Okay, it's a screenshot of vantage with MSI Afterburner. Just GPU test 1, got 73.45 FPS average with single 295 @ 787/1696/1128. Max temp on either side of the GPU I believe was 46C. CPU is just at 4Ghz for now.
 
Now, after further testing it seems that's my limit clocks, I may be able to squeeze out 792Mhz core but I'll need more voltage for it. Thankfully Afterburner allows up to 1350mV.
 
If I can get my CPU up to 4.5-4.6Ghz for benching, I can see 29k or higher in my future.

saweet!  Thats on water alone?  man you really should look into building a chiller.

Yup it's just ambient water. The full loop consists of:
 
EK Supreme HF CPU block full nickel 
EVGA X58 SLI NB/SB block
EK GTX 295 dual PCB nickle+acetal
Laing DDC 18W version w/ Watercool DDC case(top)
Bitspower 250mm res
HWlabs Black Ice GTX 480 w/ 4xUltra Kazes
Primochill black 7/16in ID x 5/8in OD tubing
EK compression fittings all over with a couple bitspower adapters
 
It's so cool. I would love to get a Rampage 3 Extreme though, but the block for it is $150 so for now I'm staying with what I have. (E758)
 
Just plain water right now, I'd like to get 800+ core but dunno if I can, when I put it to 802 with 1225mV it just shut down instantly at 3d load.

red light?  I am trying to remember.  I haven't benched since last winter I don't think.  Not since the 980x & 400 series came out.

Hmm I'll have to do it again tonight I didn't see it redlight..

gah i need some 2000grit sand papper and 2500 grit.... the 1200 i have just wont make it shiny ><

anything greater then 800, is just for looks.  I haven't seen a difference between 800, and my usual 2000 grit.

Halo, the 295 will go past 800 core, but you'll need 1300mv to hold her steady.  And not any more, or less, just 1300.  I have no experience with afterburner on the 295.  Use precision, it works.

Okay Q I will try that later, I'm running CPU tests right now. Just passed @ 21x205, trying really hard to get it stable enough to add in the 22x multi. 22x 205 would be so epic. I'd love 4.5Ghz+ benchable.
 
Edit: 206. I think I'll bench fully now.

Hmm I think I'm PSU limited. It hates me. It's a ABS Tagan BZ1100. Functions fine but I have a feeling it's my second/main issue, next to the mobo. Need to get my R3E sometime and get off this 758.
 
@ Q with 1300 it shuts down instantly, GPU test 1 will load but as soon as it should start running 3d, boom. Lights out.
