    Hi there,

    yesterday I installed a new official driver for my samsung notebook, which has a 650M and now when I start GPU-Z I get new infos:

    Now there is no longer the shader-clock, instead the boost.
    And on top of that the pixel- and texture-fillrate doubled up!

    Is that possible?

    did I do domething wrong?

    what are the real fillrates?

    thx

    Yeah, mine has done the Same when i first got my Samsung it showed boost on the memory from 900mhz to 950mhz and a lot higher clock rates for cpu and mem, and now it`s the same as yours and i am still on stock Samsung display driver`s, I only have the GDDR3 version not the GDDR5 you have.

    EDIT : the gpu clock on the graphic card page is showing 405mhz and it does not change, but on the sensor page it shows graphic clock changing between 135mhz and 835mhz.

    I have just been playing crysis 2 , and gpu-z is showing my core maxing out at 950mhz and the memory at 900mhz , when i thought the memory boost was 950mhz?

    I have not overclocked my 650m in any way.

    There is no memory boost, only GPU boost. Memory is stock 900MHz.
