Hey.

I tried overclocking my GPU with msi afterburner, and let's just say that as soon as I changed the core clock, the pc shut itself off. I want to get the most out of my graphics card. But unfortunetely, I don't really know how to do so. Because there are probably some rules of howmuch you can adjust a certain graphics card so you wont ruin the thing.
I've got the MSI b150 gaming motherboard. It features its own overclocking page, but I'm not an expert in overclocking so I'm not sure what to change and what not to change. If anyone has the same graphics card, could you help me out if you overclocked it yourself?

Processor: I5 6600
Graphics card: GTX 1060 6GB MSI
MotherBoard: MSI B150 gaming

Thank you for your time.

Welcome to the Boards!
my first advice would be to go to the Video Cards & Graphics forum ;)
