Hello everyone, I was just wondering if this overclock I am using with my Asus GTX 970 Turbo is good. I'm using GPU Tweak 2.0 and have a GPU Boost Clock of 1398MHz which is 170MHz increase. Min. Voltage is the highest it can go at 1175mV, an increase of 163mV. Max. Voltage is also the highest it can go at 1213mV, an increase of 38mV. Memory clock speed is 8610MHz, which is an increase of 1600MHz. Also, power target is set to the maximum of 110%, and GPU Temp target is set to the maximum of 91 Degrees Celsius. But, I'm using user-defined fan cooling patterns so my GPU stays at about 78 degrees Celsius under full load. So, is this a good overclock? Do you think I should go higher or lower anywhere? Thanks!
Solution
Looks good 
Can try reducing voltage which will drop heat a little, but may need the voltage. Could also see if it will edge any higher

I can't lower the voltages or I lose stability, so I guess this is a good OC all-around for me. I was also wondering, I've heard that people hack the BIOS or something to make voltages go higher than programs usually let them, would that be the only way for me to get a higher overclock at this point? Because, even though I only have a stock cooler, heat isn't an issue.

While it can be done, I don't really recommend it to folks, you get into a fine line of having to watch things and have seen many fry their GPUs
