Here take a look at this link its a collection of the reviews done on the GTX 275 all with sections regarding overclocking results, I am using it to help give me an idea of how far to go while still keeping some peace and quiet.

I bumped my shaders up to 1620, its been folding for 2 days stable so far.

Sitting at 710/1620/1200, hoping to push 720 tommorow and get shaders yo 1250. if i can get those stable prolly gonna call it done

[Type-R Yo!]

What program do you guys use to check if the GPU overclock is stable or not?

Play with the fan setting tonight damn that stock fan is loud at 100%.

ATI Tool - Artifact Scanner (30 min pretty stable OC)
FurMark - Benchmark/Stress Test Tool
3D Mark (run a few loops)

those are a good start

[Sabis]

I run 3dmark. or just play games for hours on end after each step up and if it crashes or acts odd i dial it back

Sorry sweetie, I can't come down now, I am stress testing!

[Sabis]

YES! BTW, mem clock holding steady at 1225, hoping I can get my 1250!

Also, quick question because this is the first time OC'ed a card that didn't have well-established and known limits. What's the danger of OCing it too far (no volt mods)? Would it damage the card even if I make sure it stays under temp tolerance? I know it can crash and so forth, but wanna makre sure I don't hurt it.
