How far can I overclock this GPU?:

[very_452001]

My power supply is corsair 430M.

The GPU is this: 750 ti

So how far can I overclock this gpu on its stock fan/cooler at stable levels?

It depends on the individual card but you will not run out of power.

Ok you saying that my psu can handle the overclock?

 

[cst1992]

That PSU'll easily handle a card double the TDP of the 750Ti. You can easily overclock it. However, it depends on manufacturer. I can say ASUS cards allow higher clocks, but I could be wrong; my specific card could have allowed me that overclock.

 

[rolli59]

Yes your PSU can handle it since your current setup is barely pulling 200watts at stock.

Whats the best to use to overclock EVGA 750 ti?

 

[rolli59]

MSI afterburner is popular. Or just their own http://www.evga.com/precision/

This GPU is being powered by the PCI express slot only meaning no additional power pin connectors from the PSU to the GPU. You sure I can overclock safely? If yes how far should I overclock with Precision X?

Even with no pci-e connector you can get up to 1400mhz with these:

It depends on the individual card but the rule is to monitor temperature and be careful with voltage increase.

That's for the MSI 750 ti.

I have a EVGA 750 ti, whats the max I can overclock with this card at stable levels?

 

[rolli59]

Same answer you will not know without trying, it depends on the individual card!

What are the guidelines so I wont over do it the 1st time frying my card.

My GPU has a 2 Core clocks:
GPU core = 1020Mhz
GPU boost core = 1085mhz

Which one out of the 2 clocks above should I consider for my calculations?

 

[rolli59]

GPU core!

 

[very_452001]

Also I notice in Precision X that my GPU core clock goes higher than my overclock. I added 90 to 1020 so it should read 1110mhz but I see it goes to 1200Mhz. Why is that?

 

[rolli59]

Maybe it is the boost working.
