CaptainSauce Posted January 12, 2006 CID Share Posted January 12, 2006 Okay so i got my new Nvidia Geforce card the 6600 256MB and i just set about everything to the max on doom 3 and i got a warning before setting it on ultra high quality that it requires over 500 megabytes of texture memory and isnt recommended to be ran on in that high of quality so i continued anywase and i maintain above a 53 fps frame rate and im OC'ing a bit and such, am i putting my Graphics card in the risk of over heating//working and a chance to damage it at all by continue to play in ultra High Quality and be OC'ing a little? thanks.

richcornucopia Posted January 12, 2006 CID Share Posted January 12, 2006 If you have adequate cooling you should be allright, but overclocking could shorten the lifespan of your components. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainSauce Posted January 12, 2006 Author CID Share Posted January 12, 2006 my cooling is real good, this graphics card came with a option to monitor it and if it gets at a dangerous level of heat it will forwarn me, but it typicall runes ar Core clock 350 and i set it to 360 and the memory clock was 460 and its at 470 now so i didnt soup up to much because in all honestly this card is impressive to me for my budget on default clocks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richcornucopia Posted January 12, 2006 CID Share Posted January 12, 2006 A slight overclock like that isn't anything to worry about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
