So I just received by stepup ssc+ today.  it runs cooler and quieter than the old sc I had.
 
I have reached a non crashing boost clock of 1550 without any extra voltage in heaven and valley.  I had to turn it down to 1530 so that I had absolutely no glitches in the benchmark.  the memory is at 7950 right now and I have pushed it right up to 8000 but once again I started getting some texture pop ins and such so I lowered it
 
I am running at 1530/7950 at stock voltage and 110% power limit.
 
asic is 67.

Looks like we have a winner, even with a "low" asic score.  Post some bench numbers dang it.

i am a bit disappointed in the voltage limit on the new ssc
mine will only take an extra 25mv, the slider goes up 87 but the card stops at 25
i have gotten 1525 out of it, and it doesnt even break a sweat, i think it could easily get 1600+ with more voltage
its got a 67% asic btw

Where is that reading coming from? Is that from precision or gpuz?

well tried to push it a little further today,  I can reach 1565MHZ and make it to the last section of heaven benchmark but then it freezes.  I may try lowering the memory overclock and see if that helps.
 
also I found in some cases my boost clock would drop by 12 so I upped the voltage to +20.  It needed it.  temps are always below 70C with an aggressive fan curve
 
here is a all max settings @1080p ran at full screen heaven benchmark.  very typical score of 1600 with this overclock.

Dude: you're getting better OC on your SSC than I did on my FTW+… O_O
Anyway, here's my promised 2nd video with benchmarks against a reference card: http://youtu.be/HEb2K25vIlU

Hope it helps some of you. Cheers. :)

me?
what reading?
the 1525 reading is from precision, but gpu-z shows the same on the sensors tab

That's about where I'm at.  At 1540 I start to see artifacts on my core clock, so I dropped it back to 1530.  Memory is sitting at 8120 (2030 according to GPU-Z).  At 8140 I started to see artifacts in OC Scanner memory burn, so I dropped it back a bit.
 
Don't have firestrike ultra, but at regular settings, I get:

The 25mv cap you referenced. You said you moved it up but the actual voltage didn't rise. Are you reading the mv increase from gpuz, precision or on the card through a multimeter.

Hint: precision is never correct, and gpuz is only close but still incorrect.

i dont have a multimeter to test, but the reading is from precision, ill check gpu-z tonight
both gpu-z and precision are saying the boost limiter is the voltage cap so thats what im basing it off of
 
edit: just checked, gpu-z says the same
