What sort of temps and fan speed with that OC ?
Click to expand...

My temps were 56 degrees C with fan speed set to 60% maximum, i play with headphones in games so i have not had any problem with fan noise and even without them my PSU and case fans are equal to the noise of the GPU so it's not "loud" as such to me. I can feel that i can go a bit more on this card but i don't want to push it so 1100/1300 or 1100/1400 is probably the highest i will try.

Unacceptable. Make it bleed!

One more bench at 1200/1500 and we'll call it a day. Agreed? :p

Good lad, however I have a feeling you might fold under questioning. :D
 
Ok .. i made it safely back but it wasn't a good test i went to 1135 on the graphics and 1350 on the mem and the heaven 4.0 bench+max everything) was glitching some textures and sun spots onto the screen... it's still alive but i think i need one of those MK26 mofo's on this thing any tips to squeeze a bit more with out the artifacting? I have set Power to +10% GPU to +15% and Mem to +4% giving me 1080/1300 that seems stable should i be giving more % to power when i'm upping GPU? do i match my GPU increase to the power increase? like if i wanted 20 % do up power to 20 too?

Nice score. What clocks and how are you finding it?
Click to expand...

1155mhz core clock.
havent touched ram speed at all.
did run 3dmark11 until no artfacts and that speed was free and played Bf4 without issues. need more voltage. cant understand how to do it with msi ab b17 as all I have is 100mv+.
Great card, runs my set up great, tried bf4 maxed out at my resolution and playable.

just thinking about what to cool it with, hybrid accelero with water or a block.

Is really loud at 60%?
