    More info to follow. But using fsbset and the PLL setting in the screenshot, i was able to overclock this laptop via increasing the FSB.

    - Turbo33 was enabled, thus the FSB is further multiplied by 33%. (235Mhz x 1.33 = 313Mhz)
    - The Nvidia graphics card was also overclocked.

    Pretty stupid thing to try on an ultra-portable, right?

    Is there a way to get this to start on bootup?

    Sure, create a shortcut, and put that in the startup folder.

    "C:\Program Files\Turbo\setfsb.exe" -w01 -s235 -cg[ICS9LR3362CGLF] -q

    And from what I can tell, the setting is retained even when the power profile is changed. But going into standby resets teh FSB.

    can you post benchmark scores?

    Also, is there anyway to leave turbo33 permanently enabled?

    The PLL is in the latest paid version.

    (or you can extract the PLL yourself via the export command, and import it in the free version)

    Edit: Updated benchmarks in first post.
