What would I do....
1. Buy a Uninterruptible Power Supply w/ Automatic Voltage Regulating
2. House the XPS in a Area with Good Air Circulation, and Easily Cleaned.
3.Double/Triple Check Cords,etc....And then Clean up all Non Essential Materials.
4. Complete Full Setup and Initialize Final Check Before Initial Power On.
5. Sit in PHat ASS Leather Chair and Crack a Cold One,and crank the speakers up to piss off the neighbor!

Check it out man. You can get MADDDD performance increase by switching to the Omega drivers. I went from a measly 10510 in 3dmark to 12313 with just that. I got some more by turning off non-essential processes, but I didn't wanna leave them off so I turned them back on. I ended up with about 12.4 when it was all said and done....(but im happy with 12.3)
