    I just wondered how stable the gtx 460m is

    Overclocked the GPU from 570/1140 to 745/1490 Mhz and the Memory
    from 1250 to 1625 Mhz and after playing 2 Hours CoD no problem...

    But after all im a little scared about how long this will go good..

    Anyone with exp. on this?

    You seem to have a decent card. Use EVGA Precision as it gives you more width for the sliders. You could probably decrease the Memory to 1500 and up the Core/Shader to 800/1600. You should get even better frames with this combo. Test it out.
