i want your opinions of how far can i push this card with the less danger because of the burnt VRMS as you know from the reference designs of GTX570

As a start im always looking for stable and daily use

So far as you can see i gave it a little overclcok without touch the voltage but i need more !!!

As for my temperatures on idle im at 50c and at games about 70c

[Kal-EL]

Are you gonna adjust the voltage at all or just run stock?

[Spank]

I would like to go with stocks as much as it can possible go and achieve stable.
Then i will adjust the voltage a little to push it more

You'll see a drop off in score as you bump the vga clocks incrementally, then you'll start getting lockups and bench failures as you go beyond that. At the score drop off point and failures you'll need to incresae vgpu.

At stock voltages, you shouldnt be in danger of overheating at all unless you live in Mogadishu. (long as fans are 100%.

That being said, its up to your gpu to decide what the highest clockspeed it wants to do at your givin ambient temperatures. If you forcefeed some cold air conditioner air into the gpu you'll get cold scaling beyond your sticking point without voltage increase but not much.

If this is strictly for gaming 24/7 purposes then you'll probably best off just keeping the clocks in the safe zone. Kinda like wearing ganny panties

I have set it now at 850/1700/2000 with 1.063 voltage.I will keep it like that for a while see how it goes if its stable and work on it to push it a little more

[ReverendMaynard]

She's hot at 70C load spank, you're going to have an extremely small return on voltage increases.

[Spank]

To be honest i havent seen any big increse of the performarnce with those clocks at 850/1700/2000 and 1.063.
I dont know if its my idea or not but with 802/1604/1999 and without voltage was better. I will try more tests and will decide,but its pity i cant go higher because of the $@#$ reference gtx570 and the crap VRMS

[Kal-EL]

You'd be cpu bottlenecked anyways and probably why scores dont scale, even 5more mhz from your cpu and it'd scale a few hundred points. I wouldnt sweat it cuz it'll game/run just about anything u want.

[Spank]

Yes idd i havent thought of the cpu bottlenecked.
Ok then i will make a profile with stock voltage for daily use gaming etc and another one with more overclock of the gpu and a profile in r2e at 4.4 or 4.5ghz for benches

Thats not too bad, mine will do about 825 with stock voltage, 920 @ 1.1, and I think somewhere close to 950 with 1.15. I generally just let it hum along at 1.1v, since its not in a case it loads at about 60-65.
