Seems I have my twin 980s sitting pretty at 1501mhz at around 40c.

Now, I wanna know. Should I start up'ing memory and at those temps is it wise to fool around with the voltage for the card? If I hit a wall with memory rise voltage?
 
Well no one replied, I got

1501/2001mhz clocks.

Ran heaven stable but went into a game and it derped quickly, I've increased core voltage by 10+ and it seems stable now. Are there any warnings at running it by 10+? Or is it safe so long as temps are down?
 
Sorry bud, Yer up the memory and see what gains that gives. It can make a few frames difference (game dependent). If you see block triangles, that is too far and back off a bit.

The best stability test is gaming and so long as your temps are good, +10mhz will not harm the card at all :)
 
Temps are around 44c on both my cards.

Am on 6th place on the heaven benchmarks and am very happy. The +10mhz seems to hold the card stable.

As for overclocking evenmore.... 1501 core and 8002mhz memory is insane, I think I ought to stop :P
