Hardware I want to overclock. How to?
your using an AMD e1-1500 which is a really low end APU from 2014
a 1.48ghz cpu with inbuilt gpu aint gonna cut it even with optimizations
also because its a laptop apu you wont be able to overclock it anyway
basically laptops with that cpu were £200 at time of release aka really budget system

You're just going to have to invest in a better computer if you want to play demanding emulators no way around it.
You can but it is more difficult as they aren't cooled anywhere near as well as a desktop PC. Also yours is an APU not a separate GPU and CPU which could add complications or even make it impossible, I don't know enough about the one in your system to say for sure.
Regardless on the system you have as others have mentioned it's not worth it anyway, you'll never add enough to make any real difference.

Go to the bios and increase the cpu multiplier, if you can. That's the most basic way to overclock. If your laptop's motherboard bios doesn't have that feature, forget other forms of oc. Invest in a better computer.
Doesn't have to be new, you can make a very good computer with used server parts for around 200usd, they're at throwaway prices.

@AncientBoi, Yeah, believe you can do PSP games as well. But a Pi5 is much powerful in comparison.+2 -

Not sure about other models of Pi4 but the Pi 4 B with 8GBs OCed to 2Ghz handles PSP really great except like 1 game I found and it is playable it just looks bad lol Motor Storm Arctic something or other. -

I will admit that one does seem more interesting than the usual Ambernic ones, and I already liked those.

I mean yeah sure but the specs are the same as a $50 model, it's just those pesky "quality of life" things driving up the price, like an actually working speaker, or buttons that don't melt, and stuff like that.+1 -

I think all in my Pi 4 was well north of 200 bucks 150ish for the Pi 4 the case the fancy cooler, then like 70 for the 500GB MicroSD then like 70 for the Xbox controller. But honestly it's a nice set up I really enjoy and to me was worth every penny. (even bought more controllers for 2 or 4 player games.) hmmm have never played any 2 player games yet

Yeah that's what I hate about the RPi, it's supposedly $30 or something but it takes an additional $200 of accessories to actually turn it into a working something.

Yeah a lot of it I consider a hobby, using Batocera I am constantly adjusting the collection adding and removing stuff, scraping the artwork. Haven't even started on some music for the theme... Also way down the road I am considering attempting to do a WiiFlow knock off lol

Hmm, with that in mind, maybe a complete out-the-box solution with all the games collected, pacthed and optimized for me would be worth $150
