    Hello there,
    i have a thinkpad t61p with the t9300 nvidia quadro 570m and 3gb ddr5300. Was wondering using riva tuner what acceptable OC rates would be? I dont know of a way to "test" the settings i choose other then to actually play a game or run 3dmarks. If anyone has any insight it would be appreciated.

    thanks ~kaine~

    I suggest you run ATitool for minimum of 1 hour and scan for visual artifacts at different clocks.

    I'd suggest that you don't overclock higher than about 20%
