Overclocker16 Posted September 26, 2003 Posted September 26, 2003 1, don't. Laptops get hot enough as it is. 2, can't. Never seen a BIOS on a laptop allow you to OC. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Torx Posted September 26, 2003 Posted September 26, 2003 they are correct. Â sometimes however, laptops don't use mobile cpus but use the desktop version. Â I had a Compaq Pressario 1200ca (I hated it thuroughly). I took a T9 and opened it up as soon as the warranty expired and I found a socket ... so I stuck a PIII 1GHz and that was kinda fun till the soundcard died... again.

bigred Posted September 26, 2003 Posted September 26, 2003 you can oc the asus and msi brand notebooks. however it's NOT something I'd do. like everyone said heat is an issue. and then you cram all that into a little space like that... not pretty.

GmAz Posted September 26, 2003 Posted September 26, 2003 Yup, that is why small desktop cases lockup, too much heat, think of the poor laptops....poor little buggers. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ximo Posted September 27, 2003 Posted September 27, 2003 i have a hp XE3 celeron 700mhz and i rly dont care if it dies on me!!! but i want to try oc it... i tried installing a mbm to see the cpu temps but i does not detect anything (even if i sure there is a probe bc the fan turn on and off depending if its hot or not) and since there are no options in the bios... wuts a program i could use to change the frequenzies???

hardwarefreek Posted September 27, 2003 Posted September 27, 2003 Pointless thread, it should be called " I'm a nutter & wanna fry my chip" If u wanna do that give the laptop to someone w/out a PC that'll appreciate it & get them started, you may be able to flod 'em old hardware later on so that'll make it an investment.
