I'd go the motherboard/chip route. It costs about the same as the
overdrive, and you'd probably be able to squeeze a bit more performance
from it. (I've heard the overdrive chips are slower, and the new
motherboard would most likely be faster). Also, I'm not sure you can use a
Desktop CPU in a laptop.
