    Overclocking!?

    Ok as some of you may know, I just bought a Galaxy 7900gs pci-e 256mb video card

    I have a compaq presario pc and have no overclocking functionality in my bios.

    I installed an accelero S1 with Turbo module to the video card bring the idle from 55 to 35.

    i have now apparently overclocked from 450/700 to 633/807 using nvidia ntune.

    My idle is now 40 degrees celcius.

    Does this sound right? Or is my computer going to explode.

    I also have a 450w coolermaster psu with a pentium 4 550 and two hard drives on it.

    Install ATI-Tool and you can check for stability.
