    Ran this on a machine at my work just for giggles. i7 3770K@3.5 Ghz (Stock Clock), SLI MSI GTX 650 Ti Boost (x2). Graphics cards both at stock 1098/3004

    Don't underestimate stability. You got the best results with the most stable clocks for both cards.

    ASUS GTX 670 Won't Stay at Core OC Clock Speeds

    I believe he was saying that he managed to get +99 stable with the old drivers. Personally, I've never manged to get more than +60 while gaming, less when benchmarking with Heaven. Either way, what you say seems about right, 1200 is the ball park value in my experience as well.

Now, I will toss out the question no one has asked yet: have you run Heaven 4.0 on max settings successfully without OCing? Just run it at stock settings and see if it's stable. Some Asus factory overclocked...

Furthermore, if you...

    Unigine Heaven 4.0 Benchmark Scores

    Hello, I've never posted on here before but I often read this site and I thought I'd join. =) EVGA GTX 670 FTW 2GB @1050/1840 - i7 3770K @ 4.5 GHz Not sure if those clocks should include boosts and OC values. Either way, I overclocked the GPU clock by another +44MHz and the memory by +575MHz...
