I would like to overclock my omen laptop.  I do not have the option for it in the omen command software. I have an 8TH gen I7 and a 1060.  The download was from the app store.Screenshot (1).png

Hello @RedHairedOMEN 

 

Your particular model Omen wont overclock because the cpu is locked.

Only certain Desktop versions of the Omen brand (and a few of the Omen 17 ap000 series) have that ability.

Besides, the laptop wouldnt be able to handle the heat generated from overclocking.

That is why the option for overclocking is missing in the command center.

 

Hope that helps explain the reason. Let us know if you have other questions.
