    It's overclockable yes...

    Use ntuner. Be careful not to clock it too high!

    ntune 6.03 ftw dont bother with the rest.
    my clocks: 600/850/1500
    original clocks 500/799/1250

    if you do oc,monitor you gpu temps at all times,
    keep hwmonitor in the background while gaming.

    since the op never oc his gpu b4 (maybe) i reckon ntune will be much easier on him.

    anyway, to each his own.
