I accidentally applied +1000 MHz Overclock over remote desktop and of course it crashed. I don't have access to the computer right now so I can't turn it off. Could anything me damaged if it is left like that for a about 5 hours? The GPU fan is set to 100%

It crashed so it could have done 2 things.

1) the gpu driver crashed, which means the OC settings probably got resetted to default.

2) complete pc crashed which means it's could be shut down or showing the BSOD screen or rebooted on stock settings.

 

Either way it will be fine, at least it should, no reason to worry.

If you want my attention, quote meh! D: or just stick an @samcool55 in your post :3

Should be fine. Unless you set it to apply OC on start up it will reset when it starts back up.

Thanks. I thought it would be ok but I just wanted to make sure.
