    IDK if this is good or not, but I pushed an EVGA 3090 Ultra to +125 Core clock and +400 memory clock with this method, ending with a score of 9650 on Time Spy Extreme. I noticed core clock tended to have a bump where after a point the score started falling, while core clock going too high is what led to outright crashes (cpu is a Ryzen 9 5950X). I'd ideally get my 3090 to the rough area of a 4070 ti so I could hold out for the 5K series and whatever world-ending event inevitably makes them rarer than a skinny reddit mod is over enough to make them available for less than 3 month's rent, then just upgrade my entire PC with a MB that slots whatever CPU is best at the time Intel fanboys seem to rule the benchmark sites so it's hard to tell sometimes (seriously they put entire paragraphs in the cpu descriptions dedicated to ranting about how they got kicked off of reddit for starting arguments).

      Go to setting and enable " user-defined software automatic fan control.” or if you dont see that, check the box that says "enable hardware control and monitoring." If that doesn't work, might sound silly, but make sure its reading the gpu you're using NOT the integrated one. Sometimes everything is greyed out because its reading the integrated gpu not your ACTUAL gpu. You can find it on the bottom to the right of the checkmark. IF this doesnt work, uninstall and install it again.

    MSI Afterburner doesn't OC my card. The changes don't reflect in the OSD while playing games. Maybe b'cos it's a quadro card. So I use EVGA Precision. I find it odd that Nvidia doesn't give any kind of generic guide to overclock their cards. I don't go above +1000Mhz on memory & +131Mhz on core. This is b'cos although I can overclock the core to +135Mhz (max), the clock never exceeds +131Mhz while gaming. So just set the core/memory to the exact value it defaults to. In Assetto Corsa, my average FPS jumped from ~39 to ~52 at 1080p. About 34% fps boost. So it's definitely worth it for me.
