Hello guys!

I just overclocked my GPU using it's recommended GPU Tweak II program.

I increased the:

-GPU clock from 990mhz to 1070mhz
-GPU voltage from 1200mV to 1250mV
-Memory clock from 1425mhz to 1500mhz
-Fan speed percentage +26%
-And the power target from 100% to 120%

Is it safe? I keep getting 74 degrees in GPU intense games for hours..it doesn't crash etc.

And can I add a bit more and where to increase performance if possible?

Thanks!

Solution
I have R9 380 4gb,1100mhz core clock (from 990mhz),memory clock 1425mhz,runs between 55C-70C,at 50% fan curvature (perfect balance between sound and performance for my r9 380 4gb g1 gigabyte),rarely crashes,been running on that overclock for 5 months.From what i see here if it doesnt crash,runs at high temps,its perfectly fine.Both r9 380/390x run very hot and its normal for them,so no worriers they are just made that way.

Wow that is pretty good, I mean the temps, I was just playing shadow of war, and the temp was 75, I hope it is not too much though.

Oh and what do you mean at 50% fan curvature?
I know it should amp up somewhere, where did you set for 50% to start and where to amp up further than 50%? Sorry my English sucks

when i play nfs heat i sometimes turn settings to HIGH/On.It peaked at 84C when im in the garrage since that is the most demanding thing the gpu has to render in the game.When im driving it drops to 65-70C.I play on 1920x1200.Its a pretty beasty GPU,for a 5 year old gpu at least

Agreed, a great GPU, got mine for 50$, very happy with it! I am just always confused about the noise, it gets kinda loud at 2300RPM, is that normal even?
