i would suggest putting some money into better cooling before running your graphics above 78 celsius....that's not meltdown hot, but it is definetly going to reduce the life of that card

If you switch off VPU recover then you will probably hang at those speeds eventually, I have VPU recover off and whenever I overclock with ATITool (max core) my computer just hangs/reboots once the card becomes unstable.
