Question Overclocking RX 570 8gb with Ryzen 5 3600

[Pcbuilder55]

So i recently upgraded to AM4 and got a Ryzen 5 3600 with a X570 MSI Motherboard with 16GB 3200mhz ram. I am currently using a MSI Rx 570 This (https://www.newegg.com/msi-radeon-r...-8g-oc/p/N82E16814137291?Item=N82E16814137291) is what is my newegg order history. looks a bit different but specs seem to be the same. It says that the base clock is 1268 and OC mode is 1281 although because i cant use gaming app I'm unable to change the mode that it is in. I did use AMD Radeon setting to raise the the mhz to 1440 and mV to 1150. and the memory to 1975 mhz and 900 mV. Seems like while gaming in ghost recon breakpoint my fps went up from about 38-42 to high 40's-50. Temps seem to be the same around mid 60C. Seems stable as I played with these setting for almost an hour. Has anyone over clocked this card to some other numbers? What should I set it to? I am considering upgrading the card on Black Friday to a 2070 or a 5700xt. Lemme know your thoughts on that too. Might have the opportunity to swap out the 3600 for maybe a ryzen 9 3900. so want to possibly pair that with a matching card.Should I just leave it at those numbers as 50fps in breakpoint on high-veryhigh settings is good for me. other games like Forza or Siege all stay at 75fps (vsync) on high settings.

I don't own the card but I should state, since you're overclocking, you're making it eat up more power and that power will dump heat into your case. Make sure your case's airflow is optimal to deal with the temps and that you don't kill your parts prematurely.

Well I have a corsair 570X case. Its the most free flowing case but I have 3 exhaust fans. 2 on top and 1 in the back. in the front I have a radiator for the AIO cooling in a push pull configuration. At these settings its looking like its around the same temp. 65-70C. Since I raised the clock speed and mV remained maybe it is a bit too hot now. Maybe I'll turn the mV down to about 1080 and drop the mhz to around 1380. Which would still be around 100mhz over stock speed. You have any recommendations for a good matching card for ryzen 5 3600 or the ryzen 9 3900x if I get the chance to upgrade (as I might know someone wanting this one)
