Running AMD 6 Cores at 3.2 16 Gig of DDR 3 at 1600 speed and one EVGA 210 GPU.
Running the AMD App for Lunatics the ss3 one and RAC has gone crazy up and up about 10400 now. The GPU card says running one + .004. Is there anyway I can make it go faster? The EVGA card has only 512 of DDR3 on it and does not have a fan on it! Just asking for help and thanking those of you in advance for that help. Jon

You might be able to download MSI Afterburner or EVGA Precision and overclock the card, but I would be extremely careful without any active cooling. Either of those apps will allow you watch the temperature, so you might be able to squeeze something out of it. You could also point a couple case fans in it's direction to help out.

I infer from what you've said here that you are running the nVidia 210 card. This is a fairly low end card. Don't expect miracles from it. If you are wanting to upgrade pick a card with GDDR5 memory. GDDR5 tends to be faster than the older DDR3 memory.
