1250 is considered a semi decent overclock. I have seen cards smash past 1350 and others not reach 1150. Chip lottery at its finest.
Just for the record and not to **** you off but both my cards do 1400+Mhz (sorry, I had to slip that in

About 440volts in the case above

Thanks and **** you at the same time haha
My cards are already FTW versions, but both have different clocks when OC'd to the same amount. Weird.
The Kepler cards boost to different frequencies out the box.
Also they're voltage locked (apart from a couple of specialist models) so what you get on stock volts is your lot unless you want to flash a new bios onto it which gives you a teeny bit more voltage. Not much though (1.175 to 1.21)
Just looking at the specs for your cards
Core Clock: 1084 MHz
Boost Clock: 1150 MHz
If you are getting 1250MHz thats not a bad o/c
Remember those are 4GBs cards which makes ocing the memory a little bit harder.
With SLI make sure you have your best card for oc clock speeds in the top slot. This will help carry the weaker card in the lower slot.
lol and deserved comment
It would be the boost that makes them different. In AB, I know you can lock the Mhz the same for each card (which I do). The boost/Power target could be adding more to the card that will clock better.
For gaming, I use 1368Mhz (+166) on the core and +450 on the memory (can't remember what that is effective). Power target set to 300% and +93Mv on the volts. This is the same for both cards and according to AB 2.2.3, they both run the same in all games/testing I have done.
I could find what each card can do and set them seperately but I am lazy and happy with the clocks I use for 24/7 gaming.
You could flash the BIOS to allow +100Mv and people have reported another 50Mhz on the clocks but this will increase your temps and I wouldn't bother. For benching, it could be worth a punt but drop it back to your original BIOS after.

Hi,
did you already try to only overclock the GPU without overclocking the RAM if this make any differenze?

Does the slot you would put a single card in make that much of a difference to overclocks? I have a single 680 in the lower of my mobo's two 16x pice slots, mainly for ease of water cooling. It is a pretty bad clocking card I can only get +60 on the core, but would putting in the top slot make a difference? I thought that since both slots were 16x that they should peform the same. Is only relevant with SLI?
It will make a difference as the top card seems to work harder than the bottom card. I wouldn't think it would be noticable though and only helps with benchmarking.
