    Hello everyone, first post on this section of the forums :)

    I just bought this new laptop yesterday for £675 including tax, this version has the i7 3612qm and the Geforce GT 635m.

    I have been installing all my favorite programs and setting this great laptop for some gaming.

    I have installed Throttlestop for this amazing cpu with no problems.

    Now I am trying to overclock the GPU and I have used MSI afterburner with success only in overclocking the memory clocks, not the core. When I try to increase the core clocks they remain unchanged.

    Let me know how you overclocked your 635m and what kind of results you got in gaming.
