    How then?

    To get better battery times, why else.

    The right drivers from laptopvideo2go.com. They will enable a clock setting feature since a lot of them include the "coolbits" registry tweak to enable them in the nVidia control panel. I use 84.25 for my GO 7600, but it doesn't do anything for them. Even at 50 core/80 mem, I get no increase in battery life and the memory still causes the palm rest to get uncomfortably warm-hot.

    The card already has PowerMizer 6.0 technology in it. You can download Riva Tuner to control it manually though.
