Hi guys recently got my gtx670, and i am quite new to overclocking the card so i am not sure what values i should change and what i should not. I am using MSI Afterburner, so could anyone help me with the values i should change in MSI Afterburner. Thanks

Ghm, why do you want to OC the GPU card?.. All You are going to get is probably 5 to 10% of gain at best, but if you render a lot the You'll probably burn down the card faster. OverClocking GPU is not the same as CPU where You eaily expext 20 % boost. And doing havy OC on GPU without good WaterCooling loop is also not so wise..

oh if thats the case then ill probably stick with what i have. Yeah was just curious if the performance would be a lot different if i overclocked it. Thanks for the Tip!

I tested for a bit on 4 gpus, 2x 580 + 590..
only, you still get the 10% increase in performace, and it is already too hot of a rig, and not really worth the trouble, you also want stability

Yeah, it's not worth bothering with OC on GPUs (unless You waterCoole it)
..Lost stability & noise because card will generate more heat
(higher rpm of your fan will start to appear faster even on idle run..)
