What brand GPU? I know Asus with their OC models have some software called GPU tweak.

Years ago there was software called 'Afterburner' that did this sort of thing. I think it was purchased by MSI, but might still work on other brands GPU's.

Edit: Found it, still seems current

Afterburner is great once you tweak the settings. Was running it with my video card, kept it a lot cooler (altho a bit more fan noise) during newer games :)

More fan noise is tolerable if you are just a gamer rather than a streamer. There nothing worse than fan noise in the background of your content.
