PC Mark 2005 and Sandra 2005 show little performance difference between the factory-overclocked and custom-overclocked settings.

Conclusion

We were lead to believe that the factory-overclocked XPS 720 H2C had more than enough room for determined overclockers to take it to the next level of performance Compare Prices on Dell XPS Notebooks, but this simply wasn't the case with our sample. Restrictive BIOS settings and components that were already near their limits prevented us from seeing any noticeable performance gains, so this system should be considered an as-delivered solution like any other Dell.

We look forward to tomorrow's article, where we will attempt to extract far more impressive performance gains from our own high-end build.
