Nvidia disables GTX 900M overclocking

With new Geforce R350 and R352 drivers

It appears that Nvidia really does not want to enable GPU overclocking on its Geforce GTX 900M series notebook GPUs as the company has once again disabled overclocking with R350 and R352 drivers.

Discovered by Notebookreview community, it appears that Geforce R350 and R352 drivers, such as the recently released Geforce 352.86 drivers again introduces the overclocking block, or as community is calling it the "clock-block".

Earlier this year, Nvidia has did the same thing by disabling overclocking with Geforce 347.29 WHQL drivers, claiming that overclocking was not a feature but rather a bug. After the community discovered it and gave Nvidia their piece of mind, Nvidia has again re-enabled overclocking on Geforce 347.88 drivers but it appears it was short-lived.

Back then, Nvidia claimed that Geforce notebooks were not designed to support overclocking, while users argue that they should be able to do with their GPU what they want, despite it voids the warranty.
