Overclocking Your GPUįirst off, we'd like to mention that, should you stick within safe guidelines and keep your wits about you, overclocking your graphics card is a totally safe way to squeeze out a 10-25 percent performance boost. If you've got room to maneuver with temperature-wise, it's time to start overclocking. If you'd like to know the exact percentage of performance boost you receive, run a Kombustor BENCHMARK before and after overclocking. It's a good idea to clean your PC before overclocking, making sure to remove any dust that may be trapped in your GPU's cooling system. A healthy temp for your graphics card is anywhere from sub 65☌ to 90☌ while gaming (or running a stress test), though you're aiming for under 85☌ to be safe.
