    Just got my Envy 17 and I'm loving it. The 5850 is quite a fierce card. Just opened up GPU-Z to check my clocks. Does 500 core and 900 memory sound right? Apparently, it's normally supposed to be at 625. Has HP just underclocked it? Is this normal for an Envy?

    I imagine the default clocks vary quite a bit depending on what apps you have running.

    On the 5380 the default seems to be 99 core and 199 memory on idle but I can overclock to around 550/1150 without experiencing crashing using the AMD Clock Tool.
