My advice is let it go or you will finish up with deleted posts again, maybe warnings leading to infractions.

If someone posts something you feel is rude and disrespectful, report, don't respond.

It has been deleted and you are still bringing it up. Enough said. Please move on and stop dwelling on it.

Has anyone else had a crash on stock clocks? Most importantly if so....what BIOS did it happen on?

dph314, The issue I have doesn't have to be related to every Ln2 bios. It's just that mine has a memory leak and cant play games that hit the 2gig memory mark because the buffer doesn't flush and go back to 1900 which is the normal limit for cysis 2 on ultra. When I played BF3 maxed out on the ln2 it worked like a charm since that game never exceeded 1.5 gig memory usage at any time.

Can anyone tell me what the PLL voltage does ? I know via Afterburner you could change voltage,mem voltage, and pll.

PLL voltage if increased can make the Lightning stable on a certain overclock ? And what about mem voltage ?

You wont know for sure until you test in game play and see if the memory flushes correctly after 2000 or if it just hangs there and causes a crash.
The stock bios on my card is very good so that's what I'm using now.

I assume BF3 won't fill the memory at 1080p?

What game/benchmark can I use that will fill the memory at 1080p?

mem voltage help stabilize your memory OC

PLL is "phase locked loop." PLL voltage helps any device that is clocked against a reference clock, where the resulting clock speed is higher than the reference clock speed. As far as we need to be concerned, it can help stabilize the overall OC of your card.

Well I can tell you for sure that Crysis 2 with Maldo mod will. Not sure if I have any others that do. But yeah the Maldo mod is a easy install if you're new to mods, so it shouldn't be a problem. I would give that a go.

I don't remember checking usage for the New Dawn Nvidia demo, maybe try that too?

Not sure if this has been mentioned here already, but just wondering if anyone has tried flashing the Lightning BIOS that goes to 1.2v to a reference card. If so, were you able to up the voltage? Just asking because of all the talk about the modded Gigabyte 680 BIOS that people are flashing to their cards and saying they were able to up the voltage and therefore get better performance.

Beings I have a MSI 680 Twin Frozr, I would probably rather try flashing the Lightning BIOS to my card than using a modded Gigabyte BIOS if it would work.

No, the only cards which can flash to the MSI lightning bios are those with the same CHIL chip. As for the modded GTX 680 bios it allows 1.21vc on reference GTX 680's and you dont have to make any adjustments with MSI afterburner as the bios flash simply removes the 1.175 limitation and moves it up to 1.21.
