I just received my laptop back from Alienware Technical Support. Overclocking works now. The problem was with my motherboard.
So what is the recommendation for Overclocking? I heard 700/1400/1000 is suitable for M14x.
Help me out please & thank you.

Personally I have it at 750/1500/1080 and haven't had any problems.

Thank you very much sire. I will do that too.
Thinking of getting a cooler too. -
I have it OC at 780/1560/1080, and it is very stable, if you install a modded VBIOS, you even able to OC more than that, however it tend to be very unstable, anything over 850/1700/1100 will crash most games. A cooler also a good choice and if you want to reduce more heat, you can also try disable the Turbo Boost in the BIOS setting, I know it is not relate to the GPU, but it will help reduce heat.

its actually related to the gpu, since the CPu+GPU are on the same fan, so im guessing with less cpu heat, the gpu will be cooler too.
-
I use the core at 700. I use to do 750, but it wasn't too stable, I say stay at 700. It'll put less strain on your gpu and it won't ever crash. Plus you really can't tell a difference quality wise between them.

Thank you very much guys. I will be purchasing a cooling fan asap. My palm gets hot because of the system. Only thing I dislike about M14x.

I use 700/1400 in all games without problem
