MSI Afterburner allows you to add a tiny bit of voltage...

How many MHz can an extra 100mV push out?

seems like before I noticed the voltage adjustment I was only allowed 1200mhz, anything further and my drivers crash or game freeze...

Now its letting me get 1215Mhz pretty constant how much further could i push it?

None. You can change the voltage setting in Afterburner, but it won't actually do anything on Kepler chips unless it's a Lightning card (which AFAIK is the only card with software unlocked voltage).

No problem. I'm still hoping for some magical driver update that will unlock voltage on all chips, but unfortunately I don't see it happening. nVidia is playing it safe this generation.
