Solution
You can save the profile and enable it (or auto enable any profile) when you're going to play an 2D or 3D game. MSI Afterburner allows to do that.

Dear TechyInAZ,thank you!
 


Is not too hard. First you need to overclock your card in the settings you want and save the profile. After that, go to MSI Afterburner Settings -> Profiles.

There you can choose between bind a key from the keyboard to enable a profile, or enable a profile when a 3D or 2D game is launched.

When I click to apply the new settings ,the profile resets to the default! To zero Mhz/zero Mhz. How can I fix this? Everytime I try to save a profile it doesn't save!
