Running sli 470's with an i7 @4ghz with 2hdds, (adding a 3rd soon), blu ray drive, xonar dx pcie soundcard, fan controller and 8 fans, 6 on controller, 2 on a pwm splitter cable. The cards are ran daily at 751/1502/1684, had them at 800/1600/1700 for benchmarks. Ive got a power metre arriving soon as im curious to know what the total system use is.

Would be very interested in the results as your won't be very different from mine.
 
Greebo what volts you putting through your 470's when maxxed out. Have had my single 470 @ 795\1590 on stock volts, with a gelid icy vision, doesn't get above 52c running Heaven 2.1, wouldn't do 800 so I guess its needing more volts.:)

For 800 i set the voltage slider to max in afterburner, (1.087), theyd possibly run on lower but i havent really tried tbh, just had them at 800 for a few benchmarks. Stock voltage is 0.987 which i use for my daily 751mhz clocks.

Ok setter, thanks. My stock voltage on my Msi is 950 and as I said it goes up to 795 on that. You aware there is a program to unlock the max voltage to anything you want, yikes.:eek:
 
Thanks setter and skyrocket. Would love SLI 470 but current board supports CF. New board\ram \cpu summer next year but will be no 470, other than 2nd hand, by then. Think I've found my sweetspot to be honest but this Gelid cooler is so good I'm tempted to go for more.:)
