Title: I just overclocked.
Post by: Captain Communism on July 10, 2011, 06:07:00 PM: And honestly, for a laptop (m11x), it was so easy, it's sad.

But to the point. Are there any applications out there (Free) that moniter cpu heat?

Yeahno

My laptop.

Caught on fire.

Theres photos to prove it.

Just search for topics from December.

You'll seriously fuck up your power adapters input.

But fine, just have a lot of electrical tape ready.

And make sure you start saving up to buy a new laptop in a couple weeks.

Birthday's in a couple of weeks anyways.

It's staying cool because I'm keeping a good airflow.

Constantly staying at around 45-55 degrees C.

Ironically enough, it's cooler now than it was when it wasn't overclocked.
