    Unstable overclock for this driver. Try checking with stock clocks

    Hmmm i'm too lazy to do that, too much hassle. :rolleyes:
    Indeed, nvidia is trying to do everything they can to stop user from OCing their laptop. :confused:

    NVIDIA does not want gtx1080m look pitiful towards gtx980m. Kill overclocking of gtx980m so gtx1080m looks better.

    Well, the only valid reason they have is M.O.N.E.Y.

    Yeah has always been like that, slowly killing the old one so that the new one looks better.
