  1. I've got an idea for a unique build that I'm not sure if anyone has actually tried. I recently stumbled on this tutorial to overclock a 47xxmq laptop processor through a microcode hack and the benchmarks I've seen are equal to if not better than 47xx desktop processors. Which got me thinking this processor might actually make a decent gaming rig cpu if only it wasn't constrained by being in a laptop and using a laptop socket. Enter this guy, an industrial itx motherboard produced by ASRock for exactly the same socket as the 47xxmq series complete with a 16x pciexpress for the GPU. Slap 16gb laptop ddr3 in there, an ssd, and a desktop cooler and you've potentially got one of the fastest possible ddr3 systems. I've seen multiple people's benchmarks while still in their laptop but I haven't seen anyone actually try the desktop conversion yet.
