No one can say for sure about that. Every card has its own limits when it comes to overclocking. My feeling is that the built-in Nvidia technology usually gives good performance without any trouble, but if you really want to push past those limits manually, I'd recommend watching a few videos on how it works. This card isn't brand new, but it covers the subject well enough. MSI Afterburner has made a huge difference here. Check out this link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vUEMS-B1Siw

No one can answer that question. Every single card can handle different overclocks. In my opinion, the built-in Nvidia GPU boost tech usually gives you decent performance out of the box. But if you want to manually tweak settings, I'd suggest looking at some videos on the subject. This video is a bit older but has very detailed info. Also, MSI Afterburner really changed things a lot here. Check it out: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vUEMS-B1Siw
