Hey guys,
I currently have a HiS 6870, and wondered how much using the Overdrive option will take off the lifespan of the card. My GPU can hack a setting of 970, 1170 without any strange effects, but everytime I play let's say Metro I switch overdrive on, and then take it off when I have finished using it. Is it wise to keep doing this, or leave Overdrive on? The last thing I want to do is shorten my GPU life, I need this card to last at least 2 years, so very hesitant to use Overdrive.
Cheers,
Steve.
