    what kind of stable overclocks are you guys getting in your XPS M1530.

    last night I was able to reach 700mhz core and 900mhz ram and was able to run 3dmark06 3 times with these settings. i got unstable at around the 715/910 mark so i throttled back a little.

    highest 3dmark06 score as of now is 5754 with 169.28 drivers.

    Thats a little high. You should only be around 5200-5300K unless your running a tweaked XP Pro install ;)

    i got the result in my sig with core 700 and memory at 850

    but then my screen is only wxga so if 3dmark was ran at the normal benchmark resolution it would probably lower the score by about 4-500 points i think
