Alright folks, this is my video card at stock settings:

Temps at stock stay between 37c to 52c, gaming goes up to 55c to 60c.


OC settings which seems to be the limit, because if i push the memory above 450 too much, my computer freezes up.


I am not sure how far the memory can go, i think i tried to put it on 500 and then it froze, but i think i can put the memory to a point where the bandwidth will hit 7.8GB and thats it.

Question: I have the core at 705/memory at 450, my computer has not froze , temps seems to be kinda cool, never seems to go above 60, so my question how much stress is this adding to the PSU and judging from the OC status, is this a safe bet, or should i decrease the core to 600 and leave the memory at 450 to be on safe side?

Interesting. I didn't know that your video card had a fan on it.

Well having the best clocks is cool, but having good clocks is better. So I say downclock it.

Well if it runs fine, then why would you even think about downclocking it. If it starts crashing etc... then turn things down a bit.

Just played Crysis Warhead, no issues, played another game, runs fine. 1280X1024(RESIZE TO 1024X640) AAX2, low to mainstream to gamer settings. Runs between 25-38fps. Dips a bit in the first scene as you see, around 19fps.
