So I just got my PC yesterday it has a evga ftw 970 and I wanted to know if this was a safe and good overclock I use Msi afterburner and I increased the core volt by 85 MHz making its over all clock 1503mhz and I put the memory clock up by 350mhz making its overall 3856mhz I didint touch the voltage option and I increased the power limit to 110. I used vally benchmark and ran it multiple times and no crashes. So is this safe and good?

If it doesn't throw up any errors or crashes and the temps are good then I guess you could say it is a decent OC, however I find GPU Boost 2.0 does a good enough overclock, it puts my 970 up to 1535 on its own.

I'm just really confused because my card just does not wanna go over a overclock of plus 80mhz even with no memory overclock but yet when it's stable at 80mhz I can raise the memory over clock to 500mhz and still be stable is that normal also my cards asic rating is 74.9% and from what I understand that's really good.
