    Ok....Well, Ive been posting alot lately on my still-not-shipped XPS M1530...

    This is probably my last question (maybe one more but I don't think so lol)...

    So, anybody here has overclocked their XPS M1530 and can tell me the temperature at which it gets to while playing Crysis or any hardcore game?

    ty

    OC to 685/1000, temp is around 75-80 C on Crysis after playing for an hour or two. Doesn't get any higher than this. 6100 marks in 3DMark06.
