So, the MSI Armor 1060 already comes with a factory overclock of I don't know what, but it's an overclock lol. Anyway, I have MSI afterburner and I keep it on +175MHz, because it is stable... but there are occasions where some games crash on it. It seems as though some games have different max overclock speeds I can put on, but I want to just keep it on one and not have to change it. Does anyone have an Armor 1060 who overclocked theirs? Thanks!
 

Greetings,
Yes, the ARMOR 1060 comes with a pretty beefy overclock of 100mhz i think (it was on the box i can't remember atm).
Well, for Overclocks i run this (Link) in MSI Afterburner, proved to be completely stable and artifact free... though i believe you can go as far as 800mhz on the memory without problems, as these cards (Pascal architecture) benefit a lot through memory overclocks.
Also, i've never gone above 61ºC on full load.


It's not the games that do that, that's a stability problem with the Overclock, that specific overclock setup seems to be on the verge of instability, as it crashes sometimes. A bit of extra voltage should help with that. (i mean atleast 5-10 extra, no more than that).

Hope this helped.
