If someone could give some input that would be greatly appreciated. Is there anything wrong with this PNY GTX570? I was thinking about picking up two of them instead of one GTX580. I normally ALWAYS and only buy Evga, but want to save some money, so should I go against my norm?

Didn't want to make a new thread just for this.

i tried zotac, pny...both are still reference..thats a steal right thur

[zeropluszero]

what are the highest vGPU people are pushing here?
mines a reference EVGA card, under a Koolance waterblock, will benchmark at 940-950/2200 at 1.1v (highest it would go at stock).
i've now modded the bios and flashed it to the card, and it will go up to 1.213v, successfully ran a couple of 3dMark11 runs last night at 1000/2200. No issues, but i did hear the card make a whining noise. i assumed this is what people refer to as "coil whine"
was wondering, since the card is underwater, how worried should i be regarding the noise my card is making? im only running the high vGPU for benching, not 24/7 use.

highest score so far is a shade over P7100, with a 4.5GHZ i7 920. beat that guys

gtx 570@970mhz core with stock cooler
This is my best score at 3dmark11 for now!

PNY are ok assuming you don't mind the fact their warrenty isn't usually worth the paper its printed on.

Anyone have any recs about the msi gtx 570 super frozr III? http://www.msi.com/product/vga/N570G...#?div=Overview

Looks like a better build with 6x Vreg, better grade caps, quieter and decent air cooling, stocks at 770/1280/2000. Its also more $$. My purpose is 3D gaming with the ability to improve the system with time, eg start with one card and go to SLI when have the $$ so I'd like to have 2 matched ponies that will OC in step. Have the watercooling if needed but was considering air for gpu's. Any thoughts, experiences, words of wisdom??

I need some advice for overclocking my 570. How much I can raise the voltage on the gpu and for testing stability are games like BF3 best? Afterburner says that the stock voltage is 1.0v (800/2000MHz clocks).

Dude please don't spread misinformation. Their warranty is just fine, obviously if you want EVGA style warranty then I suggest that is the brand to go with. Just a quick fact for you - PNY is the ONLY manufacturer for nvidia for their Quadra cards. I think that says something.

I have been running 1.1V on my reference EVGA for months now with 900 core and 4500 mem(1125 or 2250, however you want to read it).

1.0 for 800mhz is quite low, if your stable at this V, you have a good GPU

@stock, one of my Asus was .980 and the other was 1.025... Currently running my SLI at 800 with ~.1050.

I have a EVGA GTX 570 Classified and i need in BF3 1.070 for stable runing with 850Mhz

The stock clocks are 800MHz for the core with 1.0v.
