    I have rivatuner open atm changed the power using settings to allow me to stay in 2d mode. I need more battery life while traveling off aC power.

    What is the clock speed i need to set for Core, Shader, and memory?< for max batt life in 2d mode when on battery.

    I am using a Sager 8662 and have used rm clock to powersaver when on batt: limits the cpu.

    anybody know what the ratio is? i put the 2d mode for core clock to 100 shader 200 and memory 80 and it failed horribly. lol just gray refreshing at a visible speed.

    The shader clock should be tied to the core clock so I wouldn't mess with it. Just cut core and memory in half and then start lowering small amounts at a time after that.

    Once you've found a stable 2D underclock, you might as well just flash it onto the GPU so you won't have to do it through Rivatuner.
