    Hi

    I have the following machine

    Zepto 6625WD - 1.66Ghz - 2GB ram - 8600M GT 512MB - 1680 x 1050 15.4" - 160GB 7200rpm HD

    I was wondering whats the most you can over clock the video card and is it safe on laptops?

    Also is rivatuner the best option for a newbie?

    I;m trying to get Crysis working but its running so so slow

    Thanks

    :)

    its safe provided your temps stay safe. There is a ton of info already on the forums about overclocking I suggest you start searching. And yes, rivatuner is adiquate for ocing your card, its nice because it lets you oc the shader clocks inpedendantly.
