Prime95 on 4.4ghz sits around 41/42 degrees. Loving the new cooler!

I am glad everything has gone well!

Your temps seem great!

Look for an overclocking guide for 660's as they have a power limit they refuse to exceed. Once exceeding it they clock down, same as all kepler cards which can seem like a crash.

Also take a read of this http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/showthread.php?284014-KGB-Kepler-BIOS-Editor-Unlocker
 
I was unsure of how to use this benchmark so I sat there for 20 mins waiting for it to complete....

I didnt know I had to click benchmark lol

Anyway,



Odd that is says I have a dual core yet on snips BD it shows a 6 core, and its showing me as having one GPU? odd, maybe its a Windows 8 thing...

Redoing bench now to see if it reports right..

I cannot believe I was so against this cooler. It does look like a bit of an eye sore on the OcUK website, but when you actually handle it, it's amazing.

42 underload and 26-28 idle. I think it could be lower if the TIM was of better quality but I'm happy. Ran Prime95 for 30 mins on 4.4 and got the above temps, well happy with that.

Also on BF3 for a few hours, temps lower than bench, obviously, and no stability issues. Will look at clocking higher depending how the week goes. Ambient case temp is 20-23.

Thanks Oli. Not sure why the cards didnt want to o/c as overclocking the singe 660 worked fine when I tried it a few months back, this time, it's refusing to hit the same speeds. The power limit was set in MSI Afterburner @ 110, or you referring to the actual draw?

Thanks for the guide, will take a read and see where it goes.

The power limit, 110 helps, but these cards could OC a lot better if they had a higher limit. If they crash it could mean they now need more voltage as they are in SLI, mine did.
 
Odd, no matter what I do, my second GPU will not clock up in Heaven, it stays in 2D mode. Heaven then reports me having one GPU.

I jump in to Battlefield 3 and 2nd GPU goes straight to 3D Clock. Same with all my other games.

Heaven also reports my CPU as a dual core (I know it has 2 modules, 4 cores) yet reports Snips86x as a Hex.

Is Windows 8 Pro supported by Heaven?
