I had a question. I bought an HP dv7t quad-core edition laptop. here are some basic specs. 6 GB DDR3 ram, i7-720QM processor(clocked at 1.60 GHz), nVidia Geforce GT 320M graphics card (1 GB dedicated DDR3 ram), and a 320 gb hard drive.
I was looking at some computers online and came across a Lenovo Y500 notebook with similar specs but instead comes with with 4 GB DDR3 ram, and the same i7-720QM processor clocked at 2.80 GHz. i noticed when I bought my laptop that it said it could be clocked up to 2.80 GHz. Should I look into overclocking mine and if so how should I go about it.
i'm just curious because I'd definitely want to overclock it if a similarly configured computer can be stable at 2.80 GHz. Or is there more to it than that?
Thanks
