    So I'll get my new m1530 in a few weeks and i want to overclock the gpu once i get it but i don't really know what clock speeds its capable of. I'd appreciate anyone who's overclocked this gpu in vista to you answer the following questions:

    1. your new clock speeds
    2. your new 3dmark 06 score
    3. the driver you've used to oc
    4. and if possible your gpu temp

    Thanks in advance! :)

    I thought I should mention this:

    Every GPU is unique regardless if its the same model notebook or same make. As each GPU is unique you will have a different limit then Joe Blow. You can use these as a general dont go crazy high but do your own testing , do not just insert one of these random clocks, slowly work your way up.

    Good luck :)

    Oh yea I know, I just wanted to get a general idea of what could be possible. I'll overclock pretty conservatively anyway.

    Xystus - Just a note, there is no temperature sensor for the GPU memory. Such a high memory overclock may be dangerous for your GPU even if the core temp is OK, the memory temp may be high.

    Thx for your comment; I always assumed that when I don't see any artifacts, sudden stuttering or other abnormal stuff after hours of playing - everything was fine. I haven't experienced any strange stuff with my OC settings. You still think it's dangerous?

    Thanks! It looks like the m1530 is very oc-friendly. Can't wait to try it out myself!
