    Not surprising as the drivers aren't intended for Win10 at this time. Will probably need to do quite a bit of fiddling for a chance at making it work.

    As it turns out it wasn't working at all lol
    I reinstalled windows 8.1 as I was just having a play at 10 and now it seems that my 780m wants to idle at 384mhz instead of the original 134 ( I think that's what it was ) I read that the new drivers have a different power saving system could this be the culprit ?
