    Hi Guys,
    ok first of all I am a real Noob even at 74 but still willing to learn. I have the above card installed and I also have 16 GB Ram. I was aware this card could be overclocked and downloaded the program " GPU-Z. The only thing is I am just not sure exactly what to increase and to do it safely. Any chance some one could give me a step by step simple instruction on how to do this. If it is too much trouble, just say so and I will understand, ok
    All the best.

    GPU-z is a monitoring / info program, not overclocking, as above video shows, MSI Afterburner is for Overclocking the GPU

    Well, we all have to start somewhere.

    In any case, GT 1030 isn't really a gaming card, so you won't see a big performance boost from overclocking it. Also, keep an eye on the temperatures.

    If they go into late 70's / 80's, wouldn't push it much further.
