Overclocking GTX465 with MSI Afterburner - Need some advice

[Skipcast]

I've google'd around for the max safe voltage i can set for my Asus ENGTX465.

Most people say afterburner's max value for voltage is the max safe value you can use without any danger. Is this true?

[B]Stock settings for my card is:[/B]
Core: 607 MHz
Shader: 1215 MHz
Memory: 1603 MHz
Voltage: 1.025v

[B]What i want to reach:[/B]
Core: >= 800 MHz
Shader: >= 1600 MHz
Memory: Not sure, not really prioritized

[I]Afterburner's max value is set to 1.087v.[/I] [URL="http://www.overclock.net/t/897883/gtx-465-overclocked-afterburner"]This guy with the same card set his voltage to the same as my max value is[/URL]. I thought i'd mention that.

I only have stock cooling, but if i get this to work, i might buy [URL="http://www.zalman.com/eng/product/Product_Read.asp?idx=407"]one of these[/URL]. Same cooling as the guy in the link above.

I tried setting the voltage to afterburner's max value, and it worked. Right now i have the settings i was trying to get, and it's running stable at 78c after 30 minutes in Kombustor. I'm pretty happy with it, so i guess this thread has no purpose anymore.

I will probably buy the cooler above.

My 460 is at 845/1690/2000 core/shader/memory. You should be able to get yours that high as iirc the 465 is just a higher binned 460. You don't need that cooler either. The reference cooler is fine.
