    What's your highest room temp when you tested this after the oc ?

    Do you see artifact on the graphic, bluescreen, lock ups ? In terms on CAD or any 3D related modeling does it improve ?

    I am using a recent 2012 m6600, got it last two weeks comes with DVD-RW slot-load, how did you fit a 500 GB HDD onto the DVD slot ?

    Does dell sell the brackets? I know the old 2005 IBM T42p (before Lenovo) does have that bracket to replace the DVD drive with HDD.

    my room temp is 23c ish. I see few arti on furmark, but NO CRASHING, 100% STABLE.. just constant throttling.

    you can get one at newmodeus. A few people didnt like 100% the quality. It works I mean...

    as long as the temps are fine it is fine. If the voltage is too high, it just wont boot.

    My M6600 with a 4000M, and with your overclock spec, my windows rating for the graphic card are both 7.6, however, it can't hold, some short time into GPU stressful tasks, the freqences automatically drop to GPU: 202MHz, DRAM: 1250MHz, Shader: 405MHz, and lock it there, I have to restart the machine to get it back to normal.

    That is throttling. Probably due to power or thermal issues. All gpus are different with what they can hold.

    Mine passed no throttling test with flying colors, I remember.
