That's not exactly how overclocking functions, you can't just set maximum values everywhere and expect it to work. It’s better to raise values gradually, such as the core clock in steps of 5 or 10MHz at a time. After that, run a stress test using something like Unigine Heaven. If it handles without crashing, increase the values again. Keep repeating the process.

It's not just about setting maximum values everywhere, or it might cause crashes or failure. You should gradually raise the numbers, such as the core clock in steps of 5 or 10MHz, then perform a stress test using something like Unigine Heaven. If it works without issues, increase again and continue this process.

I also looked up MSI GX960 overclocking and copied the numbers because I’m too lazy.

Repeat the process until you find a stable setting.
