Every program is going to have a different load and what is stable in one , wont be stable in another
I find running Kombustor for 25 minutes is pretty good proof of stability. watch for your temps and see if they stabilize , if they are still climbing , your only going to throttle the card nullifying your OC and just heating your house .
undervolting is finding a stable place your card will run at stock or close to stock speed and use much less power and you make much less heat
Yeah I personally like to tune the fan curve so that boost stays as constant as possible with no throttling.
Same here. I run with an undervolt as a rule. Makes no sense to me why there is so much voltage being pushed when these chips can achieve same or better performance at a lower power. Understand that NVIDIA must leave a wide margin to permit variations in silicon, but I have yet to test a card that needs greater than ~0.943V to achieve par performance.
