Overclocking Laptop

[Spoiled_Kitten]

Hi there, 

I have a Inspiron 13-5378 and i recently saw how small the heat sink was, due to the fact i barely move it, i added a bigger heat sink which keeps it super cool (under 40 degrees at boost) and i was wondering if/how i could overclock the CPU as it aint that fast and i have the cooling capacity to do so,

Thanks Scarlett

Intel Core i3-7100U can not be overclocked... Amazing to see such low temperatures in a laptop, at least it should work for a long time.

Only HK mobile Chips can be overclocked

There's probably some sort of software trickery that can OC that thing, you just ain't gonna be doing it from the BIOS though.

Unless your laptop has an mxm gpu module no

mxm is a discontinued standard that was intended to give easy upgradability to laptops
