Dell XPS M1730 Restored and Overclocked

I found this old beast and restored it.

Specs:

C2D T9300

Dual 8800M GTX running in SLI

2x 512 GB SSD's running in Raid

AGEIA PhysX Card

I have applied Thermal Putty and PTM 7950 on Both Dies and etc.

Idle Temperatures dropped from 67c to 53c

and under full 3DMark Vantage Load a Peak of 76c.

I overclocked Core, Memory and Shader to 575/880/1438 and achieved a healthy 16% Performance Boost over stock clocks seems I have some silicon lottery on my hand, I did not check the date code on the dies or check if it is Milky I will do that further on.
