    More FPS is the benefit, games run smoother

    Read thread for procedure

    Can't brick the card OCing with Afterburner or similar, worst that will happen is display driver or PC will crash or game will crash if OC is too high

    My display stopped and went into standby mode suddenly on its own (but my pc was running)
    I had OC my card to 730Mhz before it happened .

    Do you think my display stopped because of the OC ?

    Depends, if you got a "Display driver stopped responding and recovered" message in event viewer at the time that happened, then yes

    Otherwise, check your power settings for display sleep timeout
