How to overclock my gpu amd ati radeon 6450 hd 2gb

[jason27]

Hello,

Upgrade that terrible slow gpu ?

That is not a gaming GPU. Overclocking it will provide no benefit to you in gaming but only in heat production.

Picture a 1 horse power engine, if you make it a 1.13 horse power engine what kind of benefits do you think you would see ?

can u please tell us the resolution of your monitor

 

[supersonic977]

anyway with ur card u can't play at a resolution more than 1024 * 768 with the lowest possible details with a game like BF3 you will get about 20 - 25 fps at this resolution with the overclock I suppose it can get you 27 fps max so as they said don't bother yourself with OC
But if u wanna OC this card its simple from The catalyst control panel choose amd over ride and move the slider to a bit higher clock then test the card if no problem u may increase the clock again until u find a stable clock "On ur own risk" U should read the toms's articles about the overclock

AMD OverDrive in catalyst control center or
MSI AfterBurner

Overclocking that GPU won't make time travel anymore possible than it is now, so crysis 3 is out of the question you'll need a Delorean and a flux capacitor for that.

As for BF3 youll just need a new GPU.

In all seriousness though, there is no point in overclocking that card even for the games it will play like portal 2 or tf2.

MSI afterburner does all the overclocking. For BF 3, you will need a whole lot more torque. Think along the lines of HD 7870 or better.

You aren't going to be able to do anything with that card to be honest.

As mentioned by all you can not polish a turd

Well you could.....but you would end up ruining it. Then again, you can't ruin a turd.

It seems you can actually ; ( educational stuff ) http://www.howtocleanstuff.net/how-to-polish-a-turd/ or http://dsc.discovery.com/tv-shows/mythbusters/videos/polishing-a-turd-minimyth.htm , BUT it's still a turd though . . .

 

[spentshells]

I want to do this now.....

 

[Deemo13]

the MythBusters is the best video I have ever seen.

Please don't hesitate to show us some pictures from your effort. Specially if the base ingredient is a truck load of nachos.

 

[GreenDutchAlien]
