Hi! Well I just OC'd my GPU slightly. Should I put it back?

In CCC: High Performance GPU Clock = 890
High Performance Memory Clock = 1260
Fan = 55%
Temp while typing this = 30 - 35 - 40, while playing BF3 for a couple of hours = 60 - 70.

Those temps are more than fine.

Only worry about dialing them back if you run into stability issues.

I agree but ussually if you want to know if it is stable run a benchmark if it crashes reboot and lower the clocks a little then if you get a Bench that runs and complete's at the mention clocks then you are A-Ok also make sure the temps don't exceed 85c that is when you will run into big problems good luck :p

3D Mark 11 is good also. Although it is only good for just a few uses without buying it.
