I have been pondering this for a while now if i edit my video card bios and up the voltage from 1.05 which is stock to 1.5 volts what will i gain from this? Will it overclock higher will it be more stable and yes i know make sure my cooling is up to it and it is.

So i figured before i flash the bios with the new one i created with NiBiTor which the only thing i changed was the voltage and also upped the fan speeds and the base freq to what i know is stable on stock which is 675\1750\1900 I wanted to know if it is worth the slight risk that i could kill the card.

That is a lot of VGPU dude. I really dont think it is worth it. GPU's are sensitive, I wouldn't go above 1.3v.

Dont expect overclocking miracles, at that point the power regs on the card will not be giving clean power which will inhibit your OC.

You shouldn't expect much of a bonus at all. If that is your main card, then i would not do this.
