So I've had my PC for about 4 years and I'm planning on upgrading in near future. I wanna try and play with OC/Undervolting and all but I'm totally new and clueless about this. I've got R5 1600 | 580 Sapphire Nitro+ (Enabled BIOS mode if that makes some difference)

I realize every card is a bit different so I'll have to test it a bit myself. As I said previously I'm not well versed in playing with OC/BIOS settings so I was hoping for some guidelines.

I have some changes from 4y ago when I bought the PC, basically copy-pasted someone else's settings while having 0 clue what I was doing (pretty stupid tbh). I have no problems to this day (None that I know off)

What should I research and maybe some starting values I should try and change.
