Bad Performance

[blackphoenix77]

Just 2 days ago I was getting 100fps in counter-strike and an average of 15fps in 3dmark03 with my Fx5200, then i tried overclocking it for more performance(though i realized i wouldn't get much more), and i overclocked the gpu and memory by 50mhz and i went from a 1067 to 1229 in 3dmark03. and now the second day with having it overclocked, i'm getting 15fps in counter-strike and it can barely do 3dmark. Did I toast my card?

Pull it back to stock speeds, it's overheating mate.

Sounds Fried to me bub. 50 mhz is a lot to boost it by. If you ever overclock, I recomend using water cooling.

Should have bought a TI4200 instead of that 5200.
