Hello, I want to know if what im doing will anyway damage my graphics card. My graphics card is XFX R9 270X. Im using a 550w power supply and Prolink Pro700V - 650VA because of some unstable electric going on at home. And for some reason when I play Crysis 3 everything on ultra mode, my Prolink will be beeping showing that my PC is drawing way more power. And for that ive lower some settings of my graphics card such as Power Limit % to (-5), Core Clock MHz to (900) and Memory Clock MHz to (1100) fan speed settings auto. Im using MSI Afterburner software for this.

And i want to know if i'm doing this, will this damage my grapchis card or any other component in my PC?
 
Solution
Why don't you just lower the settings on Crysis? That game if renowned for putting even the highest tier cards to it's knees. Very demanding. Your probably maxing the card out

Ahh... i thought it has something to do with settings of the graphic card. Is the game really that demanding for ultra graphics?

Yeah its one of the most demanding games, your GPU will most likely be drawing its max.
