Any ideas?
A lot of people are having success using the Asus bios and Voltage Tweak for getting 1300+.

Its quite common that you cant push both as high as they go together.. I dont think its a power limit... but it is quite common. That said, try the Asus bios and voltage tweak like erocker mentioned above.

That's always been the case with video cards to my knowledge. Yes, you can push the core to "X" and the ram to "Y" and have each one stable by themselves, but if you try to set both at the same time it's no longer stable.

Finally got my koolance block in today and was able to reach a higher overclock. I was able to hit 1300 Mhz on the core with 1.25 V. My last card with was a msi 6970 gave me all kinds of fits with cold temps but I have had my 7970 as low as 3C at idle!!!

Here are my details:

Repsol23|MSI 7970|1300/1375|10778|i5 2500k @ 4.7 GHz

I was able to increase my overclock on my 7970 on both my core and memory. I have an updated score to post for my last run thru 3DMark11.

Repsol23|MSI 7970|1350/1775|11549|i5 2500k @ 4.9 GHz

I upped my voltage on my cpu core and was able to hit 4.9 Ghz w/ 1.380V, my gpu was increased to 1350/1775 with 1.262/1.649 volts on core/mem respectively.

That is a decent score for your card and cpu combo.
