richba5tard Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 Priced at ± 250 - 300 euro they might be a cheap and fun thing to overclock. I see there are both ARM (eg Exynos 5250: 2x1.7Ghz ARM SoC) as Intel (Celeron 2955U: 2x.1.4Ghz Haswell) based models. Anyone tried overclocking them, if at all possible?

richba5tard Posted December 30, 2013 Author Share Posted December 30, 2013 Ordered a samsung 11" chromebook with the dual core ARM processor and quad core MALI gpu to toy around with. 207 euro, this must be the cheapest laptop I've bought up till now.

richba5tard Posted January 6, 2014 Author Share Posted January 6, 2014 It works, hooray! I need to run headless (console) when benching in chrome os, but when I dualboot in ubuntu it even works with the user interface. The choice of java runtimes on chrome os is really limited though.
