specs:
graphics card: AMD HD Radeon 7950

processor: AMD fx-6300 Vishera

Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-970A-DS3 ATX AM3+

memory: G.Skill Ripjaws X Series 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR3-1866

storage: Western Digital Caviar Blue 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM

power supply: Corsair 500W ATX12V

Cpu cooler: Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO 82.9 CFM Sleeve Bearing


I am looking into overclocking my graphics card but not quite sure what to overclock it to.
gpu clock settings 900 (out of 1200)
memory clock settings 1250 (1575)

Also I was wondering if I should keep my computer on automatic fan control. Do I use manual when I overclock it?
Lastly, I was wondering what safe temperatures there are for my computer.

Thanks

I would advise to take up a PSU with 550 or 600 W, for increased life span and just to be on the safe side while overclocking. Else it looks like very solid list. Also automatic fan control wont be a problem. But there will be a problem if you set you manually set your fans too low.

Do you know what a good temperature range is for gaming, and what the max temperature range is for graphics cards like mine?
