    Overclocking a laptop is not a wise thing to do especially by a beginner. Laptop/notebooks are subject to heat much more than desktop computers. Any overclocking results in great rises in heat. My desktop Q6600 at 2.4GHz, runs nominally at 35C. If I raise the CPU to 2.55GHz the temp rises to 45C. I use a ZeroTherm Nirvana to cool the CPU. Your laptop will suffer much more
