Overvoltage GTX 980

[T0MMEN]

So, i can run my gpu at +150v core and +25ml volt. But i can also run it at +180 with +37 vcore.

Is it safe to run at max voltage? I mean my tempratures didnt change, when i play pubg my max temp is 66C, and in other games like overwatch its around 60C.

its fine

thats mhz and mv,not v/ml

I run max voltage on all of my cards. You'll be fine.

Depending on the GPU, it'll either max out at 1.212v or 1.282v...either is just fine.

+37 mV is not much overvoltage at all... Afaik it is impossible to do anything serious to Nvidia cards with standard overclocking software tools.

Also, I've done +400 mV to my R9 290 for a benchmark run and it's still just fine. Both Maxwell and Hawaii are 28 nm silicon parts.

What you need to mostly watchout, are the VRM temps, since in most cases the VRM is the first to blow up. Though under air you pretty much run into gpu core overheating issues before that.

I have a ghetto mounted aio, and a separate fan blowing on the vrams, so no problems there
