Sorry, i don;t know enough about AMD systems to give you a proper rating. but i'd guess around 9.5/10, it looks like you have some very nice components.

to overclock a laptop you need to do it by software, there is a thread in the overclocking section of the forums outlining the basics.

In my opinion it isn;t really worth overclocking a lappy unless you use it as a main machine. Laptop cooling ain't that great and it significantly reduces battery life.

I overclock the graphics card in mine for playing games on the go. but i haven't touched the CPU. I may do in the future, just to see if i can do it.

Some AMD systems can be setup with profiles so when it is plugged into the mains, it runs overclocked, but on batteries it runs underclocked and undervolted (for extended battery life) This seems really interesting, but i don;t think it's possible with my i3 or any intel based systems. I need to do more research into the subject.

Not to many cards that are low power single slot and faster than the 9800gt eco@gt clocks

Heh XD

It doesn't perform to badly with a single 140mm fan and the unncesscery crossbars removed : ]

Don't go over 45c underload (i've adjusted coretemp to read the cores 12c above normal as when overclocking these 6cores temp reading bugger up)
