Killing my graphic card

I recently tried to over clock my graphics card ATI Radeo x850 DDR3 PCI express 256mb
little did I know that when I turned it up a bit the temp reached 98'c so I quickly reseted it back to default, decided to play COD4 and next minute the screen went funny and the computer was not responding and I could hear the power suppl trying it's best to power the card up.

So 98'c isn't good for graphics cards lol
