Is this a good overclock?

I think I might have increased my voltage too high. Anyways, is this good for a 970 or do you think I can push it further.

 

EDIT: Idle Temps are 50C~   Load Temps are 75C~

Specs: i7-4790k with Thermaltake Water 3.0, EVGA GTX 970, MSI Z97 Gaming 3, Kingston HyperX 2x8 DDR3 1600Mhz, SSD Boot Drive/1TB HD, CM Storm Stryker, EVGA Supernova G2 750W

Peripherals: SS Rival, HyperX Cloud, G710+

My boost clock is higher, you can push it. (970 G1 gaming fyi)

What is your voltage?

Should I increase it or not

1.218V, 1418 Boost clock on current driver, not sure if you can increase it to much more 1.245 is usually the max limit

I reset my system and retried the overclock

 

Got a boost clock of 1450 with voltage peak at 1.25~

Well if it's stable and not too hot role with it.

Did you set a custom fan curve? The default one on my 970 runs the fans pretty low and I got mid 70s load temps too, though idle is usually around 33C. I put a more aggressive curve and load temps are now 65C. And your overclock crushes mine, 1367 MHz is the highest stable boost clock I can get (though GPU Boost 2.0 takes it to a constant 1418 MHz under load in gaming).

1.25V with 1430..That's what my friend do. Works pretty stable I'd say
