GPU OC Artefacting, but temps fine

OK so I know it's a beta, but I've experienced it in other games in the past. If I try to OC my GPUs beyond 640 ish, they artefact in BF3. I get white/light blue frame flicking on the screen every few seconds.

One card is 55nm, the other 65nm but temps don't really go about 65C ish.

Is it just luck of the draw? I have tried several different drivers and games over the years I've had the cards and fiddled with clock settings.

At standard 600 core and up to about 640 they're fine; it's if I try to push it further I run into issues.
 
Have you tried decoupling the shaders from core. It could the shaders are being pushed beyond their limits or visa versa, and is letting you down when pushed hard.
