I am new to video cards and I just got the 7950. I want to OC it but I don't know what the recommended amount would be? Or if I need to change any of the other settings on it.

Most 7950's will let you over clock the vram to 1575. The gpu clock speed is gunna vary. My main card is stable at 1040 MHz at stock voltage. Haven't messed with voltage at all as it already gets pretty hot in crossfire mode because of the second card below it.

If your HD7950 have a good cooling you should aim for 1200Mhz on core and 1500Mhz for the memory.
If your HD7950 have a reference cooler you should aim for 1000Mhz on core and 1500Mhz for the memory.
in both case you need to rise the vcore as well.
