    Hey guys,

    I have been searching and reading around, but I cannot seem to get an OC program to even work correctly first, nonetheless try increasing clocks!

    I have tried the AMD GPU Clock Tool as described in the 5740G owner's lounge
    ( http://forum.notebookreview.com/showthread.php?t=468091).
    I installed the program, but every time I run it, i get an error: "Failed: No Valid Devices Found!"
    this is with driver signing disabled in win 7 64bit and program ran as administrator.

    I also tried Rivatuner 2.24c as described in this thread: http://forum.notebookreview.com/showthread.php?t=469021
    But i realized that I do know the values to add to the Rivatuner.cfg file to enable the program to recognize my 5650!

    Anyone have any ideas how I can get around these? do ppl know the values to be added to the Rivatuner.cfg file so the program can enable clock changes for my card?

    I got this laptop for overclocking b/c 7140 3dmarks (06) is too slow. I dont want to throw $$ down the drain...

    Thanks!

    hey guys, sorry for so many posts.

    i got the AMD GPU clock tool to work by installing 0.9.26 version.

    however anyone know the values for the 5650 to add to Rivatuner.cfg so I can use that program and enable hotkeys and profiles?

    AMD gpu clock tool is pretty primitive (but works great!), and do not support profiles and stuff

    thanks

    Do you know the code for the 5650 then?
    RV730 is the 4650, 4670 cores

    what about the new 5600/5700 series?

    RV8 something?
