GTX 680 OC - Result-Thread --- Post your results here

Even at -30c i had trouble with 1420 at only 1.21v,out of 4 i had 1 went 1385 for just a bench or two but 1340 was ok for games.

I played some vantage last week testing that tweek was ok

DCII's @1.40ish H70 cooled / 3930k H100 cooled close window added 40c air into the mix
Was good for 1437 in sli max temps 59c


single card i pushed to 1.45v good for 1475



Have a card and RIVE mounted for dice but i cant get any this weekend..
I hope i can hit 50k single next time

hahha cowie you always hitting hard on VGA
grats on that clocks

i can flash mines to get 1400 but too scared to ruin such amazing and no more cards, are beastly binned

i used a multimeter on the factory measure points and at 1,2 they do 1300 / 7600 for gamming so i wonder what they can do with 1,25...

Mine does 1385mhz / 7800mhz for benching, gaming depends, but works best at 1300mhz / 7800mhz with 1.21v
I'm considering selling my ftw locally and grabbing a dcuII just for fun now lol

yeah mate but u have another card not 680 right ?

(I'm rocking a 670 ftw btw)

this is 680 thread

Going to pick up my MSI Lightning 680 now, ordered an Aqua computer full cover block and it's on it's way You're bad influences, all of you!

Will do some air testing first, then when the block arrives will see how it goes under water. I know it wasn't 'needed' but I like low temps are reliability so it will do what I want it to.

I know but it's almost the same card, it even has a ref 680 pcb...

Sergio - what vgpu are you at for 1293 MHz stable? What's average for ~1.175v? What about 1.21v? I'm still reading through thread

Mine is stock that core mem my friend i measure and loads 1,2 i can game at that as its stock it turbo boosts at 1288 @ 1,175 and using max power 1,2 1300 core

good choice no need water mate

Hmm ok, I was at 1228 mhz @ 1.175 then everything went to and my screen is filled with crazyness and I can't even see my windows login screen! Back to store for swap out I but tomorrows public holiday Have to wait another day.

dont worry i send u something to solve that

[CryptiK]

When it makes it into windows without artifacting like crazy it topped out at 1267 in games @ 1.21v

Really weak for a lightning IMO. Thought they binned these things.

[CryptiK]

Shxt core but good ram +900 game stable on +20mv (still on air) :/

You have two great clockers but alittle more voltage is more fun

You might have to flash an older ln2 bios if you card is voltage locked,you must also use ab 2.2.3 since others are of no use to add kepler voltage.
1.36ish should be avalible then.


Happy new benching year you guys

catzilla tiger setting 1500+ core

[CryptiK]

Yeah I was told to use v2.2.3 elsewhere and gave it a go, went over 1300 easy then but still not a great clocker, needs >1.30v for 1320+ core

That said, mem seems strong on this one. Did some testing with kombustor which seems to load mem harder than games, see below stable for over 20mins when I stopped it.

+855 mem (7720 MHz effective) at stock mem voltage. Core needs +18mv (1.25v real @ DMM) for 1254 stable

What's better higher clocking core or higher clocking mem? I though these cards were more mem bandwidth limited and core was less important in terms of actual performance.

Amazing mate use bf3 to test for stable if u get to play a 1000 ticket game and pass to the other its done

and if u can play at 1254 at +700 then u have a great card

[CryptiK]

Thanks but TBH I'm still kinda disappointed it doesn't have a great core 1254 gaming is a great card nah cmon there's guys here over 1300 on stock vcore!

Here's 3DM11 comparisons ~300 points difference in graphics score and overall score with mem OC vs all stock.

Stock



+855 mem

just add some cooling these cards dont start to go unless 1.35 and above,its not out of line to need 1.40+ to run into the 1400's for intensive gaming for hours.

1250.....Yeah thats not the best egg in the bunch but nothing alittle voltage could not fix

u think that 1,4 for 24/7 ?

i kinda scared to flash them with unlocked bios even mines a prepared on air till 1.3 but im scared either way

[Ivanlabrie]

1.4v for 24/7 using water doesn't sound too far fetched...I'd be curious to see how that works over time though.
You guys are all using Lightnings?

[CryptiK]

Think cowie has DCII and probably lighning, Sergio has Galaxy SOC, I'm using a lightning

Then i would not
your a gamer you have 680 sli you dont need more fps,plus most unlocked bios(not msi l)will only get you 1.24 .so will 1 more bump in clocks really help much? not really
Since i have quick disconnect i dont run voltage 24/7 i just take off vr after benches

Thanks cowie for your advice, i really dont know how much volts can KGB unlock on my cards, it would be nice if it does to 1,24 maybe i can get some 1350 core on air dunno

[CryptiK]

Haha just tested your SOC bios on my lightning, boosts to 1398 loooool instant crash. Expect 1.24v with unlocked BIOS and 1,2125v set

[andressergio]

Cryptik thanks i started learning VGA mod world with you years ago and NapalmV5 and i still learning thanks for your help

look

Sooooo close man haha keep at it you'll get that 20K
