If you are looking for further improvements try to get someone to unlock the 135mhz limits in both mem and core like I did. Then you make your tests directly in oc software rather than hardware.
Guys. Dont push it to Hard on vBios. Put clocks around 1300-1350 on vBios and then use the 135mhz limit to explore. And I seriously advise.. . Do not go crazy with memory clocks like more than 2635Mhz... Otherwise you'll get bsod at Windows login and a very bad time in getting laptop to work again...
Not voltage values, you need to unlock vbios
Hello there once again! It's been sometime since I've came here to check for updates. Well I've read your last PM's sent. Regarding the Mem clocks #Zixel It needs to be unlocked since they have a 150mhz~ limit to Oc, I've managed to get mine at 3200Mhz stable even being Elpida but my vBios is unlocked in both core and mem. For that you need more help than I can give. As I've already said I had the luck as Piro of getting a great modder unlocking my vBios, and unfortunately it's only compatible with this machine.
Now regarding #EtaCarianaeSC question, First of all, to start modding your vBios you need to make a backup of your current Bios with Afuwin64, last version prefered. Then mmtool to extract the vBios module out of the Bios, mod it and later replace the original one with the modded and save it. Finally flash it again with afuwin64. As I've already told, this voids warranty, can and will brick your laptop if any value goes higher than your Gpu can handle, Like mem clocks above 2635Mhz~ and core above 1350Mhz~. I Would suggest oc the core in an interval between 1250-1300Mhz. Since you'll later have a 135Mhz headroom to explore. This chip struggles above 1400Mhz and not mentioning the fact that it heats up like hell.
Guys be free to ask anything you want.
Kind regards from Portugal

Thank you guys so much!
I successedededed, and it wouldn't be possible without you.
Downgraded to the infamous beta bios - Check.
Overclocked the **** out of the 960m - Check.
Happy as **** - Check.
Repaste the notebook - Awaiting.
Find the ninja cutting onions - Awaiting.
1.3 ghz base, allowed slider to play with the 135mhz, ram +50 nothing too pushing.
THANK YOU!
P.S Does anyone else notice that the battery is being drained while OCed? :D. Not only that but if you remove it you get into the realm of 30ish % less performance.

I'm happy to see that you succeeded, have fun and play safe 😉
About the battery issue it's kinda normal, when you exceed the watt's it can draw from ac it drains from batt 🙂

A fast answer would involve gpu and cpu temps. They can and will affect performance, also check if the difference is in physx score.
To undervolt at the voltage table, you only need to change the three first sliders from P16 state. Too low and brick, to high and another paperweight 🙂 Anyway the max you should be able to go is 1200mv since it's "limited by chip" I guess? or atleast I think so. I would advise something between 1143.8mv to 1193.8mv being the last the stock one.
Also the Gpu will adapt the vcore according to the clock you're using.
Have fun 🙂
