Should i get an overclocked video card




















In the worst case you might get a tiny boost in frames per second of say FPS. For example, before overclocking if you run your favourite game at 50 FPS, and then you overclock and reach a consistent 60, that can make a noticeable difference. So what do you need, in terms of actual hardware, to safely and effectively overclock your GPU to squeeze out more of those vital frames per second? Only extreme overclocking including pushing voltages of high-end GPUs would need a custom GPU cooling setup such as setting up a custom water-cooling loop.

Otherwise, you should be good. As for your software options, AMD and NVidia actually have overclocking support as part of their drivers. Overclocking using these apps are as simple as adjusting sliders for the GPU clock speed, the memory speed, and the fan speed.

GPUs are already pushed fairly hard in stock form to squeeze out as much performance as possible, and increasing the voltage really does run the risk of frying your card.

Never had issues and it's always worked great. You just set it up once and then it just works in the background to secure your online connection. The main benefit of overclocking is obvious and infamous: increased performance. With a bit of overclocking, you can turn a budget graphics card into a workhorse and a high-end graphics card into a truly incredible piece of machinery.

Essentially, every GPU has a base clock speed that the inner workings move at. However, by boosting this speed, your GPU can handle a higher volume of information over time. Every graphics card is different, and two cards of the same type may be able to handle vastly different clock speeds.

As such, some graphics cards have incredible potential for overclocking. Others, however, are best left at their normal clock speed. Going through the overclocking process carefully is the only way to tell if your graphics card can handle the extra clocking or not. As you well know, overclocking has its share of drawbacks, too. However, if you push your card too much, you could end up losing your graphics card early.

On average how much fps increase would I get over the non oc version playing games at p on ultra? Would the oc version be able to be overclocked even further? Thanks for the replies. That's exactly what I needed to know. You must log in or register to reply here.
