I did not listen to the video but at the end there is some text. some of that is not true as I can get artifacts with too high of a gpu clock and wont always crash like that is claiming. also I have had a crash from too high of memory before getting artifacts so what is said about that is wrong too. and of course performance can start to degrade a bit before ever artifacting or crashing when you oc gddr5 memory too high.

This applies to Radeon cards. This is why you should "listen" to the video.

lol, I figured I should have listened but was too lazy to get the headphones. maybe you should change the title to reflect that is is for AMD cards.

Fixed.

I think AMD really needs some type of shadowy marketing programs to infiltrate online forums.

Crashing is a good thing. Means you know when your settings are wrong and you have either maxed it out or need to up the voltage

Crashing is not a good thing at stock speeds. Lol.

Damn, I was hoping a 7850 could run safely at > 50% OC
