I have an AMD A8 processor with a 2.2ghz CPU, Radeon R5 graphics, and 4GB RAM. After updating to Crimson, I can't find the overdrive option in the Radeon settings. I'm trying to overclock the CPU and use the GPU to improve performance... anyone can assist me?

It's an HP notebook paired with an AMD A8 6th gen quad-core... Either the motherboard doesn't allow overclocking, or it's turned off in the BIOS. I wouldn't suggest doing it unless necessary, since notebooks usually have basic cooling already. Running the CPU too hot would be a problem.

What is the specific CPU and motherboard? Also, is this a laptop?
