To answer all of the above, cards perform perfectly at stock speeds.

I have tested with both cards separately, to test for a card issue, or PSU issue.

If I run no CPU/RAM OC, I can push the cards until they quit and they perform like beasts.

I have flashed the mobo bios, which improved a couple things, I have cleared and reinstalled drivers.

Must also mention that this was on a fresh install of windows, newest mobo and GPU drivers.

The only questions I have is the Corsair HX1000 is rated at 13A input current.

If I am only running a 10A power cord, mine was missing from my brand new PSU, could this cause the PSU to drop power?

Gonna test in SLI to question the PSU as to this issue.

sounds like a config issue if its only when oc'd

I'm thinking it is def a config issue, or the fact that my ram does not want to run at the rated speeds.

I may contact Corsair and see what they have to say.

Unless the grand master punx can help me getting some settings locked down.

Well I think I may have a PSU issue.

THe power cord leading to my PSU, which is rated at 10A the input power on the PSU is rated at 13A.

I just popped the second card in, after abotu 4 BSOD's trying to get into windows, most with the IRQ_less than or equal to error, I also got a PFN_LIST_CORRUPT

Finally got in, enabled SLI, started 3D 06, 2 secs, then BSOD Nv disp, error.

GOnna stop at Radio Shack and pick up a properly rated PSU power cord, then test this whole theory again.

Meanwhile the PSU cord that runs to the wall (the one in question) was very warm to the touch, pretty sure the PSU was not able to get the power it needs, which could cause the GPU to be underpowered when I try and OC the CPU/RAM, causing a loss in performance, and with 2 cards in and NO CPU/RAM OC, while it would barely start, (hence leading me back to my power issue) when it did start it would barely run.

Will report back shortly.
