When I oc'ed I didn't use overdrive, I used msi afterburner. I would raise the power limit to 20% (usually the max), enable automatic fan control so it blows harder as it gets hotter, and add +50 to your gpu clock. Then run through benchmarks, stress test, whatever. When you feel good with that I would add 50 more and so on until it won't take it. Then do the same for memory clock. If you get to the point where it won't take 50, try 25 or smaller increments. Watch the tests to make sure you don't see artifacts, it won't always bsod.
