I'm using the F5 bios, is it worth to upgrade to F9? or it probably will not help?
FWIW, I would try the newest BIOS.

My 940 really liked V's, 1.475 may not be enough. It was much more sensitive to temps and didn't get flakey until it got over 53c...

I take no responsibility, but if you keep Load Temps under 53c you can probably give it a little more juice. IIRC, my 940 was good to around 3.8 @ 1.55v under water...

Watch Temps, take your time and play with it...
Pretty sure you have a little more headroom if your willing to push a little.
