Hi Sam, as long as the card isn't being overclocked, this option can be enabled. It does improve performance, but probably not enough that you would even notice. As for the games crashing, that's a definate no. Depending on what is causing your games to crash in the first place, overheating for example, enabling this feature will actually make things worse!
