Guys. When OC-ing gpu, what do u guys usually OC. Gpu clock(Is this the same as core clock?), Boost clock(Why only certain models have boost clock?), memory clock?  Why some factory overclocked cards only oc gpu clock, certain models only oc boost clock. Confused 

Anyone can explain? tq

I also oc to find the max oc and benchmark , not running the oc on 24/7 or even in gaming

Hi, recently I noticed that my MSI 680 has been running a liltte hot, idling at 68c with its fan RPM at 1300-ish. Should I RMA it?

Wow so today i was going to update to the latest Afterburner and i notice it says "changes to the kepler voltage setting". On further reading, it seems to disable the core voltage completely - completely removing one the 670 pe selling point; Over-voltage.

So it's a good thing i came to check out this thread to see what others are saying about this new changes. And now reading that article I am a bit concerned. Are the changes supposed to be a safety measure or just Nvidia pushing manufacturers to adhere to certain performance standard in protecting their sales ? For what's it worth, I could not get a stable higher overclock when i bump up the Mv to 100 (with 2.2.3 AB). I can only run it at 50mV max, otherwise the card will be too unstable i.e. fluctuating boosts during the benchmark or gaming.

So the question now is do i stick to 2.2.3 AB and keep the 50mV setting or upgrade and nerf my PE ? It hasn't crashed at all for me and I've been running it 24/7. Temp doesn't exceed 70c but i'm worried about the long lasting effect it may have on the card. My old 460 was running at 1.100v btw and it still running strong on my other rig.

Appreciate your input guys.

+1 , nvidia is just boh sorng with what MSI did to their power edition and lightning series , where user get so much extra juice with low prices

for certain ppl there is a issue just like Tom raise up yesterday but some ppl like u & rest of the PE satisfied user still find this card very decent, overclockable than the others & of cuz no such issue. this conclude that there must be some kind of hidden agenda behind this issue that involved nvidia?

i'm not sure about running oc clock on 24/7, but i did play games for few hours using the oc setting, no issue. like i said before, i oc to play play only, just to find out the max stable oc, benchmark, that's all. i run on stock 24/7.

what is the conclusion for the issue then?

glad still to hear the bad 670 stories again..... remind me of my precious 680 huhu

heheheh...still not satisfied with gtx 670..wat's wrong that guy ha???...maybe most people like GTX 670 than 680???

Compare to MSI GTX680 Lightning and GTX680 Top ... which is more better ? ..... wat is d max core clock dat i can push more on top ? ...... is da apative vsync issue been settled ? .... ideal temp at 40...iss diz ok ?? ..... any tips tricks are most welcome ! .......

Hey guys, I considering to get MSI GTX670 Power Edition next month. It this a good choice ? Thinking to get cheap mouse/keyboard and cheaper CPU to fund a GTX680 instead.   

Im actually surprised at how many people are buying Windows 8 .

There are some games that Windows 8 outperforms 7 and in other games the situation is reversed. The benchmark battle can  be seen here. Benchmark Results Windows 8 vs 7

sad can't max GTX 670 in NFS MW 2012
medium setting smooth 50-60 fps

i hate blackrock studio. they made need for speed become a burnout-like game. damn disgusting. Since hot pursuit , every NFS doesnt attract me at all already. waiting for GRID 2 btw

i thought the new nfsmw has good reception. 

hey fellas...i m planning 2 swoop 2560*1600 monitor next year...will GTX670 run all games above 60fps in that resolution or i need 2 pay more 4 the GTX680???i no plan 2 setup SLI here

LOL...i 4got 2 mention that i want all the details in HIGH ever but the AA or AF or whatever extra graphical goodies disabled

how about 27" monitor 2560*1440 then???also quite equally stressful the GPU with the same settings above???i must mention that i still cannot accept anything lower than HIGH yet since far cry game in 2004 call me a graphics wh*re if u wish 2
