Anyone know of a way I could overclock or in any way squeeze a little more juice out of this sucker? Thank you in advance...

I don't think its a good idea to OC a laptop, but i am sure if you look online there is a way to do it.

can you? yes. how easily? i don't know. might be as simply as using clockgen, or even overclocking from the bios.. might be as hard as soldering in a new clock crystal that's a smidge faster

Thank you folks...

I wouldnt.....OCing makes a decent ammt of extra heat, and here is all that heat going??? You'd need to modify the heatsinks etc to effectively rid the heat.

I wouldnt recommend OCing a laptop because if you start making it faster it will eat the battery faster.

If anything try just tweaking your windows install to make it feel faster.

You could overclock your graphics cards using coolbits driver unlocking tool.

Other than that just use bootvis, tweakUI, regscrub and that sort of thing to make things fun faster.
