Hey community,
Have been playing around a bit with overclocking my EVGA GTX 580 3GB card using MSI Afterburner with little performance increase and I thought I could get a few tips from the pros.
After a bit of research I found a good oc is 832 Mhz on the core clock but havn't really noticed any difference in Skyrim (or Heaven).
My question is, Does a performance increase only become evident when you dial up the voltage?
Before I go messing with voltages what is a safe level for this card?
Is there anything else I should keep in mind when overclocking?
PS: I know for Skyrim I would probably get better performance overclocking the CPU (i7 860) but I'm not really confident in messing with BIOS just yet.
Thanks in adavance
