well if the card is still running then it isnt fried yet
afaik bfg cards are already overclocked if not to max

I heard that BFG cards overheats more then the others but take that as a gain of salt. I don't know but if it's fried then it won't work at all.

Well if he actually did set it back to stock speeds, make sure all the cooling devices are working properly and clean teh fans out.

And also you ensure you have sufficant cooling inside the systems chassis

Thats why then, it crashed due to over heating.

Watchmen game eschews physical media, opts for downloadable duo

In a refreshing change for movie games, the videogame adaptation of Zack Synder's Watchmen will be delivered as a duo of downloadable games rather than a standard disc release, according to the lastest reports from Variety.

"We don’t want a low-quality console game that will get lost at retail," said WBIE senior VP of production and development Samantha Ryan. "A downloadable game allows us to deliver the experience that fans expect."

The releases will take place over a logical time frame; the first episode is set to debut alongside the film's release in March, while the latter episode will launch parallel to the movie's release on DVD and Blu-ray. More episodes will be considered if the initial two are successful.

Danish developer Deadline Games is handling the downloadable project, which is a litmus test of sorts for the downloadable movie game model as a whole.

The first installment of Watchmen is set to launch on PSN, XBLA and PC on March 9, 2009.
