    Hey guys,

    I have a g73JH--updated vbios, 211 bios and 10.10 CCC--and was wondering what OC settings people were using for their GPU. I was messing around with Overdrive and tried settings like 725/1050, 750/1050, 700/1100, etc. I can't seem to find something stable, I always get a GSOD or freeze...sometimes 30min into gaming, othertimes 1-2hrs. Any recommended settings? Does it hurt anything by continuing to tweak to find something stable despite the occassional GSOD?
    BTW...default 700/1000 setting is completely stable

    Thanks!

    I use 800/1100 with no problems. You may want to download GPU-Z and log your temperatures. Then again, all systems are made different. Some can go as high as 850/1175, some can barely stay stable on 700/1000. It may be just bad luck. But if your temperatures go over 90, I'd consider a repaste.

    there is no such thing like stable OC
    if you want stable clocks those are given by the manufacturer 700/1000 everything more is unstable
    you need to experiment to find out
    i can get mine to 840/1100
    some can get their memory to 1300
    so if you got more time experiment
