Hi, I'm wondering if you should increase the GPU voltage beyond what you're using. When I ran Heaven Benchmark with +20mV, I noticed some artifacts, so I stuck at +25mV. After switching to +13mV when the benchmark wasn't active and then running it again, no artifacts appeared. I'm a bit unsure about the best approach and how long to keep it that way.

if you receive artifacts back it down, that's not acceptable.

Yesterday I maintained the Heaven benchmark with Core Voltage +13mV, Power Limit +20%, Core Clock 1121Mhz, and Memory Clock 1516Mhz. Temperatures remained steady at 80-82°C throughout the test without any anomalies. Should I slightly increase the clock speeds or maintain the current settings?
