I would if you have adequate cooling, u have a k chip after all. If you keep the voltage within spec or lower, and the temperature is good, it is perfectly safe. With a little reading you will be fine if you want to try it. I have been overclocking for years and I have yet to kill any of my parts.

At default settings turbo mode is on for the CPU. It will increase core speed depending on work load, but not across all cores. Your gpu does a similar thing. It will reach a boost speed depending on a few factors. The max rated boost speed as advertised without overclocking. What games you are playing, and the temperature you're running the card at.
