Weeks ago, I created a topic on Laptop Overclocking following my query on how safe is it to permanently overclock it (by enabling High Performance mode in BIOS) but i was scolded, mocked by several really uncivilised forummers saying how brainless i didnt even know wat i was talking abt- laptop overclocking? hell, the topic was even closed by the moderator. why the hell such a big fuss

ACtually i dono whether laptop can oc onot but my last topic confirm me ppl don believe it can b done on laptop. if then, wht is tis i see below?

actually, by the small 10% increase, i don think its worth the risk. Too small an increment for a cost.

ive a few photos to back tis but ive to learn how to post a image lol

Well not having seen the original thread I cant say what was the nature of the flaming you received but you've obviously proven that it is POSSIBLE. Though safe or not is another story. Meh.....but I think you shouldnt really bother about oc-ing with a laptop

More than that, I'm interested to know if its even stable. Try running prime95 torture test. Also particularly interested to know the temp.

I do overclock my laptop last time. Default frequency is 1.60GHz. Highest stable clock reached is 2.0GHz; 1.036V. Temperature of processor reached 89C. Fan duty is 80%, as reported by embedded controller. It was way too hot and noisy to be turned on all day long.

My usual everyday clock is 1.76GHz@1.084V. Temperature reaches 84C at full load. Fan load is 50-60%, depending on room temperature. Makes lots of difference when folding. Slight increase in performance when gaming.

Now, I'm back to default clock speed to reduce noise from fan. 1.60GHz@ 1.036V. Temperature is about 69 to 76C.

IMHO, I think it's not really worth to overclock a laptop. It produces a lot more of heat, for a small increase of performance.

IMHO, overclocking laptops might be worthwhile if you need something done fast, but only for short stints (not for gaming though). The temp is scary man..low temp solder on components might even be starting to melt already..

Can, I've seen people do it on the web (google around). Usually will have much shorter battery life, and hardware modding is usually required, which voids warranty for sure. But sometimes its worth it-the few cases I've seen included a few low end PDA when OCed matched a high end PDA.

im not sure this considered as OC, but when i first bought my lapie Compaq V3119, there was an option in nVidia control panel to increase somethin's Mhz.... when i increased that, laptop default 1.6Ghz increases up to 2.0Ghz.

Im not OC guy, so i dun know how to check all the data n stuff... but one thing i noticed was temp was very very hot, n if i dun use cooler pad... there would be burning smell from the processor. after 2 days i set it back to 1.6 coz its still brand new half month old laptop. Now dun hav that option coz use Vista.

yes, and can be easily done

however, it eats too much batt and runs hot. and the extra speed gained serves no purpose, unless you can find an PPC software that overwhelms the 600+ Mhz advanced xScale Proc (with WMMX summore)


edit: to get on topic, I have no idea why you sais ppl told you oc'ing a laptop is not possible. AFAIK, most alienware lappie are factory oc'ed

and fairly new laptop can even be oc'ed easily

but the trend for laptop is more to UNDERCLOCKING. it's soo famous now that Intel decided to lock the lowest voltage a normal mobile proc can run to avoid disrupting sales to its very expensive Ultra Low Voltage cpu's. underclocking will increase batt life significantly, which in mobile computing is paramount

edit2: biggest challenge to laptop oc'ing is the temperature - due to the compact cooling feature, extensive cooling is not possible. heck, running a normal clocked proc at 60+C is considered normal in lappie.
