my graphics card is a Nvidia geforce gtx 650. okey today i tried to oc my gpu with msi afterburner and i also tried gigabyte oc guru 2 because it came with the pc. i went up little by little, then one time i went up it started to give my transparent blues squares and then i turned it off and back on. when it booted back up and moved the values down a little bit then applied them, i didnt get squares this time so i ran novabench to see how much more i have gotten out of it. it got upto where it test the gpu and about 5-10 secs in it gave me the sqaures again and froze immediately unlike before it gave my a couple of second before it froze. now it wont run properly. the gpu clock wont got pass 540mhz and its default clock is 1110 mhz and the memory clock wont go pass 810 and its original clock is set to 2500. also msi afterburner keep saying that is running at 100% but actually it's only running at half.

here is a link to see what i mean https://fbcdn-sphotos-c-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-frc3/891692_597549726923869_289038657_o.jpg

Your fan speed is at 50 percent not the unit, the fan speed changes based on the heat not the load. You look to be okay. Also change the mode from manual to automatic and I bet you blue square problem will go away too.
Happy Hunting,

no if you look at the msi afterburner hardware monitor the gpu is running at 98% and if u look at OC guru its saying its using only 540 mhz when it actually supposed to be 1110 mhz so it basiclly running at 50%. im not retarded
