    So I just picked up my G60VX from BB for 629 :D (super excited to start messing with it)

    So after searching through the forums and owner lounge for a while I ran into a some optimization guides and I just want to know if I got this right.

    Basicly powermizer helps the GPU run cooler but messing with the clocks?

    and correct me if im wrong, powermizer is built into the drivers but its been turned off and the only way to turn it on is by downloading the powermizer switch right?

    Just making sure I understood all this correctly :)

    Thanks!

    powermixer is usually screwed up by NVDIA drivers.. do the tweak below.. its underclocks your card on idle and undervolts your card under load which is what it did for me dropping temps.. :D
