I updated the original post with a how to for GPU OC'ing. I may add some screen shots later.

Edit: This thread looks like it's getting a bunch of views but no one is posting.

Cute and wonderful kids NWguru

Wondering if the backpack manufacturers are trying to tell us something about making sure that taking your kids out when shopping - a good carrier

Thanks qhn. I don't know if the pics show the true size of the bag. My 3 year old kept falling backwards when he picked it up. lol! I haven't tried yet but I'm sure both my laptops would fit inside easily.

Actually that's what I told my wife. Looks more like someone's luggage rather than a backpack. I can't image students today carrying something this big.

My kids carry such a big backpack for the school that I am totally floored. Like an army pack, and going on sortie.
