Picked up a 212 EVO today and idk why but it triggered me to want to OC my GPU as well, so we went it.

Thx to @vinyldash303 for guiding me through the process.

 

Here are the screenshots of progress made :)

 

First 4 Screenshots = Tinkering with core clock.

Last 2 Screenshots = Tinkering with memory clock.

 

Overclocking the core -

Part 2:

Changes Made: Finally hit 7,000 :) Lowered core voltage further, think we have been feeding it too much :P

The scores seem a bit low.

 

I'm pretty sure I used to get higher with a 670 coupled with a stock CPU.

we werent testing max clock speeds, just stable :)

Yeah this. We've been on skype for about 3 hours now OCIng this thing. We still had plenty of voltage left and this thing wasn't unstable. Just trying to get a decent 24/7 stable clock. If we were going for max we probably could've gotten closer to 7000.

AND YOU DIDN'T LET ME KNOW?
