No, unless you interact with voltages and your temperatures are stable. You'll begin to notice artifacts first, followed by a drop in benchmark scores when you overuse OC memory, causing your OC to fall to -25mhz.

But isn't the main difference just the core voltage itself? The memory is indeed influenced by it as well.

Occasionally adjusting the core clock is necessary to stabilize higher VRAM clocks and vice versa. It's important to benchmark and test your card's behavior. You don't have to modify the core voltage; just keep it at the default level and ensure full safety. I use MSI afterburner, start by pushing the power limit to its maximum, then begin testing with core clock adjustments. When crashes or artifacts occur, reduce the OC to -15mhz. Next, test with memory clock adjustments, but if you encounter VRAM drops of -25mhz from the first issue, proceed accordingly.

Yes, that's what I use as well and I've reached the maximum core clock I can get. (stable)
I asked this since I heard the VRAM is pushed further to its limits by the card manufacturer than the core, making it more risky to overclock it.
Thanks for your reply and sorry for my English!
