    You must be plugged in at startup.

    There are two befits to turbo, one the 2d idle clocks are lower increasing battery life, two the 3d clocks are higher.

    You are going to need two programs to set the clocks and one to check: MSI afterburner, Nvidia inspector and GPU-Z. Open MSI afterburner, make sure overclocking is enabled by editing the ini file with the following:

    UnofficialOverclockingEULA = I confirm that I am aware of unofficial overclocking limitations and fully understand that MSI will not provide me any support on it
    UnofficialOverclockingMode = 1

    Now set the 3d clocks you want, now if you open a game at this point you will see that the real 3d clocks are still your old non turbo clocks. You can change this by now opening nvidia inspector with MSI afterburner open at the same time.

    Now your games are running at the turbo clocks, now tell MSI Afterburner to boot with these clocks and tell nvidia inspector (make sure the clocks agree with MSI afterburner) to create a clocks shortcut (it will put it on your desktop) and place it in your startup folder.

    Your machine will now start with turbo enabled, you wont be able to turn it off without removing the clocks shortcut from your startup folder and restarting your computer but your 2d clocks will now be lower and all overclocking programs should work normally.
