    Ok update
    First of all its an ES
    Bricked it once after trying clevo 470m vbios
    Hardware flashed it back to original
    Now working with 344.80_win8x64 and custom inf file from laptopvideo2go.com
    Goes to 1920x1080
    Gpu at 405mhz max with overclocking tool (nvidiaInspector) and voltage 088v
    Next timings at 540mhz and at 810Mhz freezes or crashes the driver
    Memory at 405Mhz Next timing crashes driver
    Of course huge ammounts of heat Have a desktop fan blowing under it Keeps cold and noisy
    Modded bios 1.07 flashed normally
