I have an ASUS RX 560 with 2GB OC edition graphics card. I'm trying to overclock it but am unfamiliar with the process and worried about damaging my motherboard. I don't know the right settings for a safe overclock, such as power limit or clock speeds. Do you know how to do this safely?

Use CPUID HWMonitor for temperature tracking. Maintain CPU and GPU temps under 85°C. Install fans if needed to keep the case and motherboard cool. Even basic fans suffice. For overclocking, refer to this guide: Motherboards can deliver up to 75W to the GPU without exceeding limits.

Even inexpensive options are effective. For overclocking, refer to this guide: Motherboards can deliver up to 75W to the GPU without exceeding limits, so it's safe.
