P-series Stock Power Supply Unit: Are overclockers using it?

The stock PSU is only 120W (at least for the P-78xx laptops) and I am wondering if the people with T-series processors and heavily overclocked graphics cards are using it. If not, what PSUs did they buy? Do the P-68xx people also have the 120W PSU, despite their stock T-series processors?

 

My p-6860fx came with a 120w psu.

 

As far as I know, no one has been able to successfully overclock ANY processor on P7805u's.
Someone correct me if I'm wrong please..

 

Overclocking CPUs ain't what this thread is about.

BTW with hardware modification it can be done.

 

Is the title of this thread not "P-series Stock Power Supply Unit: Are overclockers using it?"

AFAIK, no one has successfully over clocked a P78xx system.

I'd love to see this hardware mod you speak of. I've been dying to see that for months..

 

If you would have read my first post you would have seen that this isn't about overclocking CPUs, and the question is about the stock PSU:
"The stock PSU is only 120W (at least for the P-78xx laptops) and I am wondering if the people with T-series processors and heavily overclocked graphics cards are using it. If not, what PSUs did they buy? Do the P-68xx people also have the 120W PSU, despite their stock T-series processors?"
I woulda included "T-series processors" in the title but I figured it was long enough.

As for the hardware mod, it was a thread probably in this forum. Search for "soldering". I didn't read into it much because it wasn't anything I was going to do, but it sounded pretty legit.

Is the hissing noise with these PSUs normal?

 

yes the hissing thing is normal for the stock PSU. the PSU is not the best in the world.

i have a 6831FX, my laptop came with the 120w stock PSU. the cpu is the 1.66mhz one the t-5540 i think, but i upgrade the cpu to the t-8300 at 2.4 within 1 week of having it. i think with the t8300 the power draw is even less the the 1.66 one. the heat is alot lower so i would think the power is too. at 100% throttle the power draw might be around the same as the stock cpu.

i do overclock the gpu from 500 core to 600, and the memory from 800 to 900, the PSU seems fine but it does get very hot when i do fold@home with the gpu and Boinc with the cpu.

hope this explains some of your questions.
