    Any specific need?
    Without having prior idea, overclocking graphics card is very dangerous.

    Use MSI Afterburner with care.

    use sapphire Trixx software and without touching the voltage increase the core clock by 10 Mhz each time - check with games and see how far you can go without games crashing or system getting unstable.

    Same goes for memory too but for starting point you can start mem Oc from 1100 Mhz.

    Why the heck you want to Under clock a GFX? If you want to save energy / loose temp then Under VOLT.

    If You don't stress the card then it should run Cooler anyway. What are the temps you are getting in Idle?
