Can anyone estimate how many volts could we apply to this card with the evbot port ???? 
 
I just cancelled my reference 780 bci really like to overclock the hell out of my parts ... but the waiting is killing me

They are including EVbot on the 780 Classified. In the video from CES on June 12, it was on there and pointed out by Jacob.

I think you're late, or in between to the party here. They removed it from the 680 classy, but it is back in pictures/renders of the 780 classy. What else would evbot do if not modify voltages? Don't hurt your brain trying to think of something else :D

 
Actually he is correct. Jacob confirmed in another thread that there will be no increased voltage, only power target.

So, you have to buy an EVBot to be able to modify ... the power target? Yikes, lol.

  That's exactly what I was thinking.

Could make all kinds of late, brain, and so on jokes but you'll get it from the other posts before this.
 
Anyway i quoted him and gave him the perfect solution for his overclock the hell out of my parts philosophy.  I'm sure putting money where his mouth/writing is and loosing warranty is no problem.

Always been like this.  This is why its down to the EVGA Classified or the Lightning.  EVGA you'll need the EVBot to hit 1.35v (I'm just assuming that will be the limit of the Classified 780 with the EVBot) and MSI if they continue with how they did the GTX 680L should be software controllable to 1.3v.

If I'm understanding correctly, EVBot on the 780 Classy will do nothing with the voltages. It will only allow you to raise the Power Target a little higher than usual.

That Titan is insane BTW!!

 
No....  The EVBot will allow you to permanently raise the voltage of a card.  GTX 780's are hitting 1.16~1.2, EVBot will allow you to hit 1.35v (assumption BTW) on the Classified 780.  Also the Classified version just like the 680 version will have a higher power target cap out of the box vs the reference versions.

Not according to this guy up the page a bit.

But it doesn't make sense to have EVBot for that, so I really don't know.

 
Needs to link the conformation before I believe it. 
 
and if its true   MSI can have my money.

Ok so now I'm confused. Some have said you can only adjust power target with evbot? While others say you can achieve higher than stock voltages? (Yes, I understand how powertarget works, but why does the wording matter if you can get more voltage out of it?) Can you no longer adjust powertarget via software? Allofmywhat.

I'm not sure anyone really knows, to be honest. Those that do are not talking right now. The way I'm imagining a Power Target adjust with EVBot is you just set a target that is above what Precision X can achieve, say 120%. So maybe you can go to 106% in Precision X, but then increase it further if you plug in an EVBot. I guess if your card could not use the full 1.2V with the software adjustable power target then having the EVBot in that case would kind of be like increasing voltage if it could then use the 1.2V after the EVBot Power Target increase.
 
I don't know, I'm waiting until it releases to see what the deal is. Just like last year we found out most of our information about them after they were in users' hands as EVGA seems pretty unwilling to really tell you what you're buying and the advantages/limitations of the Classified model up front.

But the EVBot on the GTX 680 Classified doesn't work like that, you, Andrew and myself already knows that.  The EVBot allows for hard volt modification of breaking past the 1.212v barrier and into 1.35v.  If its going to raise just the power target in PX software, there is absolutely no reason to buy it since a modded BIOS can do that (previous 680 Classified BIOS had it them set at 130 and 150% power target).

Yea, I know. That's why I'm confused, lol. We will just have to wait and see. I guess the only advantage of it raising the software would be that you don't have to mod your bios and void your warranty to do it, but yea I still can't imagine that EVBot would be used for that. 

1 or 2 weeks guys, then it'll be released I hope!

Here is the thread and post where Jacob said Classifieds will not get higher voltage, it was in an older thread about the 780 Hydro/Classified Hydro.

Million dollar question for Jacob:

From my understanding the board partners have some control how much over-voltage they allow on the 700 series cards. Will the hydro coppers or HC Classifieds be allowed higher voltage settings from the vanilla versions? Or are all EVGA cards set to allow the highest available voltage allowed per Nvidia? Could you provide any details in this area?

I bought a 680 Hydro Copper classified, and it is a beast! But was a little disappointed that many air cooled cards could match the performance in clock rates.

Thank you!

 
Voltage no, power target, yes to an extent. Depending on VRM/cooling solution.

I personally like the Swiftech Full Waterblocks.  Maybe cosmetically it isn't as appealing as the Aqua ones but nonetheless you get great temps from both.
