Got mine running happily at 1100/1350 at stock volts

I kinda wish the vrms didn't need airflow, I could run my fans ridiculously slow if my vrm's didn't heat up

Whats the max safe Aux Voltage recommended on these cards?

Unknown, but i think +100mv is safe as long as you stick to +100mv or less on the core on air. Under water +200mv will be fine. Lighting 290X on air would be the exception to this rule i suspect.

wat?

He's talking about the Accelero. It will definitely be able to keep the core cool enough for +200mv, not sure about the vrms though.

Yep, I've personally seen 120C VRMs with an accelero
