    your video card rating is 6.9 ! ? the rating for a stock gtx460m is 7.0 and for overclocked gtx460m 800-1600-1600 is 7.2 ....

    you got a nice rating for the video card but i dont know about the cpu and the ram....

    Thats really a great score, also having such cpu clocked at 3ghz surely helps alot.
    Congrats mate. gtx260m imho are one of the best cards made from nvidia. Its balanced, well powered, and takes almost anything without too much issues.
    Im coming from an XPS M1730 which had 2 9800m GTX sli, that basically are the same GTX260m that you own.
    When sli works good, those cards are really awesome.

    Can you run 3d vantage and 3dmark06. I would like see the results you can get with such a kind of an overclock.

    Oh it's been sometime.. By the way, the 460M OC'ed usually does 7.3 on WEI even with old 273.33..

    Is your 460m stable on gaming at 820-825 core clock atleast, with 1640-1680 memory? Try it also with the latest 280.19 or 280.26whql..

    I think even at 815 core / 1625 mem you'll get 7.3 already.. The 280 driver gave 1 fps boost on metro 2033 and TW2 which is nice. There's 280.26 whql driver now and I'm about to install and see how it is..

    280.26 installed... My only comment on the 280 drivers is that they're hotter GPU-wise when browsing actively, like scrolling fast and keep going to different links. The 275's are sitting at 38*C-43*C when browsing actively, ..while 280's can reach 52*C. Usually it's from 45-52*C when scrolling fast and going on different links quickly. But once you read and halt for awhile, the 280 does go down to 39 - 40*C GPU temp.

    1 FPS extra (plus) on the 280's. Funny I've OC'ed up to 833/1730 memory on 275.50 with Mark 06 of 16,325@1024p, yet the 280 with just 825/1685 with only 16,182 Mark 06 still has 1 fps more (i.e. on TW2 and Metro 2033).

    turn off your hw accelleration in browser to lower browsing temps

    Okay it worked... So it's mandatory to "Use software rendering instead of GPU rendering" on browser when using the 280.19 or 280.26 driver. It's a must!

    38*C to 39*C GPU temp when browsing. Without it the core clock spikes up when ever the scroll wheel is turned. It doesn't happen though on 275s'..
