I have a old laptop and I want to get the most of it (basically test) I have a 90w powersupply (brick) and I have overclocked a GT540m 2gb from 670 mhz and 900 mem to 770 and 1050 mem and I want to ask.Its possible to overclock it even more.I want to have a decent gaming e-sport and some demanding game experience to test it out.I have applied and created my own airflow loop.The CPU reaches 77C in max load (i7-2630qm with turbo enabled) and the GPU in stock clock at 65 and overclocked at 68 with 100mhz boost from MSI afterburn.I want to know if its possible to push it even further without failing.I want to know from someone who has more experience than me on GPU overclocking with similar card.

general specs:
i7-2630qm
samsung 8gb ram 1600mhz ddr3-sodimm cl9
GT540m 2GB
powerbrick 90W

Cooling specs:
Deepcool U-Pal (for some reason it was more succesful than Deepcool MultiCore X6 by 5degrees)
Tried MX4 and artic silver 5 and both had same temperatures except overclock temps (mx4 was down 5 degrees)
and a air vacum fan (to be more spesific http:// <--- this and helped me by 14 degrees.

looking forward to your answers.Thanks

I pushed it over 870 mhz and full mem and still it dosent fail and its stable in framerate and also temps. My question is with 90W power brick how much can I still overclock it?
 


That's hard to tell, i'm not sure. Memory overclocking brings the TDP up the most, so only run a conservative overclock on the vram, but you can push the core as high as possible since you aren't overvolting.
