As long as that temperature reading is accurate, I don't see
what you're doing hurting anything. That's a good temp.

If the card was crashing out, doing VPU recoveries or whatever
(screen goes black for a second), I would back off on the overclock.

You want your setup to work well enough, that if you're playing
over the Internet, your machine isn't crashing when playing in teams.

I will test those clocks on other games like crysis 2 with dx11 on for
an hour
if i detect the same 65-64 c max load is it fine to leave the card on
those clocks ? and is 1ghz achievable on the same voltage right now , im
sure 40 mhz will not cause the card to go above 75c which is a border
line , my card atm already outperforms the original gtx 460 with the 256
bit memory , i tested my card on the same clocks of the original one ,
both on 960mhz using 3dmark11 and the 460 v2 " the one that i have got a
higher score , 4350 to 3890
