I only raised vgpu, left memory at stock 1200

[Dentlord]

not looking very good, 1000 core is insta-fail up to 1.215v so far

Added

Now up to 1.25v still no love at all

[Dentlord]

Finally got it to pass Vantage @ 1000/1200, took 1.275v

Good gpu score though.

looks like your card is getting pretty toasty. I read that you need to washer mod the backside or the cooler will not contact properly. I noticed mine was pretty tippy

that is ridiculous man. A 500 bone card that needs a washer mod? Why didn't they just sell it with a kingpin pot attached?

Wonder if it's the PWM frequency MSI (aside from the jacked heatsink) set that makes these things hot at stock values? Like on the Classified m/b's, as you jack up the cpu and VTT core, you have to adjust the PWM frequency due to increase noise levels. If I leave my pwm frequency when running the board at lower speeds on air it get ridiculously hot.
