hi, i was wondering if you guys can help me to overclock my GPU.
i'm using an Inno3D GT240 512MB DDR5 and i want to boost it performance more but i don't know how to overclock, in a safe way. lol.
well i've tried to overclock my 9500GT before, then changed it's fan but after a few months, the games are already crashing after playing for more than an hour (or sometimes less). sorry but i can't remember how far i went on the clocks.
as i observed, my 9500GT reaches 74C (with its new fan) when playing games and still, it increases overtime while my new GT240 has reached 60C after playing for like 45mins. the fan really helps a lot that's why i want to use it as an advantage in overclocking and i just bought my GT240 2 days ago uhm that's why i want to be more careful when overclocking this one. lol.
i'm using MSI Afterburner for overclocking before, but as of now i just want to use it to monitor the temp of my GPU.
uhm so how should i overclock my GPU properly? because before i was just adjusting the clocks then bake my GPU using furmark with no sense at all. lol.
what would be the signs if my GPU has reached it's limit?
oh about my system specs, here it is:
mobo: ASUS KPL-AM/SE
cpu: Intel Dual Core E6300 2.8ghz
gpu: Inno3D GT240 512MB DDR5
ram: Apacer Tech. 2GB RAM
HD1: Seagate Barracuda 80GB
HD2: Seagate Barracuda 250GB
PSU: 500W
thanks a lot!
