and my question is the guru3d oc safe?

guru3d is fine yes, that OC is fine.

 

 

I recommend testing everything yourself and using those settings they used as a base line, every card clocks differently, and every card responds differently to voltage & temps.

And if the settings are not good and temp will be highe how do i underclock it safe? do i just lower the volt? or memory clock?

should i start like  i have in the photo? or just go all in and copy form the website

If you don't like the temperature just turn down the core clock or increase the fan speed.
