    Hey there.

    I just bought an Asus G50Vt-A1 with an 9800M GS. I found out that when I run on batteries the GPU underclocks. How can edit those settings, in case I don't want it to do that? Are they found in the nVidia Control Panel or do I need to use another utility like AtiTool or RivaTuner?

    I think you can set it to "high performance".

    When on battery, you have to set it to High Performance, it will stay underclocked, but as soon as you run a game it will go back up to full speed.
