hi guys,...i need your opinions...i recently bought a video card, http://www.inno3d.com/products/graphic_card/gf7_pcie/7600gst.htm
i managed to over clock it to 535/1450 with stock cooling(it just wouldn't get higher than that) using coolbits,...benchmarked it using Aquamark 3 and Performance Test i only got about 5% increase in performance, is it worth it? or am i risking damage to my card in exchange for a minimum performance gain over my stock frequency? :confused:
 
Taking the risk is up to you, considering you have to purchase a new one if this one bites the dust. I normally only overclock graphics cards that I have added additional cooling measures on, like an after market HSF. But a lot of the time when you do that you are not really making out to well because of the additional cost. It is entirely up to you if you think you need the 5%. IMO 5% more on a 7600gs is not worth it and probably not much of a difference.
