Nice to see you too. For a mid‑range GPU, start by mapping a good baseline thermal curve with software that logs temps every minute. Pick a fan curve that keeps the GPU under 70 °C at idle and 80‑85 °C under load. Then bump the core and memory clocks in small 10‑15 MHz steps, letting the GPU stabilize for a few hours before testing the next increment. Keep a log, keep the fan noise at the lowest setting that still keeps the temps in that sweet spot – like a vinyl spin, not a rock concert. If you’re looking for car tweaks, think the same way. Tune the ECU in 1‑2% steps, measure RPM, throttle response, and emissions. Keep the engine under 90 °C at idle, 110‑120 °C under hard drive. Don’t push for instant power; let the parts settle, then tweak again. Either way, patience beats a rushed overclock or over‑rev.
