Most laptops dont have overclocking options in the bios. Overclocking a laptop isnt a good idea, they're already hotter than desktops.

Without notepal for ex. overclocking is NOT good, but if you still want to try you can check this out:

'Cause BIOS don't have enough options, RightMark CPU Clocky Utility can help you to override that wink.gif

I wouldn't recommend overclocking laptops. The advanced heat it produces will cook a laptop even more than normal. The performance gains on average would be minimal at best.

Hello again

I just got on neowin after some while
i managed to clock it without making it hotter (vista score is 0.5 higer smile.gif ) its on 3.0 now.. and i got it on the same readings with heat etc

i used Ntune since there is an Nvidia Nforce chipset and a Nvidia graphics card

soo thanks for responding but it works for me smile.gif

i didnt do anything dramatic tho... so dont worry.... yet

OC'ing laptop is not a good idea. The most important thing being that its difficult to get better cooling for it.
