Say, for instance, I overclocked a video card's gpu and ram. Everything is stable. There are no artifacts. Should I be worried that something is overheating, or will there be artifacts/lockups before the gpu or ram overheats to any dangerous level?
I just want to know if there will always be a sign of instability before anything would overheat to a dangerous level.
I also read mention of someone touching the video card while the computer is on to check for heat. I don't know much about electronics, but is this safe? Could I receive a shock or damage the video card by touching it when the computer's on?
Thanks for the help.
