Default GPU Overclocking

Anyone else have their GPU overclocked?

Previously I had my core and memory OC'd 150+ with MSI Afterburner when I was just messing around with Afterburner.

Today I downloaded the free version of 3DMark Firestrike and went to work on my air cooled MSI GTX 750Ti.

Original GPU score: 4832 (150+)

I was able to settle on my core at 180+ and memory at 170+.

Final GPU score was 4910.

Not bad, but noticeable.

I can take all the sliders and slam them to the right. Water cooled card doesn't care. Doesn't seem to crash either, it just limits itself before crashing.

Custom bios made a bigger impact than overclocking though. The only issue is it broke a few new games.

I saw some custom bios options that messed with the voltage for my card. But since it only pulls power from the MB, I didn't go down that route.

Current fan curve... wwweeeEEE!

Don't really care for the noise since I'm always using headphones anyways.

Fan percentage stays between 70-80% when playing BF4 on medium settings.
