    I have always read about overclocking the 420M but never heard about the 435M, why is that?

    Can someone tell me if I can overclock the 435M or if you already had and what program should I use and how much is it recommended to overclock.

    Thanks.

    You can OC the 435M.
    I created a thread for the L701x users that tests the Nvidia drivers that are released for both the 435M/445M and had fairly good results. see here.
    There are a few programs available for OC'ing an Nvidia card, but I prefered the ease of use with MSI Afterburner, a free download. If you read thru the thread I started there one or two other mentioned, with verying results.
    All the info that I collected for the 445M will apply to the 435M, just heed the suggestions and warnings listed in the thread.
    Good luck!
