Whenever your gpu reach 66 degree, it will reduce your gpu clock speed, hence performance suffered...... someone said u can disable it in the bios thou Thats something new...for me at least... and a lot of AW14 owners complaining the same thing! Throttling is NO GOOD!!! But then again, i played another round of Borderlands 2 last night... It played well till the end... So i m puzzled now!

WTF?!!!

I tried gaming in a very cold air conditioned room.... Still kene throttle!

When Darkness is the only Light U See. Senior Member 7,214 posts Joined: Oct 2006 From: Kamino	really really really weird..... now it boost up to 949MHz.... all i did was change the preferred graphics processor to nVidia instead of Auto-select. So now i guess say bye bye to battery! This post has been edited by xandman: Jul 16 2013, 11:00 PM

QUOTE(whyteaz @ Jul 16 2013, 11:23 PM) do u mean global setting in nvidia ctrl panel? yep
