so im pushing my card to its max, and the memory clock just keeps letting me increse it, no crashes yet im at 1750 and gonna try 1800, but im starting to wonder if its safe?

my temp is sitting at 75C so its not TOO hot.

How's your VRM temps?

You don't need ram that fast to get where you need to go!
