Alright, so this is the deal -
I have a not-that-bad-but-really-still-horrible computer from Dell with a GPU that can barely run most of the games you see today. I'm thinking "Hey, why not push it up just a bit, just until I get a new computer?"...
I've seen one or two other people who have failed trying to overclock a graphics card (or any hardware) from a PC manufacturer.
But the thing is, my card isn't from Dell (well I don't think it is). It started screwing up mid 2011, and so I sent for a repair. The new card comes (came) from Pegatron, which, from a quick scan of the Wikipedia article, is not related to Dell.
So I'm wondering -
Can this card be overclocked?
This I'm not too sure of, because my Motherboard and BIOS are from Dell - would this have any affect/impact on the overclocking?
