I have just taken another OCCT stress test (gpu). 1680*1050 @60hz for 1hour.

GPU fan = 100% (terrible whiny sound

)
max airflow in the case
no open case (i'll soon do a test with my case open and the windows of my room, to get the lowest possible.

idle: 42°C
load: 74°C (on a test for 1 hour)

I think that that isn't not that bad. (only to bad that this could only be achieved with stock cooling at 100%)

Any overclock potential?

I took the core speed to 701Mhz... and something very strange happened.
I did the exact same test on OCCT, the GPU test, exact same settings.

100% stock cooling, max airflow in the case, and the window of my room open.

I maxed out at 72°C!!! less then when the core was clocked on 660 (standard)
is this normal? Or is this because I didn't yet overclock the memory and thus the test couldn't fully stress the 701Mhz

I dunno

note: core speed and shader speeds were linked so when I did core speed to 701Mhz, shader speed was 1752 Mhz
