Asus Zenbook UX430UN with "standard" '1D10' 'N17S-G1-A1' GeForce MX150.-gpu z tests shows this.Then why it ranked below average with id12 version gpu sir plz reply ?

What happens when I overclock 1D12 variant to clock speeds of 1D10 ? Will this 'crippled' MX150 have the same performance as 'full' 1D10 ?
Is it possible to ex re-flash 1D12 with BIOS of 1D10 to enable full performance ?

If you overclock the 1D12 to 1D10 levels, the speed should be similar, but you have too look for temperature and power problems, as there is a reason why the lower clocked version is used (smaller cooling system, limited power supply).

I just purchased a Huawei Matebook X Pro (i7 with 512 SSD version). Though it comes with the MX-150 its the 1D12 version at the slower clock speed. You can tell -- very disappointing.

Hmm. Looking at the lower tier of MX150 scores, I suppose that makes the Iris Plus 655 in the MBP 13 substantially less disappointing for missing out on the MX150. There's still a boost with the lower wattage MX150, but a small one, and where it's significantly faster laptops are also understandably significantly larger.
