To get on the Roll of Honour all you have to do is post a pic with your user name on it of your 980 Ti.​
 
Haha. Caved! Let me know what clock speeds to get out of it (if just using air cooling)

I have noticed that my results are around the same for 1500mhz even though my card boosts to 1455 tops. Maybe the ones boosting to 1500mhz do not stay at that constantly or throttle.
Check te memory on your to (samsung / hynix) and asic quality. Samsung, 73% with mine

Would Samsung be the better RAM in this case? Depending on which Hynix line they use, of course.

asic? What does it do? Why is the number important?
 
asic? What does it do? Why is the number important?

I think it's very misunderstood and misused - either that or I misunderstood the whole thing lol

From what I can make of it

Most GTX 980 Ti's will overclock to roughly the same core clock but what makes a difference is the ASIC in how they get there.

Cards with lower ASICs need extra voltage to get above 1500mhz on the core.

Cards with very high ASICs don't need any extra volts to get above 1500mhz. This is not as good as it sounds as they also don't like or respond well to extra volts.

I have a couple of GTX 980 Ti's with 82.7 and 82.3 ASICs, they are monster overclockers on stock volts but can not take any extra volts without crashing.
 
Reference cooler? Prepare thyself for the heat and throttling :p :D

Don't answer now, wait til tomorrow or Saturday....;)

I know you said to wait to answer, but yeah reference cooler again as I plan to put them under water in a few months.

On my board, I can split the cards up a bit so they aren't as close together.

I will report back with that tomorrow though :P
 
Well if they're under water in time for the warm months then that'd def be good! In the meantime try and get a side fan to feed the top card (like I have currently) or a fan to feed in the front directly in between them (like I did with my 980's). Only helps a little with the temps, but I found that they throttled MUCH less (which helps with overall performance as you'd guess).

Without it I found that my cards throttled down to the 1250-1280 area purely down to the top card heating up so much, but with the side fan I go anywhere between 1420-1500 even though the temp is still at 91c ish :)

I was considering doing that anyway as I have several places to mount additional fans. Will be messing about with it tomorrow night anyway till im happy with it for the time being. :)

The last SLI setup I had were 770's and I did just what you mentioned, additional fan going between the two cards - made a good difference with throttling
