Nvidia Disabled GTX 900m Overclocking with new Drivers

It seems that with Nvidia's newest Geforce 347.29 drivers that overclocking is disables on Nvidia's newest GTX 900 Series Mobile GPUs. Nvidia have said that overclocking a notebook that users risk doing serious harm to their systems, which could result in reduced system life or worse, a broken notebook.

Understandably users on the Nvidia forums have been very disappointed by Nvidia's choice to disable overclocking, saying that users should be allowed to choose what they do with their systems, especially given how cool running Nvidia's current Maxwell GPUs run.

Nvidia said that mobile overclocking of the GTX 900m series was a bug in the Nvidia Drivers, which was fixed to safeguard for systems rather than a restriction.

It is unlikely that Nvidia will re-enable overclocking on their mobile GPUs.
