    Hello

    It has a HM55 chipset.... its a HP Pvaillion Dv6 3077a.... i5 530m with a 5650 ati graphics card. ty cooling definatly,, but the beast of a cooling dock that I have its crazy powerfull, even with the Graphics card OC'd it doesnt get much hotter than Idle... so heat is not an issue right now, just need to learn which option to choose using Set FSB,,,, and possibly what settings others are using.

    I seen one user with the same CPU achieved 3.3 mhz with his i5,,, that would be killer if I could get results like that.
