You should be able to do it regardless of mobo using software like EVGA Precision X or MSI Afterburner.

am going to but the gtx 970 or maybe i should would for the 300 serious. whatever to oc this cards do the motherboard sth to do or it's all about the card it self ?

When OCing a GPU, it's all about the card, not the mobo. It's up to you whether you want to go with a current card or wait on a new launch. The 970 is pretty reasonably priced and has solid performance benchmarks. You can assume that the 300 series will also. You'll have to wait to know for sure what the differences in performance and price will be.

With your current setup, you should be able to run most modern games at medium to high settings while maintaining 30FPS+. There are a couple of websites that you can use to check your projected performance, like Game-Debate. You can also go to the website below:
