New build - out of the loop - OC CF 280X

[413x]

Rebuilt my PC after a long time without one

looking to get a decent OC on 2x 280X MSI gamings

Monitor is a u2711 1440P

Are there any safe limits i can jump to?
Should i use powertune?
And is GPU or Memory clock more of a priority?

I have just installed MSI Afterburner


I only use my GPUS for games really
(other software uses my CPU heavily)

msi afteburner.
1,3mv is the value I wouldn't want to cross.

Im sure you dont need to OC CF280x unless you want to beat some benchmark scores.
It should be powerful enough for most/if not all games at 1440p on max settings, except AAs?

Haha I'm fine where I am.
Notice the question mark at the end? Means I wasn't 100% sure.
Had 7950 crossfire and that was able to play most games on max.
Have 280x crossfire coming tomorrow so we'll see.
Also on 1440p

You need OC in Crysis 3(all max and 8xMSAA) and Tomb Raider(all max+4 SSAA).
I'm playing 1920x1200p so 1440p will be even more demanding

Yeah, as you can see, I did state max, "except AAs".
