Depends on your room temp and what over clock you are trying to get away with.

Sigh.. I honestly should of just gotten an m17x R4 w/ 660m (Dell wanted $500 for the 680m). Then wait 2 months and buy a 4GB 680m for $600. Then I wouldn't have to deal with this. I don't have BF3 yet. I'll get it soon. I changed my vbios to the OC OV edition. So now I am using 889/1800 (default with the modded vbios). Funny thing is.. I got my best 3Dmark11 score with the stock bios with +42 increase. I throttle with the default settings for the OC OV edition.

Yeah, I know. It's not as if I'm not trying to circumvent this... I'm actually trying really hard to prevent this, but it's not that simple. Well, maybe it is, but I haven't found the solution yet.

Oh I wasn't trying to attacking you in anyway. I am really thankful for you spending your time to help us 680m users out.

Do you guys get any throttling in any thing else? I mean, out of all the games and benchmarks other than 3dmark11 test 1? Anyone?

I just tried out Crysis on Ultra 1008/1900 . I was average about 60fps. Then couple mins in the game. BAM Throttling came in. Then I started to average 40fps

I have an Alienware M17X R4 with a 2GB NVIDIA 680M. I flash my vbios to the OCEditionNew. I want to report that there is still throttling in graphics test 1 of 3DMark 11. With no OC, I got 6037 graphics only with this vbios
