I have an EVGA 980 Ti ACX SC+ ACX 2.0+ and had a couple questions about overlcocking it.

I cant find a max safe core voltage listed anywhere online but i have seen bios mods that allow up to 1.3v, is 1.3v safe for this card?

I can get 1440 core speed but doesnt matter what i change the +mv or power limit to it will run that stock voltage but any higher and it artifacts like crazy, not sure if even more than the +87mv limit on afterburner will make any difference or thats just this cards limit.

I have no problems at 8ghz memory, tried it, it worked and didnt touch it again.

My temps max at 64c with +87 mv and 60c on stock voltage


I am by no means upset with the card, just curious if there is anything i can do to push it further
 
Solution
It's generally recommended to not go much higher than ~1.25v on air cooling as any more than that gets the VRMs quite hot. 1.3v+ is water cooling territory.
