gpu nvidia gt 440 1gb turbocache gibabite model
intel pentium g3250
mobo H81M-P33
psu idk the brand tried to google it but could not find maching manufacturer its a 500w psu

the pc was made by a friend of my dad
desktop machine

tried running perfom with /report but i waited 60 or more no results
uploaded the other file tough

also tried ram check went ok did sfc scan now no errors still have to do hdd one

Edit: my machine only crashes when overclocking gpu by any amount idk why while gaming and normal usage is stable

Hi iurirolho. :welcome:

I'm not a hardware expert, nor overclocker, but I found this topic dated 2011: geeks3d.com - (Tested) ASUS GeForce GT 440 Review - CONCLUSION, Page 7 (click):

Let’s say it first, this card is not designed for modern big games.
The GT 440 card is certainly okay for watching movies or play with some 2D applications that support the GPU but forget it serious video games. This card has some nice overclocking caps but in practice it’s no really useful. A overclocked slow card will remain a slow card
In short if you need CUDA or PhysX, if you have a sub-$100 budget and a weak PSU (the GT 440 does not require additional power connector), this is your card.
 
i already know its not good for gaming but i plan to upgrade once i was able to do the oc like on the core clock like to a tiny bit like maybe 100mhz or maybe 50mhz cant remember value but it let me do it but now it does not, am still wondering why it does not let me since before it let me (i did it in after burner) but once i tried to re set the clock again but i had no luck to set it back to the value i i went before, idk how but this card on my rig it manages to run with some tweaks some recent games
 
i might just give up of attempting but i know it before allowed me to do so but now it does not (i had to clean install drivers of it)
 
also my card is a gibabite one let me grab the game debate link thats the one GeForce GT 440 Gigabyte Turbo Cache 1GB Edition Can Run PC Game System Requirements (games i tried running and with tweeks ran ok gta v rainbow six siege, and a few others i wont mention)

edit: on my upgrade i plan a intel i5 4440 and idk what gpu maybe a ASUS GTX750TI-OC-2GD5 or something similar
edit2: if someone can hint me the crash reason or help me figure why(before it did not but now it does if i remember right i think the clock i once set it to was 905mhz and left memory clock to default of this card)

thx for info but that card you linked its not my card mine is the one i linked on one of the posts before card would allow me to oc now it simply does not let me do it without a crash
 
gpu z.jpg thats my gpu for reference(i dont mind not overclocking again but am still confused why it its not letting me since before i managed to do it(cant remember if i got better performance but i wann to try it again to see if it would help playing rainbow six siege (i freeze on char selection) besides that i can play fine)
 
i might try doing that also i think ram settings are default i will check that tommorow what timings should i set if it allows me to do so
 
also idk my bios is up to date i tried updating it but program did not have any luck (i think my bios is not up to date) not sure tough
 
1st i tried setting the bios to the other mode but i could not figure how to make it boot from there also ram speed is set to its default and also i set ram to linked
 
managed to change modes and make it boot but then it bsod on boot so i had to change back also ram timings synced did not help if i remember right mobo has most of the settings to auto any other clues of what could be
 
if i remember right bsod that i got in the other mode was boot related i think it could not find something in the boot hd
