As a notebook technician, I'll simply throw in my two cents here. Overclocking a notebook is idiotic, at best, and damaging at worst. Overclocking your card is a surefire way to void your warranty, and a very good way to damage the video card.

Notebook computers are very compact, and heat management is a top priority. Even a bit of dust can create an overheating situation, and overclocking any component just increases the amount of heat.

Of course, the final option is yours, but don't expect any notebook manufacturer in the world to honor your warranty if the overclocking attempt fails.

 

^ Yeah, thats great.

Except I totally disagree with you, it is not idiotic, it will not void your warranty if they do not know you OC, and if you damage your GPU thats a risk you took when you undertook over clocking.

We really do not need someone to tell us not to over clock or that is is idiotic, if we want to, we will do it, we understand the risk.

Thank you

 

I disagree also, notebook overclocking isn't idiotic. Some boutique OEMs even have it standard on their laptops these days.

 

Hahaha.... typical of you technicians.

I swear they're paid to say this Once I asked my dad, who works at Intel, whether or not he would help me OC my P4. He gave me some 10 minute BS story of why OCing is bad, and when he finished I said "That's not the real reason, is it?" He said "No. Intel just wants you to buy better processors instead of OCing yours "

 

OC your P4 on a desktop is perfectly fine and dandy but i totally agree with the technician it is not wise at all to overclock a laptop..maybe a little is ok but when you waste$1000 on a fried laptop,i hate to say we told you so.

 

This thread is getting a bit argumentative and the link in the second post should sum up where to go to find OC help. If you need more help then post in that thread, thanks.
