    I just got an HP dv6700t with a T9300. Has anyone tried overclocking an HP before?

    Any useful advice (other than: OCing a laptop is stupid, don't do it)?

    You need to know the exact PLL no. from the CPU clock generator chip....and get the overclocking software that supports that particular PLL..!!

    Yeah, I wasn't really looking forward to taking my new laptop apart, which is why I was hoping someone else had already overclocked theirs and could tell me the PLL.
