looking nice man,not a bad score ither.

what are your temps and overclock

thankyou

just attempting overclocking it further but comes preoverclocked at

Core Clock :775 MHz

Shader Clock: 1550 MHz

Memory Clock : 4000 MHz

temps at idle around 35degrees and maxes at 73 but on average about 60-65
 
880/1760/2100 is achevble

even at stock volts,i get 31c idle 55c load at 60% fan speed but then i have 1 card

what fan speed is that fella?

was on auto for that, got it set to your specs and getting

card 1: 34c idle 72c load

card 2: 32c idle 63c load

edit: just ran 3d mark vantage and got just short of 30k with the oc
 
nice man i would inc the fan speed on the top card IMO to get it around the bottom temps bottom 60% top at 70%

altho i try and stay under 75c cos i dont no the 460's max yet

run heaven at them settings fella and see what you get,leave the heaven settings as they are tho
 
the 460's max is 104

nice vantage score i really should run it at my overclocks with my 768's not sure if my 3rd card in there would make a difference?
 
i would use the 3rd as physx it helped my score adding the 9800gtx

104c jaysus why am i pondering over 70c lol

i am thinkin of replacing the tim with noctua stuff when my cooler arives
 
yeah its already set as dedicated physx not sure if vantage supports a 3rd card set as that?

yeah man they can take a lot of heat not that u want them running that hot all the time!

if ur going to change the tim on the card talk to kup he has a proper arse of a time gettin the cooler back on after he done the same
 
Still got to run the heaven benchmark later, I was going to add my gtx 260 as a physx card but am unable to because of the layout of the mobo and the case, if you look at the pics it shows you.

They can go upto a 104c

I thought my 70s were touching the hotspot but maybe not
 
yeah i used to have the same prob with other cases not being able to fit in 3 double slot cards thats how i went with a 700D everything fits in here with a ton of extra space to boot! (oops just noticed its your mobo layout)

yeah man they can really take the heat like the 8, 9 2xx series all which are rated to take up to 104 aswell but like i said up there no way u want them running over 80 for long term life wise i would think and leave u with a pain in the but of RMA's 2 of my cards were from OCUK and ive heard a lot of horror stories from there rma's over the years
