    why overclock the GPU.... wait and check GPU temps when under full load first... then if temps are low you may consider an overclock...

    but with the recent NVIDIA report about GPU's having an "UNKNOWN" heat issue... i'd be very leary of overclocking until i made sure your GPU is not one effected by the heat issue....

    i know everyone wants more FPS more realisam in thier games... but is it worth melting your laptop for a few weeks of eye-candy!
