    Hello,

    I wanted to ask if anyone has had any luck overclocking the P7450 on the Asus G50?

    The asus direct console overclocks it from 2.13GHz to 2.35GHz but I just wanted to see if I could get any more juice out of it but to no avail....

    I've tried around the 2.4x mark and it just seems to BSOD after a while. :mad:

    Any help is appreciated

    I could only get mine to under 2.4 stable. However, I was using the stock RAM and that was probably the bottleneck.

    Yeah, I'm using everything on stock. So far, I got it on 2399MHz and it seems to be stable...Since I'm still here :D

    Except it will probably BSOD when doing anything intensive. Even at that clock, I could play a game for an hr or so before it BSOD.

    I could get my G50vt's P8700(2.53GHz) to 3.05GHz stable playing CoD.
