Fehnsify Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 Hey guys,I know its maybe a general i5 question, but as i have the Y500 Ideapad i wanted to ask here. As you can might think, I want to know how or better if I can overclock my i5 3230m CPU. I didn't find one thread here or in other forums about such so I hope you can help me.Fehnsify Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
octiceps Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 Not possible, sorry. This CPU is completely locked down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khenglish Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 4-7% is doable if you can figure out how to dump and flash your MW FW. Let me know if you are interested and I can tell you what to look into to try this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let me know if you are interested and I can tell you what to look into to try this. Sure I'm interested, but flashing my MW FW or flashing something I'm not familiar with is not really I want to do (especially because I don't know what MW FW is) But thank you anyway for your offer!
