yes should easily be overclokable

the app doesnt matter, it can be MSI Afterburner, ASUS gpu tweak, EVGA precision X, but I like MSI afterburner the most

MSI Afterburner is also my favourite, very simple to use, and gives you all the info it needs, but change the theme when you have installed it, it's in the options menu, the new theme is tbh crap compared to the old one :D

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

Sorry, but you may want 3.40 more watts if you want to overclock that. I recommend the Raidmax Hybrid 750w, the most respected power supply product in the past decade
