when you overclock it you overclock the core speed and the memory speed not the size of storage. is it DDR or DDR2?

it is ddr and i know that you dont change mem sizes just speeds

i also think that i mabye burned out the one of the little ram modules on the card from overheating it was stock: core=270 mem=800 overclock: core=370 mem=1.1ghz pretty good speeds i think for a basic card
