Why is my 480 showing like this in GPU-Z?

[Flare]

It's the Asus GTX 480

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Flare.

I'm sure i upgraded it....

Nice overclock .

I think you'd be playing Metro and Crysis very well with a core clock like that with 16xAA .

Why thank you I'm still in the process of OCing, i doubt i will be able to get the core higher then about 840MHz, when i'm done with that i'll up the memory. I am still using stock voltages because i don't know what upping the voltage achieves

The Crysis demo looks awesome, i need to buy some more demanding games though!

Thanks a lot for that
I did think that was the case but i wasn't sure. I'm not really tring to reach a specific clock, i'm just taking it as high as i can. I'm a bit wary when it comes to upping the voltage though, do i have anything to worry about if i don't go to extremes?

Thanks a lot for that info I think i will just leave voltages for now and just concentrate on the OC i can get at the factory voltages. I've set up a user defined fan speeds:
Up to 49C the fan is at 34%
up to 70C the fan steadily rises to 50%
up to 90C the fan goes up to 90%

Good to know.

Oddly, the more i seem to OC the lower the idle temps get? Core speed : 831MHz Shader: 1662MHz with fan at 34% (1710rpm) is giving me an idle temp of 35c!

 

[Flare]

I know! I've now dropped the idle fan speed to 30%, it's now idling at 41C.
Do i have a golden 480?

Since closing my window my idle speed has gone all the way up to 42C
