can i oc my gtx 750 ti
Hello, I'm using a GTX 750 Ti, an i5 3470 with 8GB RAM on a Dell OptiPlex. The system runs on a 250-watt 80 Plus Gold power supply and has a 50-watt graphics card slot. Recently, I upgraded from the GT710 to a GTX 750 Ti low profile without a pin connector, which works well for medium-range gaming. Temperatures have reached up to 81 degrees, likely due to the slim design and only one built-in fan on the processor (the two on the graphics card). I'm curious if overclocking the graphics card would improve performance or if it could harm the system. Any advice would be appreciated.
I wouldn't increase the speed of that card given the temperatures at stock settings. Your case cooling isn't sufficient and the GPU cooling isn't optimal (since it's a low-profile card).
Your PSU is rated 80+ Gold, but it's still a 250W unit... you'll be operating it closer to its capacity.
I suggest keeping things as they are.

Thank you for the guidance, I think it would be best to keep it as it is.
