Gigabyte GTX480 SOC - stability at stock

[Buckster]

please post on here if you have a GTX480 SOC - andwhether its stable at stock speeds or not- please post even if stable as often people complain when items are fault and less so when all AOK, therefore it can often give on forums a more pessimistic view than reality. Purpose is to try and minimise number of RMAs if its not actually the cards themselves at fault

please include the following info (as a few people on here are having issues, and it may not be the cards themselves- it could be peoples PSUs (although Gigabyte recommend 600W or above) - so want to see if there is a trend)

PLEASE ONLY POST ONCE - just with the details as below - discussion can happen on another thread

(1) Stock Volts (Afterburner will tell you)
(2) Bios version (GPU-Z will give you this info)
(3) OCCT stable ?
(4) Heaven stable ?
(5) If the above are unstable - and you've tried lowering the clocks, what clock speed does the card become stable ?
(6) PSU make and model (importantone this one)
(7) Mobo, CPU and any other details which may be of use

right mine for starters:

(1) Stock volts - 1.038V
(2) Bios version - 70.00.21.00.02
(3) OCCT - not stable at all - in ks of errors within seconds
(4) Heaven- artefacts (flashing textures, black flashes (horizontal and vertical) )
(5) Stable - if clocks dropped to 760 - then passes Heaven fine, and 15 mins of OCCT with no errors
(6) PSU - Tagan 700W - Dual Engine (was fine with a heavily overclocked 570)
(7) Mobo - Asus P5B Deluxe - Q6600 CPU, 6 gig RAM
