680 SLI OC

Hello all,

I have a 680 sli setup and thought I would experiment with some OC. I've not really bothered too much as I know my processor is holding me back a little.

I've found that if I run Heaven with +100/+200 I would get one loop, but on a second loop straight after I get a driver crash.

To have it loop continually I need to have it aroun +50 on the core, I've not narrowed it down exactly to the point of failure.

This doesnt sound great, but out of interest im uping the power target to 132% in precision then just moving the core and memory sliders.

What I notice is that even playing BF3 at stock my GPUs like to hit over 70c and then the boost throttles down. This also happens in Heaven.

When people do these OCs of +100 on the core do people up the fan profile (if they are not on water?)

Any advice appreciated.

I'm going to try and run Heaven with just 1 card (disable SLI in NVCP), and see what happens. I guess to test the other card i'll have to physically switch the cards round which I'll do at the weekend.
