Are there certain gaming laptops that can be overclocked? The GPu or CPU? Will the stock coolers be able to handle the heat? Is this advisable?

Add a reply

Yes, there are laptops that allow for this (DIY kits and a few boutique laptops). The coolers may be able to handle the heat, and no it's not advisable.

Get a ocz diy kit if you want or just buy a cheap hp i7 720 laptop with decent graphics and use software to overclock

Yup, the OCZ kits are what you would use, but they are getting a bit scarce. Some of the Falcon North West Laptops allow you to overclock from what I remember. I don't know about alien wear, and of course VoodoPC hasn't been the same since being bought by HP.
