Hi. I just wanted to let you know about my first overclock attempt. I used EVGA precision X Power Target at 132%, with a GPU clock offset of 115mhz (anything higher could cause the Heaven Benchmark to crash and display strange errors). The memory clock offset is set to 500mhz. How do you feel about it? Everything seems stable so far, the benchmark runs fine.

The performance boost lasted as long as it didn't cause artifacts, crashes, or overheating.

That's a great setting for a first-gen Kepler card. If you haven't adjusted the voltage yet, increase it slightly and aim for a more significant overclock.
😛
For stability, once you're satisfied with that setting, run a benchmark or GPU test for at least an hour or two. Good luck!

I ran heaven for around 15 minutes. I plan to do it again for an hour next time when I run my PC. I increased the voltage to 1025. Regardless of what I tried, I couldn't make the card stable above 115Mhz offset, so that's probably the limit. Still quite satisfied, especially since this is my first ever OC.
