Im trying to overclock my old gtx 980 without adding core voltage, it seems like after boosting +120 mhz core clock furmark test starts to crash after 1 minute but other benchmarks are running fine above that value without any artifacts.
Should i take furmark benchmark serious and left my core clock at 120 or increase the value until other benchmarks such as 3DMARK11 and Superposition crashes?

Furmark crashing, opposed to showing artifacts when Superposition etc does not, is strange.

Any signs of instability should be noted and may result in instability in 'real-world' applications - but personally I'd put more weigh behind the likes of Superposition...
