AMD Radeon HD 6990 Overclocking switch

[Purujeet]

I am a fresher to overclocking generally; as a result i had some questions regarding the 6990's Oc switch. I previously recognize what to do pretty much, except my problem is, do i have to accomplish whatever thing dissimilar if i have 2 of them inside my setup? Pretty much shut down computer and switch the two switches up and place the computer back on and done?

With this overclocking, the card is significantly more power, causing the power supply and motherboards are taxed more heavily. Therefore recommends that AMD has to make a good quality food and decent motherboards to use both are capable of longer time to deliver this high power.
