    Hi! If you check the sony vaio forums it seems that Amal77 has been able to mod the bios of the sony vaio S series so that the core clock of the gt 640m le is running at a whopping 900-1100mhz! This is on par with gt 650 standards. I'd rather buy a Lenovo than a Sony, but I was wondering if we had the same bios mod for our gt 640m here at lenovo? Is it possible? That mod really makes the gt 640m twice as powerful and just as stable!

    Do you have a GPU-Z screenshot? Is it running DDR3 or GDDR5 memory?
