RE: Overclocking my CPU
In order to overclock you need an enthusiast motherboard. A general rule of thumb is that a computer made by Hp/Dell/Lenovo/Acer/whatever will not have overclocking functionality.

No, unless you find some software and the PID for your motherboard. But doing it this way is very risky, and even if it does work you will only get a few MHz with it. |
