Overclocking GPU
When overclocking GPU do you get "artifacts and tears" Before you fri the card or can you fri the card before getting them. Also Can I have Screenshots of what these things look like?

Hi Fastfly,
When you start getting artifacts and distorted colors, you should stop overclock and go back to the last good speed. You havn't damaged the card at that point since most have good cooling, but if you go any higher you could overheat the CPU causing it to freeze the system and at worst burn the chip. |

Yep. Artifacts doesn't mean your card is ruined, it just means you've overclocked too high. Go back to the last good speed settings and you're set.

I would overclock the mem and core at the same time until you find a good setting.
