    I am trying to Overclock my 9800M GTX's in my M1730 using nVidia Inspector. I can change the core/mem/shaders no problem, have them set to:

    Core: 665MHz
    Shaders: 1670MHz
    Mem: 975MHz

    but I can't change the voltage as the option is greyed out. Is it possible to unlock this? Do I need to edit the vBios? What are the advantages to and dangers of increasing the voltage?

    Have fans on max and notebook cooler running underneath. No temp problems yet playing COD:BO MP, MOH, BFBC2 on high settings.
