Right guys so am getting like 60 c running now kombustor for 15 minutes here is the screenshot with the OC system http://img534.imageshack.us/img534/5397/captureta.png
I thought i'd try and improve the temperatures I was getting with the MK-13's, I also took on board what what someone had pointed out, namely that the bottom card was bending. I replaced the standard heatsinks with some enzotech forged copper ones, used OCZ Freeze for the TIM and lastly changed the fans to 140mm Noiseblocker PK3s (1700rpm).

Before, load.

New setup temps.
Idle.

Load after 15mins of combuster.

Definitely not silent anymore but still quieter than stock cooling at load and a drop of 25c load, i'm very happy.
cards bend all the time from heat sinks, it's really not a big deal
Hi guys
Here is Extreme version of MSI afterburner 1.6.0 beta6 with fermi support and voltage to 1.5V

and here is proof and max possible settings :)

Enjoy :D
Can you guys link me what tools to use for my 480 testing (have not done much gpu over-clocking in a while - used to use ATI tool to OC)?
I don't see any proof, just a screen shot of current settings; I can set my E8500 to 5ghz, doesn't mean it will stable.
FurMark, MSI Kombustor, and for DX11 Unigine Heaven Benchmark
Why are you like that?! :down: Guy just gave us a WORKING Afterburner 1.6.0.X beta 6. I tried it. If you didn't, that is your problem.

My new gtx470. Temps are not problem. 66% fan profile ,temps are in low 70 in game without noise.
720mhz gpu on stock voltage but memory oc is very bad.This card is great for people that are ugrading from gtx260 etc.,but i you have radeon 58xx stick to it,especially if you playing BF2.
Max oc on 1.087 is 860mhz.
i would not use any higher then 1.20v without other mods and a ln2/dice pot....just thuoght i say it thats all.
it works np led :)
I was under the impression he was saying that was his OC based solely on his Afterburner Screen.
1.5V is sure high as hell compared to 200 Series, I know the die is bigger but the voltage limit on the volterra 200 Series is 1.188 (by software). Seems like they are allowing a huge potential for hardware damage.
If the limit was only 1.18V, 1.5V wouldn't even be possible by "software" but it is apparently and GT200 cards are different. It's like comparing 45nm on AMD at 4.0Ghz and 1.5V and Intel at 1.28v.
Smolka, i can bench at 1.21V on water my temps hover in 50's so i don't see how 1.08V on air @ 90C+ could be any less dangerous than 1.2V and 50C. Voltage isn't dangerous at all unless you pair it with high operating temps.
btw, i've just tried 1.4V and 960Mhz, instant crash. Poo colored screen like on the ATi cards.
well actually there is a cracked version of the voltage tuner for the 200 Series that allows any voltage, just not covered under any warranty (like eVGA's Voltage Tuner is)
ur funny man... heaven and other s h i t(furmark,kombustor) can run hours on hardest settings without any crash but in a real game u will crash after minutes... heaven LOL..
super safe oc - occt tool -> gpu test - 10min without a fault is rock stable
normal safe oc - TPU gputool ctp1 -> stability test - 10min without a fault is normally rock stable
gamestable oc -> TPU gputool ctp1 -> stab test
-> just hold down the errors until clusterblobs (for my personal choice i would avoid getting more than 1000 err/sec (cluster blobs included) for stable gaming)
ram has to be super stable, so dont wank around with gpu clocks without being sure that ur ram is "ok" :)
dont be disappointed if ur "oh wow im so cool with mega overclock" setting in reality produces endless errors (u can use furmark in background to push the card faster to an "oc test ready" status and punish the mcu a bit more)
Yeah i'm not a big fan of Furmark either. It's a totally useless pile of junk that can kill your card in minutes by putting enourmous stress on your clocked and overvolted card while not really testing gaming 3D benching stability. CS:S is a much better stability tester than this POS.
best way is occt then ati tool since ati tool found what furmark thought was on to be bad
all so just broke 21k in vantage http://service.futuremark.com/compare?3dmv=2185416
i wanna prevent XS from getting noob crushed... Years ago XS was top notch!!
im not english, so my voc is ok, its enough for hardwarenoobtalk. dont feel pissed love.
