Unigine Heaven serves as a standard for testing GPUs. You can obtain it at the provided link:

In the graphics settings, ensure you're using the ultra preset.
After launching the program, allow it to run continuously for an hour to verify GPU stability. If instability occurs, your GPU may crash or display glitches.
I hope this explanation is clear.

Download a tool like MSI Afterburner, adjust the slider to achieve your desired speed. Modify fan settings or other parameters. You likely won't need to fine-tune voltage for a gentle overclock. Monitor temperatures while gaming.

MSI afterburner is a popular choice for customizing graphics performance, while Asus offers its own software for overclocking. Each has its own advantages depending on your needs.

You can easily surpass the standard OC mode. To reach the overclock variant, open MSI Afterburner and adjust the core slider for clock speed differences. For example, subtract 1506 from 1620 to get 114mhz. Add this value into your overclock tool (MSI Afterburner). Next, test Unigine Heaven for an hour; if it runs continuously for 60 minutes, it indicates stability.

Please clarify the meaning of the instructions you received. You asked for more details about running Unigine Heaven for one hour and interpreting the condition about it looping for 60 minutes to ensure stability.

Asus provides its own software for the Strix. I use it on my 1080 and it functions well. Afterburner also works... It's just a matter of personal preference.
