The system I just built:
i7-2600K
ASUS P8P67 PRO MB (Soon to be replaced by a new glitch-free version?)
8 GB Corsair Vengence RAM
XFX XPS-850W Power Supply
HAF 922 Case
2 X Galaxy GTX 470 1280MB Video Cards
Scythe Mugen CPU cooler
2 X Samsung F4 1TB HD
1 X ASUS DVD-RW drive
Windows 7 64 Bit Home Premium
I hooked it all up, loaded the OS, and it booted first time.
Then I OC'd the processor to 4.5GHz and it's stable as a rock.
I set the VCs in SLI mode, and get tremendous FPS!
Now I am trying to OC the cards, but all of my attempts have failed. I have tried the Galax XtremeTuner and the MSI Afterburner software. I can only manage mild OC (like going from 625MHz to 675MHz) before I either get artifacts, freezes or total video death and have to reboot.
I'm just wondering what might be the problem - the cards themselves, motherboard, or maybe the PSU not capable of driving that much power?
What do you guys think?
