    i think 1.263 vGPU is as high as you can go through BIOS but i'm not sure. i'd love to be corrected by anyone who knows for sure.

    i'm not game stable with the default settings on the TOP BIOS. i've lowered the clocks on both my cards to 750/900 while i contemplate what to do next. i really don't like the idea of volt modding my cards because i know i'll end up selling them within a year.

    an update for those that are curious. i'm stable with the TOP BIOS if i force my fanspeed to 65%. i've confirmed that my problem is with my top card only and it's being caused by heat. my case has a 200mm side fan with a big center hub that lines up perfectly with my top card, so i think there is a dead spot there as far as airflow is concerned. i also have only a quarter inch of space between my two video cards due to my motherboard's layout.

    i might just get a pair of Acceleros and see if i can make them work for me.
