980 owners, what clocks are you getting for stable gameplay?

Ordered a 980 from OcUK to replace my ageing 690 that isn't cutting the mustard anymore in non SLI profiled games. It does 1163Mhz stable for 99% of games, and I don't touch the memory. That's +120 in Afterburner.

What sort of clocks can the 980 do stable? Some of the benches I've looked at show the 980 a couple of notches below the 690, but surely with an O/C on the GPU, it would jump infront?

I have 2 reference cards running at 1500mhz each(boost)and 8000mhz on memory with no added voltage so these cards really do rock.
I have a custom fan profile to keep them under 70c at load.Pretty good for an SLI overclock :)
 
2 inno3d x3 here. One will clock to the high 1500's but one will only just go over 1400 on stock voltage so running them both at 1418 on stock voltage
 
I have an EVGA 980 ACX 2.0 I got from trading in my 780 Classy.

Highest I benched so far was 1518/1928 with no issues.

Able to play BF4 for hours but will grey screen in RIFT so I been playing at 1425/1900 without issue so far.

I just recently got it so still working out where its stable gaming limits are.
