    I read an article here about the CQ60 Wal-Mart had last year. The writer said it was pretty overclockable and stable without getting hot enough to cause problems.

    I'm new to notebooks.. didn't even know you could overclock them - they are not like a desktop.. no room for special cooling devices like water pumps.

    I need info on possibly overclocking everything I can... I read someplace if you overclock the multiplier don't overclock the GPU cus it will overheat.. ( or something like that.. i really didnt understand it.. perhaps someone knows hat i'm talking about.)

    I assume this is all software overclocking and I would not want to do any other type.. However this video does not come with ATI Overdrive in CCC

    What are my options?
