hello guys!
good day to you!

i'll be brief!
1.)if i overclock my gpu to its limit how long can my card hold on?
2.)is overclocking to its limit okay for the gpu?
i'm using msi afterburner for the purpose of overclocking!

thanks! :D
 
Solution
If you have a good, beefy heatsink, your GPU's life won't be threatened AS MUCH, that's not to say not at all.

Again, if your cooling supports it, you are fine.

Good luck and I hope it goes well for you :)

Splendid
you're not going to gain much by overclocking that card, it is just too weak to begin with.

anyways, if you keep the voltage at sane levels and dont let it overheat, overclocking wont really effect the lifespan of the card... much :p
