    I've been trying to research(Google) on how to overclock my 750M past the +135 limit but have not been able to find solid information on how. Does anyone have any recommendations or suggestions on how? I would like to get my 750M as close to 760M performance as possible. It plays my games well, but i think it can do better.

    Could you point me in the right direction towards the Vbios and instructions? A quick google got me some information, but nothing specific enough for me to take the chance.

    You would need a modded BIOS made specifically for the laptop model you have, so you can search the forum based on that. If there isn't one already, the guy who is the best with BIOS mods on the forum and does a lot of them is Prema, you could PM him and ask for his help.

    That looks like just what I need, but plazing my boost clock at +135 is 1189MHz. Are you boosting past your 1200MHz, or is that the highest you're getting? 11MHz doesn't seem worth the risk..


    Edit:I just ran 3dmark11( http://www.3dmark.com/3dm11/8356085) and my score is about the same as yours so I don't think I need to flash it. I guess I'll just stick to the +135 limit.

    1200MHz core and 5400MHz memory is quite stable for my laptop, sometimes I boost more for benchmarking but not suitable as daily clock speed since it sometimes artifacting.
