Hi,
I decided to give it a shot at overclocking my GPU. I followed the instructions in the guide you linked:
http://for my graphics card which is Gigabyte 980ti as found here:
http://I overclocked to the clocks that the link on the guide recommended core clock at +155mhz and memory at +350mhz using MSI afterburner.
I ran a few tests of Valley, everything worked well then I left FireStrike Ultra running in a loop for two hours; temperatures stayed in the low 70s.
While playing Witcher3 I experienced some black screens and had to restart the computer. What part of the overclocking process is most likely causing this?
Core clock, memory clock, core voltage?

Cheers

Try core first, then mem one at a time. Also give the voltage a slight boost. I usually set my fan profile to maximum once the temperature hits 60°C. This only happens when I can’t hear the fans any more (gaming with headset on).
