Overclocking the r7 360

[GiorgosGls]

Well i have overclocked my r7 360 to 1250 mhz core clock and 1800 Mhz memory clock. Is this safe or am i going to damage my GPU?
My max temps are 80 C running UNIGINE heaven.

Specs:
i5 6420p
r7 360
msi gaming grade m/b
8 gigs of ram
500w PSU

Thanks in advance! 😀

Btw my stock speeds were
1200 core clock
1500 memory clock

I'm not sure how well cooled that memory is where it lays on the PCB, if you get any artifacts at all back it off. But no , that fine. I beat the heck out of my Bonaire GPU for years (basically what a tabago is no matter how they renamed it)

Um i got 95 up to 98 degrees playing BF4 is that still safe? But i was playing at Ultra tbh.
And yes the card has a fair amount of room for cooling.
Btw this is not my pc it's my nephew's pc. I built it for him so i really want some stable stuff.
Im pretty confiident of my OCs but yet i am asking just to make sure 😀

Those temps are pushing it, based on what I know of the card I don't know if you're getting good enough air flow to it. When they hit around that 90 degree mark at full load I get concerned with not having it go further than that. Based on the minimal increased performance you'll get from that overclock (1-2 frames) I don't think it's all that worth it.

Seems a bit too hot.
