I have an MSI GTX 1060 GAMING X 6G and I already overclocked it up to 2113 core clock and 8910 on the memory clock. I would like to go further with the core clock and I would like to know how much increment should I use as I add value to the core clock?

+150 on the core clock pushed me to 2113 already, if I try to go further than that I already experience crashing, volts are still set to default as of now. I need the input of experience overclockers, thanks for sharing the experience.

I am using MSI Afterburner as I overclock, by the way.

I would leave that alone as is. That card is already a overclocked version and your not going to get much performance increase over what you already have.
Take my advise or go for the max to get 2 more FPS or so if you wish.

Thanks for the input, I just want to know how much increment needed in the voltage as people overclock the GPU with raising the voltage.

Thanks again.

Push core until it's unstable, then back to default. Push memory to instability. Then drop memory a couple notches, and add clocks a few notches under prior level. If unstable, add upto 0.1v in stages. If stable, add clocks, memory 1 notch each until unstable then add voltage as before. Just keep going up in stages, until no stability possible no matter what you do, then back off clocks/memory 1 notch. That's a rough OC, you'll have to test a bunch, could take weeks, but you'll end up as OC as possible for stable conditions. Just watch the temps, lower voltage and necessary clocks/memory, if temps are getting out of hand, regardless of whether you can maintain stability.
