    I have a KFA2 GTX 970 EXOC Black Edition

    Just wondering if/how I could push it further.

    Last time I did overclocking was in 2004 on an ATi 9600! :pac:

    Grab MSI afterburner.

    You should be able to push it to 1500mhz+ if it's decent silicon. The memory is already heavily overclocked but you might get it a bit higher.

    There's plenty of guides online for it anyway. Let us know how you get on.

    Final result:
    KFA2 Geforce GTX 970 EXOC Black Edition

    GPU Clock: 1165 MHz => 1290 MHz (boost: 1442 MHz)
    VRAM: 1753 => 1953 MHz

    I think the VRAM can go higher, but no point.
    The GPU clock might go a bit more, but I get more artifacts than I'd like past +125
