Ok ! Hello EVERYONE ! I am just trying to play around with my laptop, and I came across the MSI After Burner. My available options, those that I can modify, are the Core Clock and Memory Clock.

I am not a computer wiz, I want to learn because I spent too much time with games and not knowing about PCs in general is kinda embarassing. So, if I set these options to max what will happen? What will I IMPROVE? Is it a bad idea? How much will it overheat?

I also got the MSI Kombustor but I have no idea how it works.


Thank you very much for your understanding!Never even attempt to overclock a laptop - The cooling and power distribution SYSTEMS are not up to the job!

Tools like afterburner (and overclocking in general) are designed only to be used for desktop systems where cooling can be upgraded to a level that will allow safe overclocking.
