check if your gtx 970 is safe to overclock
so basically i installed my gtx 970 with msi after burner and set it up to this link.
and started Heaven Benchmark 4.0, comparing before and after the oc.
here is the score before and after: the one before was http://imgur.com/vp2YubA and after it's http://imgur.com/vp2YubA.
i got 16 fps more, which is really good, but i'm curious if it's safe.
my temperature while running the benchmark stayed between 60-63.
times look stable, proceed and play a few rounds to check for any artifacts or issues. I tested it on my 980ti, everything was fine except for Witcher 3 where his head would flicker between black and white. Run some games for a while and use Realbench to verify real-world performance. If temperatures remain consistent, you're safe.

Run some games for a while, also try Realbench to see how it performs in real life. If everything is running smoothly at the same temps, you're good to go.
