Ok I'm running a EVGA 760 GTX 980mhz stock. On MSI Afterburner I brought voltage +12, power limit 110, core clock at 220 and memory at 300. That brought me from 980mhz to 1200mhz with 1253 boost and memory from 1502 to 1652. During MSI kombuster stress test my FPS mostly hung around high 40s and low 50s max with temps maxing out at 80-81c. Wasn't too impressed with FPS really, but I noticed that there was different kinda of stress test also, Furry MSI, Furry Donut and more. I also noticed that the FPS on each test differs. I got the 40-50 FPS on the Furry MSI test but when I ran the Plasma (1M-particle), I held 70+ FPS
Would like to have some opinions on this OC and/or some better options for OCing

Yeah Heaven will work just as well. Yeah if it crashes then pull it back a bit.

vram = memory when overclocking your graphics card, sorry that wasnt clear.

Unigine valley is a good benchmark for checking performance improvements.

I wouldnt go higher on the GPU clock, at 81'c GPU boost will be pulling the clock speed back, so its not worth going higher than that.

You may be able to go higher on the vram though, keep going higher and testing with Unigine Valley until you either start to get lower scores (error checking kicking in) or artifacting. Then save the profile when your done.

I have unigen heaven, if theres a difference? Not sure how to raise vram yet, looking into that. Just was on IL2 Cliffs of Dover for a like 15 mins and game crashed so I'm gonna tune it back a bit
I do have a question though. While running GPUZ I knoticed that my Video Engine load is always at 0%, is that right??

Had a strange occurrence yesterday I knoticed. I got some in game monitoring set up through Rivatuner and while playing IL2 Cliffs of Dover, it read that my GPUs frequency was only 135mhz at 60% or so load. But fps was just fine at like 50 to 60 fps. But when I tried ARMA3 it was at 1200mhz+ at 80% load with no heat problems or anything. Cliffs of Dover is a pretty GPU heavy game, not like ARMA3 is but it should draw more of a load than that?? The game ran fine and all, I just found it strange. Maybe it was a censor thing with Rivatuner?
