    OK. So i am trying to overclock my 460m in my alienware m17x r3
    i am trying to do 815/1630/1525.
    I am using MSI afterburner and the Furmark.
    After i put in these settings the GPU shark detects the new settings.
    It has 3 different settings the one i put in then performance state P12.
    P12 is
    GPU: 50.5MHz
    Mem: 135.0 MHz
    VDDC: 0.825
    it keeps going to this performance state and will not stay at P0
    P0 is
    GPU: 815.0 MHz
    Mem: 1525.0 MHz
    VDDC: 0.950V

    why does it keep switching to the P12 state? even when i set it back to the stock clocks it keeps switching to this state!
    How do i keep this from happening?
    Thanks in advance!
