    Hello Everybody,


    I have some Questions, and I hope I am in the right Forum to get some good answers or advice.

    I have an Clevo M980 NU Gamer Laptop I have bought it 2009, I know it is an very old Laptop, but it was very expensive and I will try to push it a little bit to have some more ” days” fun.

    My Questions are:


    1. Is there a possibility, to get a newer Bios then this which was on it as I have bought it 2009?


    And if yes can somebody send it to me, will it make the machine faster?


    2. Is there a possibility, to get overclock software to boost the Intel chips?


    I think the 2 GTX 280 cards are strong enough, but the chip is not strong enough


    Is there somebody who have an good Idea to update this system, without breaking it or spending a lot of money.

    If I am only able to spend a lot of money to upgrade the System or Hardware.

    It will better to buy a new Laptop, but first of all I will Try to solve this Problem with your help.


    Thank you and best Regards

    Pacolito
