It seems that I can clock up to 750 on SC stock voltage (1.012), but anything higher I get artifacts in Kombuster and Heaven 2.0. Temps are in the mid 80's. I'm thinking of pushing the voltage a bit more and try for 800/1600. So, for those who have clocked to 800, what kind of vcore did it take to get you there?

lulz, sorry paul couldn't resist, there is always keeping it colder so it may clock farther.

It's all good. I can use a little ribbing. It keeps me humble.:laugh: I may change out the TIM this weekend, and see if doing so will give me a bit more play on the voltage.

I was able to reach 800/900/1600 w/out voltage when I had one card (EVGA GTX 470 basic model). Had to increase voltage to get above 800/1600.

Must be the GTX 480's. The GTX 470's seem fine with GPU-Z

is that the most out of stock volts?

Have you tried afterburner yet? there is a beta for the 480's there as well.

That is just during benching:)
While playing games there is no need to overclock one or especially two of these cards. I set the fan between 45 and 50%; can't hear it over the rest of my system(s).

It seems that I can clock up to 750 on SC stock voltage (1.012), but anything higher I get artifacts in Kombuster and Heaven 2.0. Temps are in the mid 80's. I'm thinking of pushing the voltage a bit more and try for 800/1600. So, for those who have clocked to 800, what kind of vcore did it take to get you there?



It's all good. I can use a little ribbing. It keeps me humble.:laugh: I may change out the TIM this weekend, and see if doing so will give me a bit more play on the voltage.

i use the stock SC voltage and can hit 850/1050/1700 probably higher have bother to try, its just luck if you get a good overclocker or not what bios are you running? i updated to the newer SC bios voltage mite be upped im not sure but my temps even running at 850 core never go over 74c
My voltage as shown below


Can you please post that again with a new link? 70.00.21.00.82 Thanks!

Sorry man i changed a few things around heres a new link to dates and versions over at evga that i started up
