Can i overclock

[L3THALSHADOWz]

I have a ASUS HD 7790 DirectCU II 1 GB GPU. I want to overclock to get better performance in a wider amount of games. Right now under full load the max my card increases to is 64C. Am i able to overclock? Is the temperature it is now safe and do you know around what temperature it would be. BTW i have a AMD FX8320 CPU

Yes you can. My R9 290 actively tries to get itself to 95 degrees. I would say ~85 degrees is safe for that card.

Just download MSI Afterburner - http://event.msi.com/vga/afterburner/download.htm

Run it and increase the power limit by a good amount, say 10%.

Then, increase the Memory Speed and Core Speed in small increments and test each time you do it.
