these are my settings that i have set for my preset. i would recommend you crank the power limit all the way up, start out with +120-130 on the core clock and run a benchmark, i like valley benchmark and furmark, i use furmark first and run it max for about 5 minutes, if no crashes then i crank up the core clock by another 10 and repete till it crashes within 5 minutes of use. then i turn the core clock down by -5 and run it for 10 minutes, if it doesnt crash then i run valley benchmark for around 20-30 minutes and just leave it at that if i dont get any crashes. i usually dont bother much with the memory.

Check the stability of your PC before and then you can start Overclocking. Max out your power limit , then you can customize your fan curve for better efficiency. Start adding 25 MHz on the core and 50 MHz on the memory and then check your system stability with Unigine Heaven or other programs for 10-15 minutes. In the case of high temperatures (85+ degrees) , bluescreen , artifacts ,crashes ,just return to your previous stable overclock

personally with my card i was not able to get any more stable/higher overclock with a higher voltage so i just left it at stock. however you experience will probably be different, if you find a unstable overclock where sometimes it crashes and sometimes it doesn't, then increase the voltage by around 5-10 and see if its stable consistantly if that makes sense.

thats up to you, i dont notice really any performance increase in games however i do get a bump in score from benchmarks.
