I would not overclock a laptop processor personally.

I would definitely not overclock a laptop ever because laptop fans are designed to only handle the processor running at stock frequency. I'm not particularly sure why you would even want to over clock an i7. Also you would need to flash an unlocked bios because the laptop manufactured has put a cap on the CPU frequency so it doesn't run so high.

I'm going to close this topic. As overclocking a laptop processor is madness!!
