It's quite straightforward, each card is unique so you'll need to challenge yourself! Install MSI Afterburner and avoid changing the voltage; instead, gradually increase the core clock by +25 at a time, using 3Dmark (Firestrike) to monitor for artifacts or crashes. Once you reach your maximum core clock without voiding the warranty or adding extra voltage, repeat the process for memory after identifying your peak core speed.

Bishopi5 explains that each card is unique, so you need to test yourself. Download MSI Afterburner and avoid changing voltage; instead, gradually increase the core clock by +25 at a time, using 3Dmark (Firestrike) to check for artifacts or crashes. Reduce the speed slightly once you reach your maximum core clock without voiding warranty or adding extra voltage. Repeat this process for memory after identifying your max core speed. When boosting clocks, also test a few of your favorite games alongside benchmarks such as Firestrike and Heaven.

It's quite straightforward, each card behaves uniquely, so you'll need to challenge yourself! Install MSI Afterburner and avoid touching the voltage; just increase the core clock by +25 at a time, testing with 3Dmark (Firestrike) until you notice artifacts or crashes. Then gradually reduce it back, which means you've reached your optimal core clock without voiding the warranty or adding extra voltage. Repeat this process for memory once you identify your maximum core speed.

When you boost the clocks, consider trying a few of your favorite games alongside benchmarks such as Firestrike and Heaven.

I'm sure it's worth a try, though none of my games really force the card to its limits like Firestrike does. Artifacts or crashes appear more often in Firestrike, but if you're aiming to squeeze more performance from your card, this method could help. Most games won't push the GPU as far as Firestrike, so you won't see artifacts or crashes as frequently there.
