    I just got the Acer 751 with Atom Z520 CPU. Normally that would be a 1.33GHz CPU but Acer has clocked it at 1.24GHz. Is there anyway I can make it faster?

    Not sure if this is helpful, but there was a thread about Acer overclocking here. Granted, it concerned a different model, but it mentioned some fairly general-purpose laptop overclocking software a ways down.

    Also, why can't I send PMs? Sorry to be off-topic -- I would PM about it, but I can't :p

    It may have to do with you being a new member. Thanks for the help.
