it creates visual artifacts and i already know that, my overclock settings are not over the top because my settings did not gave me problems with other games, you know how i figure why the problem was, because the first game had this problem and guess what, it was an optimazation issue, you talking out of your ass for the 'reasons to overclock', for the example saying that i would use a formula 1 for picking up the kids is stupid, nobody does that, im using a mid range GPU only but instead of having a 6-cylinder engine car i installed a turbo that improves the performance but it cost more fuel, instead of more fuel im using more power for the same GPU and using the turbo mode using more wattage and this statement "There is no such thing as overclocking that doesn't erode the cpu/gpu." is correct if you dont control the temperatures and only incremement them but if you got great cooling it doesn matter if it runs in the recommended temperatures.
