    Hey folks been doing a lot of searching and can not seem to find the answer to this question. I have a Asus G50-VT X1 and the overclock option from direct console is missing, all it shows is the option to change the oled panel. Previously it had the option to overclock and I believe after a driver update the option disappeared. I've tried multiple times to uninstall and reinstall the program and drivers but I have no luck. Anyone eve have this issue or a solution?

    MCP 2009,

    Ensure that you have the latest driver suite from nVidia’s site. (This may cause errors with your card, but you’re trying to overclock so we’ll ignore that part.)

    Under the “Performance” tab in the left pane you should be able to edit your graphics card’s settings.



    Hope this helps.

    Sorry to bump an old thread but I still have the issue. When I open direct console it only has options for the little led panel with battery percentage. It has no option to overclock or change the lights on the cover
