Just updated my signature to include my shitty specs. Currently running a Lenovo G780 laptop with an Intel i5-3210M CPU @ 2.50GHz with Intel HD Graphics 4000 and 6GB of RAM. But I'm planning to get this in the near future.
I decided to freshen up my pc with a new case and power supply, next up: water cooling . old: (imported from here) new: (imported from here) (imported from here) (imported from here)

My PC. Changed all blue LEDs to red. Cut a hole in the front for a fan. Wired said fan to PSU. Cut vent in the back off for more airflow. Plan to paint it up once there's some warmer weather, if I don't get a better case by then. The inside.

1.3v on that gpu is going to shorten its lifespan indefinitely. Just a heads up, try and stay under 1.25v if you want it to last.
Yeah, ik it's a risk. I'm not actually sure it's running at that though. The Sapphire OC utility says it is, but multiple HW monitors say it's at 1.25v anyway. Either way I'm hoping to upgrade within a year.
Also, (I hate to say it, being an OC guy myself) if it is running at 1.25Ghz like your sig says expect it to die within a year. My 7770 at 1300 died in under a year. :\ Apparently extreme overclocks can be dangerous even with no voltage change.
I'm not too concerned about it. I got it for a steal at $100 during black friday. I'm planning to do a full system upgrade after working some summer jobs.

Here is a little update for my specs: My laptop (ASUS X54C) Pentium B960 4GB 1333 RAM HD Graphics 2k W7 HP 64 bit Dad's new laptop (Dell Inspiron 14z, on it right now) Core i5 3317u 6GB RAM HD Graphics 4k W8.1 Old Dell desktop P4 Northwood 2.8 GHz Extreme Graphics 2 1.5 GB RAM XP Pro 32 New gaming desktop arriving tomorrow FX-6300 Sapphire R7 260X ASUS M5-A78L LX PLUS mobo 4GB G.skill Ripjaws X 1866 RAM (adding another stick later) WD Blue 1TB 7200RPM CM N200 case I remembered all of this off of the top of my head. Go me!
May I ask how my card at 1330+MHz would be dangerous then? It's running stock volts.... My 7770 never passed stock 1.2v either, but it died in under 8 months. Seems contradictory to what you said earlier.

Welp, I bought a new case. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811124155 Planning on a homebrew water cooling loop. Probably gonna end up milling my own water blocks... Unless I can get some cheap generic stuff.

You ran the snot out of your 7770 running folding on it for however many months.. Its a wonder it survived as long as it did at 1200. When I was speaking of your card running 1.3Ghz+ being dangerous I was saying that with the prior knowledge that you'll probably fold the crap out of it. For a dude who plays games like 3 times a week and its sat idle the rest of the time, well then no it would be fine. I am not ruling out clockspeed entirely from having a role, voltage just generally plays a fair larger one.
