HI I just recently bought 2 - Evga 465GTX's 1GB and Put them in Sli, what would be my Max or the best Overclock I can Receive on these cards, im running a intel core i5 750 Quad Core @ 3.2ghz with 1600mhz DDR3 Dual Channel Ram, and A Coolermaster GX Series 750Watt Silver Edition 62amp Single 12V Rail. I've Looked around for the past week on what graphics cards to get and Im Settled with the 465 Gtx's, now I have EVGA Precision Tools and Nvidia System tools, Im Curious to what the Max MHZ for Each Setting I can take my cards to so that way I can get the Most Performance Out of Them In a SLI Configuration, Thanks EVeryone!

Who knows, each card is different, and there's a million variables that can alter your results. Just keep upping the frequency until it becomes unstable (aka artifacts appear), and then bump it down to the last working configuration.

if you use it for mostly gaming then he's probably correct..i do 3d animation so i need the bandwidth and speed for heavy rendering...i use 2 machines and it really speeds things up....for the price a i970 is probably your best bang for the buck.
