- Currently have the processor clocked to 3.6 Ghz, with temperatures in the low to high 60s under load.

- GPU mod was to help with overheating issue that was caused when using graphics heavy programs. This mod allowed me to have manual control over the fans.

- System can dual boot (Windows 7 & OSX)
