Overclocking laptop
I have a Lenovo Ideapad 110-15ISK that am interested in overclocking because I have a few games that I am unable to run very efficiently. Is it possible for this model and if it gets too hot is there a way to cool it down?

1. I wouldn't recommend overclocking on laptops for mainly because they were not built in mind of doing so, which companies disable the ability to overclock to prevent people from damaging their devices.

2. Cleaning the dust out of the system, and a cooling pad, helps reduse heat, but that's about it.

3. What games?

Do not even think about overclocking a laptop.
They already struggle with thermal issues and you want to make matters worse?
That would only cause even more thermal throttling causing even less performance.

Not that overclocking would help, even if it worked as the lack of a dedicated videocard is what is the main issue for gaming.

I was planning on playing Black ops 2, Fortnite, and Dead By Daylight

Turn down settings in game, and turn down the screen resolution, don't have anything running in the background, and that's about it to get some what a playable experience.

There's nothing that can be done because this is a laptop that doesn't have a dedicated GPU, it's using internal GPU from the CPU, and i-gpu are no where close as good as the dedicated GPU. If you wish to game on PC in the future look at building a PC as they cost much less than a gaming laptop, gaming laptop normally go for upto $1700 with good decent modern specs, when compare to building a desktop can be cheaper upto half of that price.

And that wouldn't run Fortnite or Dead by Daylight at playable speed.
Black Ops 2 is possible, but expect very low settings.
