I have recently installed msi afterburner to over clock my Asus r9 280x v2 top 3gb vid card. I had recently tried Asus gpu tweak and the catalyst to over clock but they were not working properly. However all these programs max out just above factory settings. 1100mhz for the core clock (factory setting is 1070mhz) and 1500mhz for the memory clock. Online when watching others over clock the same card on YouTube there programs let them go much farther past these benchmarks. I don't want to push the limits but I would like to go more then 30mhz past the factory settings. How do I get msi to let me go past these small increases and get the options I see in tutorial videos?
