Everyons always sez u cant OC a laptop without killing it. Well I say theyr full of it. So long as u proceed with RESTRAINT. I would also only advise an OC if u have a 17"+ laptop. I am currently using a Dell inspiron 1720 with an 8600m GT.  Factory clocks : 475/950/400,  Current OC: 625/1250/525  I have had this OC for 2yrs now with no ill effects (my system doesnt get turned off, only restarted). My system sits on a wood desk with no cooling pad. Gaming temps B4 OC: 67c,  Gaming temps after OC: 82c. My 3DMark06 score has jumped from 3400 to 4900. Granted this might be an unusual case (have heard these 8600 have a bad case of melting down). If u OC, do it in VERY small increments, and try using ATI Tool to scan for artifacts. I would also advise getting the latest drivers from laptopvideo2go, and the newest Rivatuner for the actual OC.

Its hard to pick just one that got me hooked, but Id have to say that Crusader: No Remorse, C&C, Duke3D, & the first NFS were what got me really into gaming.
