I don't know if this has been asked before but Im a PC guy and seriously considering the 2.4 MBP for when i go to college in the fall. And i've always over clocked my gaming pcs and i was wondering if its possible to OC the CPU in OS X as well as the RAM and GPU. Is there any sort of BIOS on macs. I know you can do it through Vista or XP but do those clock speeds travel back over to OS X after you restart into that operating system using boot camp?

If your moving around, I don't see why you would want to overclock it anyway, both of them are powerful enough as it is, plus I think it would heat up much more if you overclock it
Anyway, not sure if the settings would stay intact, it saves in the BIOS and not sure if you can access the BIOS when starting XP, it just goes straight to the loading screen.. I think -
ok i dont know if i will do it or not i just wan to know if you can within the Mac OS

You might, with the software for the graphic card
Like, I usually go into the nVidia control panel and overclock it there. -
yeah thats what im thinking. or is riva tuner or anything like that available for Mac OS x and can you even get to the nvidia control panes is OS x?

I'm pretty sure you can, when you install the latest drivers or any drivers for that matter, you probably get the application for it too.. like on PC's
