Got my EVGA 980 today

Couple of Q's as I have been in the red camp a number of years: -
What are people using to overclock these cards?
Are there any firmware updates for these cards?

I am getting a little bit of coil whine too, any way of getting rid of it?

EVGA precision 16 is made for these cards for overclocking,also they enter you in a contest to win prizes.

Most people use MSI Afterburner for overclocking there card AMD/Nvidia.

Coil whine ,try running Valley/Heaven for an hr or two.It just may help.

Crikey these things shift some pixels compared to my old 670SLIs - really impressed with how they handle Tomb Raider in ultra @ 1440p absolutely eats it for breakfast :)

As a sidenote i've bought the pro SLI bridge from EVGA because it has LEDs in it.

I'm an idiot.

A happy one though :)
