Ok thought I would start this thread as I have been ask quite a few question in other threads and I would be easier to have it all in here instead of derailing other threads.

Plus we can share overclocking and tweaking I will try to help as much as I can

List of sites to help with overclocking bios flashing all at your own risk might I add :p

I tried 80.04.09.00.F8 and 80.04.28.00.3A.

Both BIOSes gave me the same max clocks of around 1241 core / 7010 mem. Any higher on the core no matter what voltage I got artifacts / driver crash.

From what I have read up on 80.04.09.00.F8 is a hard crash ie reboot needed was as 80.04.28.00.3A is a driver crash.
So what volts did you go up to? have you unlocked then to go higher than 1.212v I think that's the max b4 unlocking

I left it at 1.212V. I tried higher but it didn't improve my max overclock.

80.04.09.00.F8 didn't crash for me ;)

Yes 100% sure, I took GPUZ screenshots after each flash.

How did you get MSI Afterburner to set the voltage above 1.2V with the 770 BIOS (MSI.GTX770.2048.130507)?

With that BIOS it won't go above 1.16V for me.

When I try to follow step 7 to flash the bios I get I\O Error: Can not open file: nvflash -4 -5 -6 680L_UnlockedBIOS.rom What am I missing? First time flashing a graphics card bios, So not sure I have done this right.
 
Done step 5 too....I will run again.

Edit: Done everything upto step 7 and still the same. Have I got to place the bios somewhere other than just C/? Do i need to be in LN2 mode?
