Hi. Thread title should read 6950 into 6970...
Just got a XFX Radeon 6950 2GB graphics card which is great and a big upgrade from my 4890 card however i have heard people saying you can turn it into a 6970. I have a few questions..
1. Does doing this give a notable performance increase or is it just a few fps difference ?
2. Is it risky and does it make the card more unreliable and prone to failure
3. I am computer retarded and have never overclocked anything in my life before and the prospect of doing so scares the **** out of me, checked out a few guides and was thoroughly confused. Is it easy for a computer retard like myself to do and if so is there a proper basic guide for simpletons explaining step by step what to do ?
Any help or advice would be appreciated !
