    Hello,
    I have Y910 with i7 6820hk cpu and i want to try overclocking.

    Firstly i wanna buy cooling pad with fans below my cpu and gpu fans and i want to repaste cpu with Grizzly Kryonaut.

    I'm pretty sure most have, hoewever given that you have a Lenogo Y910 I don't think you'll get far. Not only that but the CPU isn't exacly known to breach high clocks.

    you can download XTU and undervolt for now.

    I have already done Undervolting. Temperature is max 80 C ingames with 3.2Ghz when before it was 96 with Turbo 3.6Ghz - 3.7Ghz.

    But im buying cooling pad with big 140mm fans below my cpu and gpu and also i will repaste cpu and gpu with Grizzly Kryonaut , so it should give me few less degrees :)

    Sorry man, but coolerpad won't bring your temps down to the point where OC is an actual option.You can try and get conductonaut and lapp your heatsink, then see if the temps are good enough to consider OC.
