Greatings, I am new to the high performance laptop scene, I've had multiple gaming towers previously which I ran with OCed GPUs, however I'm unsure how to proceed for laptops.
I have the new Alienware 18 with the factory OCed i7-4910MQ to 4.5ghz with the dual 970m SLI.
Running 3dmarks I'm scoring around 15600-15750 with gpu temps maxing @ 65deg, intensive gaming gives me the same temps 63-65deg.
I would like to bring my GPU performance closer to the 980ms, while keeping my temps in the mid 70s. I do not want to play around with the bios timings, voltages and such, I'm just looking for a mild 10-15% OC.
I am quite familiar with MSI afterburner, the only thing I am unsure of is how much extra power should I give it before starting to bump up core and memory speeds, or do I leave power at the stock setting?
Thank you for any help.
