What does it do?

Well, what does overclock do.
It may be a stupid question, can you overclock graphics card so I can play a game?

 

[Hefemeister]

makes a cpu, ram or video card run faster than stock specifications. Yes you can overclock a videocard. Riva tuner is a good program for this but do some research before you start.

Well, I want to run fallout 3. But this is what I get.

What do I have to do?

 

[Hefemeister]

what video card do you have?

 

[DaRKESTHoURx]

ATi X1050.

 

[Hefemeister]

You could always try but I doubt you could get acceptable fps with that card. If you really wanted to play I would invest in a new video card.

 

[DaRKESTHoURx]

Would it be worth it to try and overclock it?

 

[Hefemeister]

It is always worth a try but even if you can get it to run you will be on the low end and will probably still want a new card. What motherboard do you have?

 

[DaRKESTHoURx]

I dont know, how can I find out?

Run CPU-Z and let us know the brand/model on the 'Mainboard' tab.
