Cores tend to do 800MHz with added volts, but memory struggles above 3800MHz. This is according to a US retailer site which lists many owner reviews for this particular card. I don't think that I can link it, even though they do not ship to the UK.

It's not a company which delivers to the UK, therefore it can't really be a competitor to OcUK and take their business, like others which are UK based. I guess you mean Newegg?
Depends on the game/benchmark and settings but generally you are correct,

I'd like to know the length of one of these cards?
Got about 10 inches of room in my case, will it squeeze in?

could someone post the answers to
470GTX OC Core speeds
XXXMhz = 480 Performance
XXXMhz = 570 Performance
XXXMhz = 580 Performance (if even possible
)
Thanks!!

select what cards you want to compare and it will show you
Its a little variable, as the ratios between different sub-system performance differs a little from the 480, 570, etc. i.e. as you increase the clockspeed shader performance might increase beyond the 480 while pixel fillrate still lags behind, so which is faster would depend on what the game was heaviest in.
To absolutely match the stock GTX480 in every case you need ~830-840MHz on the 470, but this clock speed would be quite a bit faster in many cases at lower resolutions i.e 1680x.
~750MHz will match a stock GTX480 in many games at normal resolutions, moderate levels of AA but fall behind as you turn up the resolution/AA.
900MHz on the core would put you into stock GTX580 performance but you'd need 1.1v on the core and ideally uprated cooling over the reference design.

Fantastic deal on theese. Running dual gigabyte 470 oc's here, comfortably run 750 mhz on stock volts, ran them a few times at 800 mhz on 1.075, always been meaning to test how low i can get the voltage to go on them for 800.
