    Is it possible to overclock this GPU from the 3850m speeds to those of the 3870m?

    I am going to be using the MSI GT735, just want to be sure. I do know and have lots of experience about overclocking (pc...for 3+ years...).

    I overclocked it to 630/675, and I got scores of 7500 3dMarks. I don't think it can go all the way up to the 3870, but I'm just playing it safe (BTW the temperature right now is extremely cool, 49 degrees, and goes up to a max of 70, so maybe it's possible).
