Unsafe gpu overclock

[Ammon66]

Hey guys, brand new member here and honestly the only reason I made this account was just to ask this one question so here goes.

What tips/dodgy hacks/anything whatsoever do you have for getting the literal most performance out of a gpu?

I have a gtx 980 that I just want to play around with to see what the max performance I could get out of it. Idc if it's unsafe or could damage it. I'm talking like liquid metal on a triple fan liquid cooler, power limited cranked to the max, everything I wanna hear your "good" ideas

A shunt mod is one of the ways you can get more juice, but at a risk of damaging the card.

Yep, voltmods are the way

Also might need to bypass ocp with either a physical mod or an evc2 cause ocp is a massive pain in the ass when heavy or extreme overclocking

I'm sorry what is ocp?

Overcurrent protection aka if you raise the volts too high it will either shut down or ruin your overclock by lowering the voltages

 

My garbage p5q has ocp and when i try going over 1.8v vcore it just shuts off, peice of trash in the same pile as msi p45 boards cause low fsb, gets absolutely trounced on by any gigabyte, biostar, or dfi board so if my ud3p doesnt work after transplanting an nb to it from a dead p5q pro i have laying around these 2 p5qs are on the chopping block
