Public bug reported:

This bug has been present for me in all driver versions supporting my
GPU in both 12.04 and 12.10, the clock frequencies have been the same. I
am using a GeForce660m, which is supposed to have a graphics clock of
835mhz and a memory clock of 4000mhz. The nVidia power-miser settings
list only the following options:

0 - 405mzh core, 405mhz memory
1 - 405mhz core, 800mhz memory
2 - 405mhz core, 2000mhz memory

There's at least one other person with my same card having the same
issue: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2067648

I don't know what the power-miser settings are supposed to be, but all
three having the same clock speed and memory topping out at half of it's
maximum speed seems very wrong.
