My 680 is a DC II OC version, but it's flashed with a TOP BIOS. So the default clock is 1137 MHz with boost of 1202 MHz, just like on the box. In game though, it actually boosts to 1280 and doesn't even blink. Hit's 1350 MHz (+70 offset) at stock voltage. I think this card is great.

They literally set an overclock limit..and you can't pass it..period.
On one card I had..I think it was 960 Mhz..You get some kinda pixelated square in the middle of your screen
Just because YOU had bad experiences with a/an Asus card(s), doesn't mean it is fact. Stop posting like these are "known" issues lol, seriously. You sound mad, bro.
