    hey guys

    im thinking about buying an m1710 as ive got a friend who works at dell who can get me a pretty nice discount. anyways, was wondering if its possible to overclock the 7950 in it?

    ive been torn over getting an xps m1710 and a toshiba x205 for ages, and ive heard you can nicely overclock the 8700gt in the x205. would be nice to OC the 7950.

    also, how long do think it will be before games are dx10 only? i reckon at least a year or so, probably longer.
