Overclocking my G60vx kills my 3d Mark score?

When i didn't overclock my laptop it got around 10000 but when i did using setFSB ad EVGA precision my score went down to 6k? lol I'm wondering why.

Also would it be beneficial to my laptop to put a T9900 in it? Cause i'd like some desktop like power and portability.

 

Go for a p-series laptop (lower voltage) and overclock it. It'll get performance better than (or equal, at least!) for much cheaper ... and probably cooler too! (or go for a Core2Quad).

But the difference between the p8700 or t9600 up to t9900 isn't that great.

 

How are your load temps? Overclocking can cause overheating and when that happens, your GPU and/or CPU will downclock itself to prevent damage. If you're hitting 105C on your GPU, try take your OCing down a couple notches.

 

I was thinking about an E8335, or if i knew where to sell this and get an G73

 

How high are you trying to OC it?
Not all CPU's OC at the same level, you have to bump it gradually to see what a safe level is for your CPU.
A T9900 works beautifully with the G60VX, using Power4Gear bumps it up to 3.4Ghz and I get about 12500 in 3DMARK06.

 

Nice, it's a bit expensive (T9900) i hook up to a huge external 1920x1080p monitor. And yeah i think i'm going to get the E8335 i have worked on many desktops but how hard is it to switch this CPU in here?

 

Not hard at all.
Just get some good quality thermal paste and it's a straight forward swap.
Just be careful with the heatsink, it requires some wiggling to remove.

 

Thanks! I have thermal paste me and my friend put on his 980 lol i think it'll do work! yeah i opened it up the other day it looks so crowded!

 

It is a little intimidating at first.
One more thing the screws around the CPU and GPU are numbered take them off in reverse order and when re-installing put them 1,2,3 etc,etc.
Good luck!
Oh yeah, don't forget to repaste the GPU, it helps a lot with the temps.
