Nvidia Quadro nvs 140m

#1 Post by Perdu » Sun Apr 06, 2008 6:09 pm

I was doing a little research into this video card and it apears it can be significantly overclocked. Is there any downside to over-clocking?

If Lenovo can tell that it has been overclocked during any warranty service, they might not honor your warranty?

It would be nice if Lenovo updated their driver on the 140m to help things out a bit ..... the present driver they use is somewhat lame.

Overclocking too much can ruin your video card (happened to me once on a custom built desktop many years ago).

Overclocking a little will probably shorten the lifespan of the GPU.

And it cause more power consumption and heat emission.

This is for th 570M, but it will work exactly the same way for your card.

Well, based on the feedback in this thread I am not going to overclock it, but if you want to you can do it with RivaTuner, which is free.
