i have a sapphire r9 285 2gb clocked at 918mhz core and 1375mhz memory. i started overclocking my card and i reached 1060mhz clock and 1500mhz memory with +20% power limit and no increase in voltage. All this was done using msi afterburner 4.0.0. To test the stability and temps i used furmark 1.14.1.4. At stock speeds it gave me 84 fps. At overclocked mode it gave me 91 fps with a increase of 2 degrees in temp. So i decided to overclock it more and bumped up the core to 1070 and it started showing artifacts in unigine heaven. I dont wanna increase the voltage so i kept it at 1060mhz clock. I then bumped the memory to 1550mhz and then again ran furmark and it was stable but the fps dropped to 86fps. I dont know what am i doing wrong here cos i am new to overclocking.
so these are the fps-
core memory fps
918 1375 84
1060 1500 91
1060 1550 86
all these fps are using furmark at 1280 * 720 res and no aa.
full system specs-
cpu-Core i3 2100 3.10ghz
motherboard- GIGABYTE GA-H61M-s1
