core voltage and power limits for gtx 980
What core voltage and power limits should I set for MSI after burning the BIOS and overclocking the GPU? I'm using a Corsair RM750x PSU.
As long as your case has good airflow, I wouldn’t worry much while overclocking with afterburner and setting both voltage and power limits to maximum. Both are constrained by the BIOS, so you can’t cause damage through afterburner or similar tools. Just keep an eye on your temperatures to avoid throttling the GPU, otherwise you’ll miss out on any gains.

The thermal throttling threshold will vary based on the specific GPU model you're using.
Assuming your GPU will reduce clock speeds at 85°C, it indicates that the BIOS will lower core and VRAM timers to safeguard the hardware under these conditions.
When overclocking, it's important to keep below this threshold.
