    So we're looking at a 5-6 FPS improvement in Fire Strike (a bit over 10%) for the faster P3200. Still disappointing that the difference between the P3200's in the two systems is not made more clear, but that's hardly a game-changing difference... I also noticed that they're charging about $50 more for the slower P3200 in the 7530 than they are for the faster one in the 7730. (By comparison, CPU choices are pretty much the same between the two, off by about $1 for some reason.)

    Indeed, and what a pity. @Div033 and @Mazed, could you guys see what you can do... Maybe OC the memory by steps and post your results here?

    How would you even go about overclocking on a Pascal GPU? I foolishly tried downloading MSI Afterburner and using that, but it wouldn't allow any changes to core clock or memory. Some initial Googling reveals that there really isn't any way to do it, unless I'm missing something.

    According to @yrekabakery, it can be done with nVidia Inspector instead.

    The core and memory sliders in Afterburner should work. Strange that they do not for you. Are you using the latest Afterburner (4.5.0) and Quadro or GeForce driver?

    Try bringing up the voltage/frequency curve editor (Ctrl+F) and dragging the entire curve up while holding down Shift.

    Can also try Nvidia Inspector.

    I'll give Nvidia Inspector a shot. Using MSI Afterburner, after I press apply, the values I changed immediate return to default. Even the voltage curve adjustment has this effect.

    Edit: Inspector doesn't seem to allow changes, either. See the values on the slider are both 0 - it doesn't let me change anything.

    Exactly the same as I get, I thought I was doing something wrong, but it refuses to lock the setting.

    Does it do that on the GeForce driver as well?

    I think he's already on the GeForce driver, unless he changed back from when he took the GPU-Z screenshot. Hm.
