    Hi,

    The graphics card in the Sony Fe-31M is underclocked: Core runs at 350 instead of 450 MHz, Memory runs at 350 instead of 500 Mhz.

    So i'm wondering, is it possible to clock the graphics card to the standard levels? I'm considering buying this notebook, but according to this review the FE-31M has relatively poor gaming performance due to it's underclocked GPU.

    You can overclock it certainly but you should take the risks into account too.
    There is the possibility that the laptop will become too hot and get damaged.
    Fill the FAQ and post it in the what notebook should I buy section,I hope we can point you to the right direction there. :)
