    Are there drivers, or software, that allow access and the bility to tweak the core clock speed on the FX 1700M video card in my M4400? I beleive the FX 1700M consumes an extra 15W of power (over the 770M) simply because it is clocked faster. I'm basically drying to downclock the 1700M to match a 770M, to reduce power/heat a bit...

    Try RivaTuner. I usually use it to overclock my GPU, but it should also work for downclocking.
