My PSU is seasonic S12II-620 and the settings in the msi afterburner are fixed. I'm stuck at core voltage +87, power limit 106, core clock +140, memory clock +140. I can't adjust further because my temperature stays below 65°C. How can I get more power without risking overheating?

You probably can't get any more, and I wouldn't recommend any more even though your temps are fine. +140 on core clock is a pretty good spot to be stable at.
As always, mileage varies on overclocks since not every chip is the same. You might see some GPUs get a stable +200 while others can't go past +100. I'd say +140 is a decent spot.

You're likely at your best, and I wouldn't suggest pushing further even with stable temps. A core clock of +140 offers solid stability. As before, performance depends on the specific chip—some GPUs might hit +200, others cap around +100. +140 seems a reasonable choice. Also, if you adjust the power limit, could you gain more performance? What do you think about trying that?

The situation seems pretty limited, and I wouldn't suggest pushing further even with stable temperatures. A core clock of +140 offers decent stability. As before, performance depends on the specific chip; some GPUs might reach +200 while others cap around +100. +140 appears to be a reasonable range.

Additionally, if you adjust the power limit, could you gain more performance? What are your thoughts on trying that? You might manage to squeeze in another +10 to +20 by increasing the power limit, though you're likely already close to power clearance, especially if your CPU is also overclocked. Just be prepared for possible instability.
