Windows 10: I have a new, better laptop. What's the best way to set it up please.

I bought a Lenovo Y520-151KBN some months ago - at that time I'd been having lots of problems with OneDrive and WU and also some major home improvements, so I decided not to set it up.


OneDrive & WU have been resolved so at last I now have the time to set it up. I'm fairly certain that my licences will allow me to set up the software on the new laptop & I think that I all I need to do is to add the new laptop to my Microsoft Account - but I'm not sure.


So are there any other processes that I need to consider and what's the best way for me to set up my new laptop please?


PS I really haven't a clue in which forum I should post this so would a Moderator kindly move it as appropriate please. TIA

That's what the auto setting will do since you're over the 1333 mark it jumps to the next step which isn't listed or officially supported I assume by that ram.

At this point though I would suggest dropping the multi one step or .5 so that we can get something stable and possibly take the heat issue out of the picture for now.

 

Best laptop under $800??

Well the last one I suggested seems to be the best for 650$

Here's a quick laundry list:

List of software to use for overclocking and testing
Examples:
Wattman (and how to find and use it, like an overview, including profiles)
Unigine Valley or Heaven (use this for quick testing while changing settings in Wattman and checking for stability / artifacts) ...just suggesting this
How to monitor cores / mem speeds and temps during testing (I've seen screen overlays, and others using GPUz)
