Hi! I have a GTX 650 Ti (2 Gb) and I have several crashes with games like 'Alien: Isolation' and sporadically with MMO games like Star Trek Online and Guild Wars 2. I tried EVERYTHING and finally yesterday found a solution: raising voltage from the default 1050 mv to 1075 mv. I installed Precision X 16 but as said before, I can't modify almost anything with it. I also read on this forum that the GTX 650 Ti (2 Gb) doesn't support voltage control, BUT... I tried MSI Afterburner and then I was able to raise voltage to the desired 1075 mv. Crashes are gone now.

Then my question is: Is this voltage raise safe? I see no great temperature rise.

Thanks in advance.

Stress test your system.  If you don't run into issues, you're good.  There is more heat as a result but if it's managed then it won't be an issue.

Gabri3l, I have the same issue and the same card. Can you tell me what your MSI afterburner settings are exactly?

I just added +25 to the Core Voltage (mV). Default voltage for our card is 1050 mv. I left the rest untouched. Hope it works for you. Also consider that my card isn't the 'boost' one. Or at least that word doesn't appear on the box.
