ZX-S & C64 are still my favourites ;-)

Nice O/C'ing guide and I am sure it will help some of the user's who have been asking about pushing these systems.
Remember, when all else fails a cup of tea and a good swear will often help! It won't solve the problem but it will make you feel better.

It's AMD so what do you expect!  ::)

This does not cover A75 mobil platforms (which seam to beable to take a solid 500-600mhz OC with a voltage drop and no heat increase)

I could give you the details on that if you want to add that to your guide.

Well it's just early stuff I'm messing around with, I have not altered the cooling, improved, forced or anything over how the laptop is setup (that comes later) But it would seam the A75 Mobil Platform, in my case the Lenovo A75 Torpedo with an A6-3400M 1.4ghz is able to run at 1.9ghz with ease with a voltage decrease, and a small increase in temp between when the load comes on and the fan spools up, still working on finding out how to setup my own fan profiles. For the mostpart I've been running it at default speeds with a voltage drop for extra bat life for now. However the call of the overclocker is an evil one at that, so let me share with you some preliminary overclocking I've done on the A75 mobil.

I'm expecting to be accused of witchcraft.

Linx run @ 1gb (for the sake of having limited time to play for now)


Now the exact same session, no restarts, no alterations other then on the fly P-state changes and multi scaling raiseing the multi from X14 to X19 on the fly whille droping the voltage from 1.075v to 1.0v


Some results with Wprime 32M

Stock


1900mhz


I'll share more with how to do this later when I've had some time to sleep, however the program I am using for this is called K10Stat.
