How can i overclock an intel i5-5300U

[shrewd epoch]

U cpus are locked. Only way would be through bclk overclocking and id assume your board doesnt support that. Or through heavy board modifications that could mess up alot more than its worth to get a slight bit more performance. And also generate more heat than a netbook could handle.

netbook?

my pc is a dell latitude e7450

hey atleast it handles ultrakill in low settings

[smoky quail]

I dont recommend overclocking ANY laptop cpu tho

like milking %1 extra but taking responsibility so muhc riskss

[shrewd epoch]

Thats not good advice though considering theres laptops designed for it.

[smoky quail]

I still wont prefer

[shrewd epoch]

Its a buisness netbook made for efficiency.

[shrewd epoch]

Ok.

[slate thistle]

its an office laptop that was made to stay 24/7 plugged in

a lil overclocking couldn't hurt it

[smoky quail]

if it does have a dedicated graphics card like nvidia, you can use nvidia inspector to oc

but occing U series CPU from intel wont create much difference at performance, maybe even not a change

[slate thistle]

it does not

its current speed is 2.69ghz which isn't that bad for an 11 y/o cpu

that's its absolute max speed i could get out of it without overclocking

[smoky quail]

it basically not related with ghz, its related with more like architecture

[slate thistle]

doesn't hurt to try

[slate thistle]

yeah i know, mine is broadwell

[shrewd epoch]

Its a dual core low wattage cpu. Could theoretically do 3.7ghz fine since its broadwell but its a u cpu, locked, and a dell bios. Board isnt gonna allow it.

[shrewd epoch]

Broadwell can handle 5ghz.

Idk what youre referring to

[slate thistle]

no way to bypass it

[shrewd epoch]

Theres no way to overclock it is all im saying.

Yeah

[smoky quail]

im talking about ghz isnt the main thing that says cpu is good or bad

its the architecture

you are on more like other way

[slate thistle]

didn't u say i could use "bclk overclocking"

[smoky quail]

bios prolly wont allow that

[shrewd epoch]

Bclk overclocking is taking the 100mhz base clock speed and increasing it. But you wont be able to do that

[slate thistle]

then why'd u tell me i could in the first place

can't you change ur bios or sum

[shrewd epoch]

Not worried about architecture ipc performance here. Talking solely about increasing performance of what he has allready.

[shrewd epoch]

I mentioned it because that would be the only way to overclock a locked cpu. But your board doesnt support it and the dell bios is all locked down

[smoky quail]

yea you are talking about "increasing performance" of what he has while hes actually cant

insane

[slate thistle]

i might be able to buy a pc some time soon, maybe summer, maybe next year or maybe in 3 years

most likely is like next year

and it wouldn't be too good

jst some genric dell optiplex

it would be better than my current pc though

[smoky quail]

good luck

[shrewd epoch]

? I mentioned bclk overclocking before he said what his pc even was. You can overclock such cpus if the board supports it.

[smoky quail]

ok.

[slate thistle]

is there any way to make the system use only opengl

or h264

silence, i love it

@shrewd epoch here?

[shrewd epoch]

Opengl is a rendering api like direct x

So no

[slate thistle]

h264?

[shrewd epoch]

Thats just a video codec

Many programs use different ones

You can try tho

[slate thistle]

i do use enhanced.h264 extension so i was wondering if theres an app that does the same thing across all video in windows

i might have to use linux bro

[vagrant tartan]

The official mobile version of the CPU cannot be overclocked, but the ES version can.Because I've tried it🙂

[slate thistle]

What the hell does that have to do with me
