Solution Memnarchon Aug 19, 2014 Hello. The locked CPU has nothing to do with the GPU. The risk part here (I was personally looking for this already heavily factory overclocked GTX750ti) is that this GPU is already near its limit and it doesn't have any 6pin power connector. Now what does this mean? It will draw power from the motherboard's PCI-E till 75watt (which already draws) and it might hurt the motherboard. This GPU already offers 15% more performance than the original GTX750ti, why do you want more?
