I think the CPU has additional turbo bins but as the TDP is only 47W it will be quite useless to overclock it, I'm not even sure it would even hold the 4 Ghz turbo for more than a very short period.

You can oc gpu, I would not recommend any attempts. 1 fuck up and you throw away your mobo. Both CPU & GPU are soldered.... I wouldnt buy an Alienware computer if i were u
