Yeah, but your statement was a little bit misleading. Every point is precious. ;)
[OT] I even have one more Elpida Hyper set. :D [/OT]

Would be a good idea to move the general GTX580 discussion over to the GTX580 oveclocking thread. This thread was about 1.025 VID cards overclocking investigation and its well and truly way off topic and I think best left alone now unless someone has more VID vs clocks related info.[/QUOTE]
agreed!
I have something strange, my ASUS GTX580 is clocked @900MHz and mem 4200MHz with 1.1000V and my GTX580 makes a whistling sound or a buuuuuuuuuuhhhhhh and a booooohhhhhhh real light when he does 3D rendering.
Temps are 61 degress celsius on 100% load (furmark, OCCT) and during ATItool when the cube is standing still to detect errors it makes a peeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep.
No crashes or what so ever but can somebody recall this or know this sound, is it the proc or the capacitors and is it dangerous?
I touched the VRM's and the are hot but not to hot to touch.
Cooler is a Shaman cooler and i used a long heatspreader for the VRM's of a GTX280/285 GPU.
edit: solved
This is what I've got so far at MAX voltage 1.1475

Man I was happy with 990 at 1.213v , yours is mad.
Guys, how to be sure that all the RAM chips are stable?
I am currently testing with CUDA GPU Memtest but it does test just about 1/3 of the memory size. Will it test always the "same" 512MB?
How to test all the 1536MB together?
Thanks, goodbye.
1ghz on the core is not "usefull" ..... are u lc your vga?
if u are on stock cooling, i suggest you to lower that voltage.
this is what i get, not so far from you, 985<989mhz http://3dmark.com/3dm11/959068
not bad. but i do not like running my gpu with full voltage. i get the same speed with less voltage.
Are you sure the reference PCB VRMs can handle 1.2V? I thought 1.15V was max for those. That's what EVGA's Fan Unlocker bios opened them up to.
DCII's 10 VRMs should be able to handle 1.2V though.
MSI's 580 Lightnings 12 GPU VRMs can handle 1.3V with their TFIII air cooler.

I noticed that your driver is different from mine, 8.17.12.6760 NOT FM Approved. The difference between our scores is way to high to attribute to 4MHz
As of now my card is stock cooled, I'm not running the card at these settings 24/7, its just for the benches.
Is 1.1475V really dangerous?
well at the same time i do not really think that the difference between our scores is only because i'm using 267.60 drivers, it doesn't make sense!
1.1475 ? i personally don't even use that voltage for my 580 water cooled at 990mhz, the max voltage for my 580 is 1.150, as i said , i did not tried even once.. so i suggest to use that voltage carefully..
well can you do a ride of 3dm11 with 267.60 drivers with the same speed to see if something changes? (my rig is offline, so i can't bench to proof this drivers question)
Finally found the driver and as expected my score is on par, I even OC'd a bit more to match the Core speeds.

While p3gaz_001 has an overall higher score if we look at just the GPU scores mine is 7297 Vs p3gaz_001 7302 well within reason.
:D oh so is the driver!!!! btw i did never reach that speed on stock cooling... are u maaad! :) lol
i'll tell you when my rig is working. i can't use my desktop... i've got problems with hdmi connection.
first off.. this thread is not just about 1.025vid or just about different vids or just about oc clocks or just about cooling or just about benchmarks or just about mods or just about games.. it contains all of the above and then some
if you guys dont like my thread or if you dont agree with me or the title of the thread.. start your own thread/s.. no problem.. fyi the 950/2300 in the title is avg not max
second off.. you guys are welcome to post anything gtx580 related here i got no problem with the wide variety posted thus far
third off.. heres pix of assassins creed brotherhood after renaming ACBSP.exe to metro2033.exe no stuttering at all just beautiful silky smooth play
one of very few games i am enjoying

So basically its the VRM that limiting the max voltages and not really the GPU frying.. how much can the GTX580 really take assumed it has like 24phase power on aircooling.. maybe 1.5v ?
Napalm just wanted to keep discussion here on topic which was about VID vs clocks. Kinda obscure thread title for a general OC thread too so I made one specifically for general GTX580 discussion.
is not what i've asked..... i'd liked to know for wich purpose he renamed the assassins creed exe with metro.
