What does overclocking do?

[Leuce]

Does it produce more fps?
Or better graphics? I have a gtx 750 1gb and I want to make it a 2gb to make it more future proof. Is there a way to do this through overclocking?

Overclocking does not increase the Vram amount. Overclocking increases the speed of the memory and the speed of the graphics processor. With a budget gpu that you have i would strongly recommend not overclocking it

already answer in your other post, you can't make a 1GB gpu to a 2GB gpu with overclock, you need to replace it.

It basically makes your GPU run at a higher clock speed than specified on the box or packaging.

it will make your games run faster, but at the expense of higher temperature.

and no you cannot make your 1gb card 2 gb with overclocking.

there is no way to get more vram, you are stuck at 1gb unless you buy a new card. and i also already answered your other thread and your private message.

"Overclocking" just refers to adjusting the Mhz of a processor.

 

[Danbuscus25]

not just the mhz of the possessor, you can overclock that, the ram, the gpu, the vram, and some other things, with the amount of vram not one of them.

I meant any processor - CPU, GPU, whatever. You can overclock a calculator if you want. And RAM is part of all that. Overclocking boils down to adjusting speed. That's really all it is. Granted, there is a lot to it. But the "what is it" question has a very short answer.
