You have to enable unofficial overclocking 😛. Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\MSI Afterburner, then edit MSIAfterburner.cfg then change these values to this just make sure they match

UnofficialOverclockingEULA = I confirm that I am aware of unofficial overclocking limitations and fully understand that MSI will not provide me any support on it
UnofficialOverclockingMode = 1

Quick note, just be careful you don't wanna over-volt your card. Happy overclocking ^_^.

i tried this, man but the it's still the same. voltage doesn't raise, but strangely, i haven't crashed yet. i'll monitor this for an hour.
