    Laptop overclocking adventures

    If I could put a x1600 in this, I would. But yes, it's much better. I do need to benchmark it now. But I kind of want to wait till I get my other 1GB of RAM, so I can dual Channel PC2-5300 2GB, VS 1.5 with a mix. It took NHC two restarts and me changing the Freq to accept anything else, now...

    Well it can't go to 100% only from 0%-15%. But yeah, so minor performance increase. Well, much greater one, but if you count that it is supposed to work at the 1.73GHZ. It's only a minor increase. Hours of C&C3 however, only had the core at 52C. Shutoff point is 95C.

    Ok with a fresh reset and forced controls I now have it up. At 1989MHZ. Excellent. I'm going to test out these settings. But I will be back to talk more about my overclock adventures. Though I guess just from my BIOS I am now OCing.

    It is running Phoenix Technologies Bios. I changed that freq it made it slower. It's now at 798mhz :(

    Well I changed everything in NHC to runmax voltage, max performance, max everything, annnnd it just sits there. However in my BIOS I have an option that asks about system frequency it's set at 15% but I dunno what it is supposed to mean. I can't find anything in my manual or online.

    Yes, I tried using a manual program, but to no avail. Also the brand is Sager, I am rather certain I have always had this problem, as even when I got it I was always rated as having a low system. Even though I would be at the recommended or higher level.

    Yup, taskmanager shows 100% usage, and my speed changes in CPU-z from 917.7-918mhz. Rather odd. I have changed the power settings constantly, and yes, it is plugged in.

    I do need more power, hard xD I had read online that my chip was very good for OCing, however, it was a model right before mine, and again right after (I swear it taunts me). Buut, the GFX OCing is a bad idea. I'm running a x700 ATI at present, I've got 256mb of DDR dedicated, but OCing much at...

    Laptop overclocking adventures

    No Prime runs fine, but any overclock I attempt with Clockgen just won't engage. Everything is stable through Prime. It is downclocking itself, the multiplier is at 6x, versus the able 13x. It doesn't seem to go any higher so I'm a tad bit confused. The computer will get a test and always...

    Question I am attempting to overclock my Pentium M M740 1.73ghz. Currently I am using Clockgen, or attempting to, but it doesn't seem to have my mainboard in it's list. I was wondering if they had an area to update to a new list. I have had it run clocks on all available mainboard listing but...
