And i have make run mine 5870's with 1.4V+ ( MSIA mod ) for hours under water for bench.... and it's far of the highest i have use...
anyway.
Here's the word of MSI in their features description of the GTX590 ..
Overvoltage Function of GPU
- Support overvoltage function of GPU to boost 38% performance up.
- GPU clock is overclocked from 607 MHz to 840 MHz.
All Solid Capacitor
- 10 years ultra long lifetime (under full load).
- Lower temperature and higher efficiency.
- Aluminum core without explosion.
MSI Afterburner overclocking utility
- Support Over Voltage function of GPU.
- Support advanced fan speed control.
- Support burn-in stability test
We are ok, overclocking is overclocking too much voltage is too much, but please. going from 0.9x to 1.05V and got some pieces who burn, is absolutely not normal... We have for most here OC our gpu's beyond the limit, it's really rarefull you get something like that, in general, you OC too much with tooo much temps, and a deffective Ram chips die....
I don't mean there's a global problem, maybe a deffective parts on some cards, it's not the first time we see something like that... But if i understand well some 570 have got the same problem, if this is right, why the hell use some parts who are subject of it on the high end cards, and specially a card like that.
