I’m testing MSI afterburner and my GPU is at 139 MHz with a Mem clock of 405 MHz. The temperature stays steady at 33°C. My setup includes a GeForce GTX 1080 Armor 8G OC, a Corsair fan (exact model unknown), an ASRock Z370 Pro 4-IB motherboard, a 240 W SSD, some unnamed liquid cooling component, and 16 GB of RAM. My PC runs around 3.7 GHz, and I’m curious about the safest overclocking potential. Any advice would be appreciated?

How much depends on your luck when getting a strong chip.
5.0 could be your potential outcome.
To stay safe, keep an eye on your vcore.
Your maximum might be 1.4 during a stress test.
In real situations, you'll likely perform better.
I discovered that using a current bios (1.30) for the similar asrock z370M pro4 really made a big impact on overclocking.
