Yes, I raised the limits in the very first place. In fact, I have advanced in setting up my card. I realized that raising the voltage increases the boost frequency of my card, even if the base frequency is untouched. The most stable frequency that my 970 can survive (without artifacts and crashes) is 1480mhz. So I lowered the voltage so that it does not affect the boost frequency, and raised the base frequency so that the boost frequency is 1480mhz. And now it never falls (survived 1 hour of FurMark)! I'm very happy! P.S. I adjusted the fan curve and the temperature stops at 70~73C. Is it safe?

Hello, friends. Can you help me? I'm trying to squeeze a little juice from my MSI gtx970 Gaming 4g. But I have this problem... I can clock my card to 1480 core and 4000 memory. It even passes stress tests =). Right after start card turboes to 1493 core and changes back to 1480 when temp reaches 65С. Also the temperature stops rising at 72C. If I give it some OV (40-60mv) it stop throttling and temp shots up (stopped test at 83C). Is it normal behavior? Is it safe? Right now I disabled OV, but ran into another problem. Card (1480 oc) can pass 1 hour of Furmark, 3DMark and Superposition, but games started to crash with errors after long sessions (something about shutting down the video driver). Some games crash (Overwatch on min settings and PC Building simulator) and some don't (FF XV and AC Origins). Can someone share the experience with me, should I touch voltage, or is it better to just lower the frequency? Right now I use safe 1470 core & 3995 memory preset and it works fine in games... P.S. Sorry, not the best English, I know...
