Pushing the Limits (Or Not)
If the NEO 17 didn't offer some type of overclocking it just wouldn't be complete. Built into the performance profiling are a trio of clock modes for you to take advantage of, and each has several options that are customizable. You can flip between these profiles easily with the button next to the power button. Unfortunately there are no direct clock controls for the AMD APU; rather we get to play with power limits. For the NVIDIA GPU however, we do get to play with clock controls, with up to 200 MHz additional available for the GPU clocks, and 1800 MHz of additional clock speed for the memory, available with the OASIS connected to the NEO 17.
The NEO 17 does offer fully manual tuning for each of its fans independently, so you can tune each to your liking, but I was more than happy with the default profiles that offered very little fan noise in nearly every situation, and the hardware wasn't constantly at its temperature limit. That means that tossing in the added power use from increased clock options was possible without much fuss at all; just increase the clocks. Without the OASIS cooler attached, you have the option of 120 MHz on the GPU core and 1200 MHz on the memory, which my particular NEO 17 had zero issues running for hours. With the OASIS cooler, I could run the core up to that 200 MHz limit, but the memory I could only increase to 1250 MHz. Running 3DMARK's Speed Way benchmark got me legendary status, as shown below:
