970 high overclocking

[iownhaha]

Hi everyone! Just overclocking my new Msi 970 and have been able to get pretty high overclocks without any artifacting avg 65c. core clock 1620 (+300) , mem raised 600. just wondering if Maybe Msi afterburner isn't working correctly or i have gotten a great card. thanks

is that 65c average when idle or when on load? Also you'd want to test stability with Frumark, AIDA64, and some Cinebench. Monitor your temps with a stress test running aand see then. Also, how much did you raise the voltage?

That's a huge overclock, is that using stock voltage?
I've never seen MSI Afterburner be wrong so I wouldn't see why it would display your speeds incorrectly.
If that is on stock voltage and you have stress tested it to make sure it's stable, I'd say you got a good card.
