That EVGA card only allows +37mv and clocks changing between 1430 and 1410 is hardly throttling. The hour I played on BF4 with my MSI the GPU clock stayed at 1506 MHz consistently. I'm going to see if 1600mhz is game stable as its bench stable. Will report back if it throttles.

What's the rest of your specs?
User review below, big overclock and silent fans, the giga is good.
Check his OC out, 1674 core at 64c

Thanks
I think my mind is made up now!
Pretty sure it's the ASUS Strix, followed by the Gigabyte G1
Most of them with the higher stock boost clocks allow +87mv, the two Pelinox has linked, the MSI, and I imagine a couple of the others do as well.
Someone has found voltage tables up to 1.312v which is promising if an unlocked bios appears. I'd imagine you'll see 1800mhz+ clocks at that voltage under water.

Don't look at the boost value on the 1st tab of GPU-Z as that's wrong, I'd put the power limit at 110% and leave the voltage stock for now. Run a full screen game and check the 2nd tab on GPU-Z (Sensors) and see what it boosts too. That way you can tell how much you need to add on the slider in afterburner.
Thanks. Is +235 about right? I don't quite understand the memory clock though. How do I find the correct reading for that? People are saying they have theirs at 8000 MHz but GPU-Z is reporting 1753 MHz at stock. Do I have to multiply that by something to get the correct value?
Hi guys, just playing with my new Gigabyte Windforce 970 and 4790K which arrived yesterday
Just got 11271 on Firestrike with stock volts and a mild 100mhz overclock on core and mem.

What is quite incredible though is the fact it didn't go over 58 degrees....!
The best I got out of my 290 was 10500 and temp was in the 90's
I feel I have only just scratched the surface...

Yeah multiply by 4 as the GPU mem runs at Quad Data Rate (QDR)
+235 will be making it boost close to 1600mhz.
Memory clock you times by 4, so you need 2000mhz for 8000mhz effective.
Oh yeah, oops. I have core +160, memory +500. Does that seem right?
