I just purchased a new GPU, the Gigabyte GTX 1060 G1 Gaming with 6GB RAM.
I'm trying to overclock it using MSI Afterburner, but it keeps crashing.
Here are the settings I used:
Core Voltage: +10
Power Limit: 111
Temp Limit: 92
Core Clock: +85
Mem Clock: +250
Fan speed: 65%
It's strange because I've seen many people overclock this exact model and they're doing just fine...
What could I be doing wrong?

You're right about this being an OC edition! It's almost fully used up with no space left. Giving it the extra heat and noise for a small performance boost doesn't seem like a good idea. Just run it on stock and get going.

You do realize it's an OC edition!? It will be pretty much maxed already. Very little room to maneuver. To be honest, having the extra heat and noise for what can be 5% increase in performance just isn't worth it.
Run it on stock and enjoy it.

Each GPU is unique, simply because others might claim they can do it. But that doesn't mean you can either. Are you using the Dell PSU?
