Hey all! So I was curious what a decient OC would be on something like an r9 380 2gb? The highest I've tested as been a core clock of 1133, memory clock of 1600, with 20% power limit. Hottest the card gets under full load is about 75c. Think I could push this baby a bit higher? I usually apply the OC in games like witcher to push out the 60 fps vsync cap for the pretty game play. :D

what voltage are you using ?

You can go as high as your car lets you , until , you don't like how noisy or hot , or unstable it is .

Honestly most overclocks very due to the silicon lottery. Basically if you can push it more and pass the stress tests you like to run on it for 24 hours then you should be good. If you experience issues with the OC, then dial it back down a bit. No one can tell you what your specific card will be able to get to.

Base voltage. MSI afterburner isn't letting me screw with it. So just using 20% max power limit.

go into the settings and enable voltage control and monitoring to  modify voltage.

Ah thanks! Now the thing isn't letting me save OC profiles. xD I should stop trying to mess with things right before work. :P
