well atm I run any game on high settings tweakd alillț bit to work...I am pleased atm, i'm kinda scared to Oc cuz I might fry it and I don't want to risk myself...just got this beauty

You won't fry it but if you don't need more OC yet- don't use it.
I had to use OC for several games otherwise I wouldn't be able to play on high settings but there's no point in using OC just for the sake of it.

Fry? Obviously you don't know what are you talking about so it is better not to do that what you don't understand (oc). Hd 5650 is enough powerful play most games even without overclocking, just in some cases you will not be able get high settings. And wasn't clear why you was asking how to overclok your gpu if you even don't thought to to do that?

nah,I wasn't asking how to overclock my card..just for the cores if are ok or too low..hmm are you positively sure that there isn't any risk??.. are there any guides how to safely overclock your card ? and if I fry it...I have the warrany..but I guess they won't replace it?

so any guides?

Lately I notice that the sound of video is not in sync...could this be connected to the latest catalyst driver 10.7 ?
That's the only thing I updated lately...

Probably not related to Cats but 10.8 is to be released on Wednesday so don't change anything for now.
