    Hello. I normally use msi afterburner for a quick overclock for my gpu.

    Is there also an app that I can overclock my processor? I don't plan to increase voltage. Just want to increase it slightly. I did do a search and found CPUFSB but the topic was in 2005.

    Can't overclock without a K-series CPU, and even then adjustments are limited to the turbo ratio for all cores.

    On your 720QM you could use setfsb only if the pll on your motherboard is supported :)
