    Hey guys,

    just wondering what everyone's take is on stable overclock of the nvidia GT 335m. Has anyone tried it with nvidia system tools?

    What stable overclocks are you guys using?

    What are your recommendations (heat issues? crashes? frying the laptop..)

    I have done so, but honestly we're so CPU bound most of the time there's not much point.
    According to my records, I maxed the GPU slider and got to 860 memory. Can't tell you any more, 'cause I don't remember.

    MSI afterburner or eVGA precision. Both are based on Rivatuner, so they are AMD/nVidia agnostic.

    But as previously noted, we are horridly CPU bound in almost every situation, even on an i7 UM proc.
