Hello Everyone,

I have a laptop with an Nvidia GT 620M. GPUZ reports that it has a turbo of 713 and a base speed of 625.

I use MSI Afterburner to overclock the RAM slightly and to monitor various aspects of the system. Whenever I run a game though, specifically in this case Bioshock Infinity, the core clock tops out at 625 and doesn't go further.

I know heat can prevent the card from turboing, but I took the system apart and applied better thermal paste and the temperature dropped several degrees, but it is still not doing it.

I thought about that but I am having trouble knowing for sure. I only have control over the RAM clock speed, or I would just push the core clock higher. But I reset overclocks to 0 so they aren't changed and same result.

I thought maybe Afterburner is locking it down at that speed, but its the same program monitoring for me, so I shut it off and I won't know if it goes up or not.

Oh I see it does have a method of saving to a file, so I could just stop and look at it after.
But again that program is glitchy on mobile systems and doesn't work on mine for more than a second before crashing. Only way I got information on my card from it was to read it after it froze.
