Hi there guys!

 

I have just found a good stable overclock and was wondering whether it is good? and can I squeeze more out of it.

 

Core @ 1160mhz

Voltage @ 1.170v

Memory @1600mhz

 

I get max temps around 75-76 after I opened the top lid off my case and opened the front door of the case a little bit.

 

Anything you'd recommend?

if you have to open the top, I think you have given her enough. or you can up it till the driver crashes then back it down by 10 till its stable.

I only opened it because it was at around 83-84 degrees and used to crash at 1150 but when I took it off it easily handles 1150

unless you going to keep it that way i would drop it just a touch. i would just leave room for those hotter days in your room or give the gpu some breathing room. fps wont decrease by much of any if you drop it just a smudge for the sake of temps. this is all very personal though.

Highest I've ever seen on a stable 7970 was on a custom loop, who managed to squeeze ~1250mhz
