Machine: G4 PowerBook (Alu, 2004), 15, GHz, 1GB RAM, ATI 9700/64MB, OS X 10.4. Increased processor clock speed to 450 (+15%) and memory speed to 225 (+11%), so far no problems. MS Word windows behaved somewhat erratically, and it appeared to me that my PowerBook just sucked the power from the battery. Then I underclocked the processor to 126 MHz and memory to 63 MHz. No idea if this are the real numbers, but indeed, I saw a decreased in fps in No Limits (a rollercoaster simulator), but even with the highest resolution, screen size detail, bit depth etc, the framerate rarely dropped below 20 fps, most of the time it was around 24-26 which made no difference in terms of user experience compared to 40+ fps with the card "cranked up". But most important, the ventilator remained silent (while it starts almost immediately with the overclocked card..). Perhaps this little app turns our to be more useful than intended by the author
FYI: does not work on MBP - Version: 1.0.6b, 5/27/2006 02:18PM PST

Not sure if it's mentioned anywhere, but it doesn't work on an Intel MBP.

Gives visible (mostly positive) effect with most games and apps when giving 10% boost to the v-card. It works nice.
But I wouldn't suggest giving much more than max 10%, as higher numbers may damage the graphic card permanently - especially if you don't provide extra cooling.
For laptop-users: You can use this tool to lower energy-consume of the graphic card by lowering the graphic CPU-speed. While in other hand, you can expect extra power-consume when you increase the speed.
