Did some "huge" CPU/GPU overclocking, is it safe?

Hi everyone, I've been messing around with my CPU/GPU and I just want to make sure I'm doing a proper job with the OC, I don't want anything to fail because of my stupidity. I use "huge" in the title because to me these OC is pretty big for a laptop =D

I did not tweak the voltage in BIOS for CPU, all stock.
I also did not tweak voltage using Sapphire Trixx for my 5870m crossfire.

I use setfsb to overclock my core i5 520m from 133mhz to 164mhz (23%), so with a 22 turbo multiplier it can do 3.2 dual core or up to ~3.6ghz single core. The temperature I'm not worried about because it idles at 40 and load is about 83 max under prime 95.

What I am worried about, is my ram, its speed is 1066mhz stock but it increase to about 1300mhz due to the cpu OC. Will my ram get kill from this?

Now for GPU, I can't believe I can OC so much out of the 5870m crossfire but I've been gaming at 850/1100 and both cards are stable at stock voltage. GPU 1 hit 98 degrees, GPU 2 is around 85 degrees under load. Is that safe?

Thanks for the help in advance!

 

I'm not entirely sure what kind of OC that is on that CPU but it sounds fine to me, as for the GPUs those temps are quite high but as long as it doesn't throttle then you should be alright, they will just die quicker though.

 

As long as everything is stable you should be fine.

I'm surprised you could get your cpu and ram so high without overvolting either of them. My suspicion is that it really isn't as stable as you might think it is. After using the computer for several days you probably will start finding instabilities. If that happens, overvolt em.

As for the gpu OC. 98C is fine, but hot. Their thermal limits are ~115C. Just keep a very close eye on the temps.

 

Your fine, but may want to repast just to cool things down. I have a 540M that I've benched. I benched it with a mod to overvolt it to 1.4v, and was benching it at 4.117GHz and I have benched the GPU's at over 1010MHz Core and 1315MHz mem. Your system, as long as temps are fine, should be ok.

All my stuff is still kicking.

 

1010mhz core

 

Yea, it was on Dice, if you check hwbot.org and search 5870 (choose mobility) You can see my dual card Vantage bench. It was pretty sweet Otherwise I'd have to dig it up

Heres the link.

yeah I haven't ran any stability test for long at those overclocks. For GPU I played crysis 2 and witcher 2 for around 30 minutes and it runs great, the CPU has no problem too but once I hit 171 it will BSOD and crash.

I really want to get the 920xm but I've never disassemble a laptop before to swap CPU, is it difficult compared to desktop (I've built my own)? Also, I feel right now my CPU when OC is running very well, constant 3.2ghz dual core is amazing for a mid-range chip and its temp are great... how far can the 920xm be pushed? can it do like 3.4ghz on all 4 cores? I'm only disappointed in GTA 4 because the CPU bottlenecks the system.

p.s how do I check my power adapter's rating? I am pretty sure it is 240W but just want to make sure, does the m18x have a 330W adapter?

 

You can push the 920XM up to 3.6Ghz (I have on mine) but I had it paired with a 6990m in my M15x which caused throttling. In the M17x R2 it may be different. I have seem some seriously great things with it. Plus overclocking isn't just with the FSB but also multiplier manipulation using throttlestop.
