How did you overclock that high i can only get 100 MHZ on core, and 500 on mem, anything over that it just crashes. I want my core clock to be around 150, 140 ish. I tried lowering my memory to 0 and 110 is the max it seems. I don't get it my temps idle at 27, asic of 82 something. Just frustrating 
 
Edit: Did you just run firestrike thats it? Or did you run all the test ( in the free version). Because when I run firestrike by itself its fine, but if I run all the test it crashes after 10-15 mins

Overclocking is a crapshoot. Your OC is still pretty good.

Well the frame increase can be huge, so that's why I'm doing it. But dose it matter if it crashes in the full test but not in firestrike? Because I had a higher overclock (one that would crash but in gaming it would be fine Witcher 3 max settings.

Again, overclocking past factory settings is a crapshoot. What works in one game/benchmark may not work in another. It's just the reality of OCing.

Oh ok, what do you use to validate your settings so to speak. Or do you not  mess with OC ?

I don't bench, but I know that basically if an OC passes a bench and obtains a score, that OC was successful. In games, well, it's a matter of just playing the game and if the system crashes, I know that particular OC isn't stable for that game. I really only play BF4 right now so the OC in my sig is specific to that game. When I FINALLY get the new Batman game, I can almost guarantee the stable OC for that game will be different. It has a lot to do with the game code as well as the driver code, in combination with your particular card(s).

Oh ok cool, well guess I can try just gaming, not put anything too crazy and see what happens.

TYIPICALLY (not always) you'll be able to get higher OCs benching because even though it induces higher stresses, it's for a much shorter duration. Just keep that in mind. Also, try increments of 13 on the clock.

Alright I will try that, whenever I get home its game time!

Keep us posted. Also, confirm your ASIC when you can. I'm interested in seeing your results.

Sure will, my ASIC was 82 or 83 I believe so which is why I'm surprised it couldn't OC that well. 

JerkMan
The other misconception is that ASIC is directly related to OC clocks. It's not, it's more related to voltage as it relates to overclocking. I'll find a good video later when I'm not on my phone that explains.

Awesome I would appreciate that greatly !

Hey guys with SLi Hybrids, can you post me a pic of your SLi setups with the Hybrids and what max temps u r getting with the bottom card?
 
I have tried a few different configurations but my bottom Hybrid keeps reaching 65°C :(

First, it's the top card that runs hotter usually. Mine is push/pull and runs about 50C. It was at about 55C before I added the second fans, so yours is running a little hot. I have intake fans in the front and bottom, and exhaust at the back that takes out the hot air almost directly from my Noctua heatsink. The HYBRIDS are mounted at the top as exhaust in a push/pull. It might be an airflow issue or a GPU issue, I don't know.

Is the hoses at the bottom of the pump instead of the top?
 
Also just for testing purposes, maybe switch them in spots just for one of those to answer my question that if it runs 65 down there I'm curious what it'll run on the top.

I have the pump on the sides. I will switch them around later tonight.

The HYBRID is oriented with the bottom of the reservoir by the tubes, so they should be at the bottom so there's no air in the system.

Is it possible to show me a picture how it is suppose to be then? And does everyone here use it like that?

You're going to put me on the spot lol. My rig is a work-in-progress, not pretty.

Hi I got some time to test today and diagonsed that my heating issue was due to using an aftermarket fan. Apparantly the cheap $9AUD Aerocool fan is no good as the radiator fan. As I mentioned previously the stock fan cable snapped when I was installing it, so I had resort to using a different fan.
 
So I tried that fan on each card and it would cause that card to heat up alot whilst the one using the stock fan will only go to max ~52°C.
 
That being said, is anyone using a different fan than the stock one here on their rad? Also, what is the stock fan brand and type, and can it be purchased from anywhere?

i would love to see your setup !

I have two that are mounted on the front of the case and the radiator is horizontal (not on top or bottom) and one that is on the bottom of the case.  All 3 stay about the same temps.
