I think you might be better off upgrading to something a bit better, the card you have is very low end and will not gain much from being overclocked and may not even be possible anyway.

Do yourself a favour and get a good mid range card like the 9600GT or GTX250

If you're low on budget get on over to newegg.com or microcenter (if you have one nearby) the 9800GT is a decent card, with the gtx 250 coming next in mind as a decent 'cheaper' card.

OCing btw could be done easily with EVGA Precision, however you need to have an eVGA card.

Correction, EVGA Precision can be used with any Card, I use it with my Ino3D GTX260 and it works great. ;)

cool

O that's good to hear, it is a nice program. Do you need an eVGA product or just a eVGA membership now (with their forums)

Yes it is a good mid range card but I don't think Newegg deliver outside the US, although I wish they would.

If your on a low budget, save up for the ATi 4890. Best bang for the buck. It's USD$250 on that website you pointed us at. Go check it out at NewEgg.

That computer looks pretty good. It has no real bottlenecks, so games should look nice overall. But keep in mind that it is a laptop. You could get a desktop with twice the power for half the price (Ignore this if you need a laptop for work or school or whatever).

Although, the nVidia 9650M doesn't sound like it's the best. You should check to see what game FPSes are with that chip.

Johngalt, what did you edit in my post?

If you don't feel like switching to ATi, go with the nVidia GTX 260, I hear it's pretty good.
