I attempted 220/340 but experienced GPU freezing in games, 3DMark performance issues, and artifacts in ATITool.

When trying to jump to other people's overclocks, remember that each card is unique. Start with 10Mhz/20Mhz and check stability at each step. If you're not keen on spending time overclocking, it won't be very effective. The process can take a while, especially to reach the highest stable setting. I'm not trying to be rude about this.
Also, consider stress testing using the Unigine Valley benchmark or 3DMark FireStrike.

Your card has power restrictions (8-pin connector) and is set to a fixed voltage of 1.212v. It's highly dependent on the specific chip being used. Honestly, you're at the mercy of the manufacturing process. Your overclock seems to be inconsistent. Consider gradually reducing the core until it stabilizes.
