Hi,
I'm just starting with overclocking and want to know the steps. Should I install the XTreme Tuner app from the Galaxy website? What overclocking level should I aim for so the system stays within safe temperatures? My setup includes a 1070 Galaxy Exoc GPU and an i7-6700 non-K processor. I have three fans—two intake and one exhaust. I'm also running a 3DMark stress test, and my GPU temperature reaches about 77°C during max load while the CPU stays around 55°C. Thanks in advance!

I'm happy you've chosen to customize your GPU, it's enjoyable... The actual chip specifications aren't crucial for this kind of GPU tuning. I'd recommend using MSI Afterburner for the optimization process... I've seen it perform exceptionally well in GPU tuning scenarios... Just keep increasing the speed, testing, adjusting until you find what works... Keep pushing the voltage until it stabilizes, then proceed with memory configuration... It's quite challenging to damage a chip nowadays...

I've seen it perform exceptionally well in GPU overclocking scenarios... Just increase the speed, test, boost the speed, repeat until stable... gradually raise the voltage until it's consistent, then adjust the memory settings accordingly...
