Overclocking Mac OSX Lion |Overclocking Macbook speed up performance

Does Overclocking Mac Lion improve Mac performance. How can I overclock Macbook pro to speed up my Mac performance ?

Some very genuine and common questions being asked by users of sluggish Mac. Before we find answer to these questions lets first learn about overclocking technology.

What is overcloking?

Overclocking is a technique of making a component of your system operate faster than specified by its manufacturer.

Not only this, but making changes in s CPU multiplier and memory timings, are also considered as overclocking.

We can also increase the operating voltages to increase Mac speed at which operation remains stable. Its important to note here that although overclocking increase Mac speed but it raises the power consumption and heat generation too.
So, the back points of this technology includes excessive power consumption, overheating and fan noise. It creates risk and may cause system failure. It can be cured but the complex cooling effort may be very costly to afford.

Alternates of overclocking to speed up Mac performance

To increase Mac performance one can optimize his Mac drive. It includes removing unwanted stuffs from your drive. It may be duplicate files, language files, binary files and uninstalling heavy and unnecessary applications.
