Hey guys, I'm not exactly new to overclocking, but neveder done anything more than "light" software/BIOS OC. I've got Toshiba P50-A-13C laptop with i7-4700MQ & nVidia GT 740m. It ain't much, but I feel there is more performance than it shows inside. My main focus is to overclock the hell out of that GPU, since it's seriously holding me back in games. I used NVinspector to go from 1058MHz to 1104MHz on the core, but it seems to be on the edge of stability. Attatching .xlsx file with HWinfo logs + graphs from 3DMark Skydiver benchmark. I'd be grateful for any additional info you can tell me guys. Thanks a lot Laptop Analysisv2.xlsx

Lowering the GPU temperature from 90°C to 60°C doesn’t impact performance now. Would you like advice on how to increase its cooling further, since it seems you already have an idea?

You should notice this speed or higher during a 3D Mark evaluation. To get the best results from your 4700MQ, download and share some images of ThrottleStop.
