B75m x 7870

[balvesbr]

Hello,
I don't know much about OC but what I know is that it increases the voltage on the subject, makign clock goes faster, am i wrong?
Well, since i have a b75m i am wondering if it will crash using a "industry" OC high amps demanding card , like ASUS HD 7870, for example: a normal HD 7870 consume max 150w and this asus consume more than 220w.
Maybe im talking non sense but it really wonders me, because if b75m is a small business, it sounds bad to put a big VGA on it, which is a huge business to me, at least haha
thanks for your help

The overclocking of a GPU isn't dependent of the MOBO, only CPUs. You will be fine overclocking the hell out of that thing!

Sooo...for overclocking the cpu you increase its voltage, which b75m fails
But how come GPUs OC's are different? I mean, if it is a "industry' overclocked VGA, there would be no voltage increase, just watts (?).

Actually I don't pretend to overclock the GPU, i'm picking it up because here where i live, this vga is about $100 less (we S2 taxes) compared to 7950 and, at 'stock', it almost matches the performance, i do belive too that this card also have a better build compared to others models, it is noiser but, damn, 40~45db will be the lowest noise level in my room once I play musics and games... Anyway I appreciate your answer
