OK this annoys me as I thought it was a deliberate under clock from Asus and HP for thermal performance. Not that this was advertised anyway, but to find its a different chip, an MX150 max-q if you will, is really underhanded and shoddy imo. Ive known for some time the swift 3 performs 24% better than HP, Asus, Lenovo etc, I assumed it was an OEM decision. Going by overclock videos I cannot understand it as the ones I have seen are not putting the 2 notebooks (asus and mi) into any thermal danger (sub 80 deg) when under stress.

well, at least the user still has the option to manually "overclock" back to stock MX150 speeds... im guessing the point behind this being that the OEMs are able to advertize way higher mobility / runtimes with those low clocks.ChanceJackson likes this.
Nvidia & OEMs sneaking in underclocked MX150 GPUs without informing customers !
