    overclocked to perform the same as the 8600M GT? this is for a laptop btw,because i cannot afford to get a 8600M GT,if i do decide to get a 8600M GT i will have to save up again =/ (this is for the Vostro 1500,or if you guys say i can overclock it the Vostro 1400)

    First there would be too much heat
    Second, the overclock is wayyyy to high for the stock voltage.
