Hi guys, I got an HD7850 which im replacing in november-december, but for now im trying to extract every performance I can from her but I also don't want to damage her since she needs to last at least till the end of this year.

 

My card runs at 1140mV by default at max., I unlocked the core voltage on msi afterburner and im testing it out. What is the max voltage I should use on this card? Is 1160mV safe? Need some tips and help here to not damage her.

I think that as long as the voltage is within safe thermals you'll be fine.
